Scandinavian Tobacco Group (STG) Lincoln Aromatic Cavendish
(1.50)
Here is a unique blend made from pressed and fermented Virginia, burley, and Oriental tobaccos. The outcome is a delicate and round cavendish tobacco blend.
Notes: This blend has been around since the early 1960s in Germany, a time when pipe smoking was considered to be very debonnaire. The sales slogan was, "Der Mann, der Lincoln raucht...," which translates as, "The man who smokes Lincoln..." This was always couples with a photo of a ruggedly handsome man doing some very manly activity (akin in a way with the types of images used to market Camel or Marlboro cigarrettes). Though the brand has changed hands several times, it has undergone little change and withstood the test of time. It remains a favorite blend in many a pipe smoker's rotation.

The nutty, earthy, woody, lightly molasses sweet burley takes the lead. The mildly floral, earthy, woody, fairly spicy, dry and sour Oriental is a supporting player. The grassy, fairly citrusy Virginia isn’t far behind the Orientals in terms of the effect it has in this mixture. The tobaccos are cut in the cavendish style. There is an extremely light topping of some kind that I can’t define. The strength and nic-hit are a couple steps past the mild level, while the taste is almost on the center of mild to medium. The spice content is high, and will bite your tongue unless you slow smoke it. You’ll always notice the tingle. It also gives me a dry mouth effect. Burns a little hot and clean at a reasonable with a mostly consistent sweet, spicy and lightly savory flavor from beginning to end. Leaves little dampness in the bowl, and requires an average number of relights. Has a lingering tingly after taste. The room note is moderately pleasant. It’s an all day smoke. Because the bite potential is strong, I give this one star. Two and a half stars for flavor, which is a little less complex than this review makes it seem.
