Robert McConnell Special London Mild
(3.00)
A blend of brights and orange leaf hides a rich flavour that comes out in the smoking. Very pleasant, without bite, the tobacco is distinctive and mellow, and brings back the flavour of a real blend.

I have a brother who used to smoke roll your own cigarettes before switching to a pipe. I had a tn of this open and was smoking it when he came by the house one afternoon. I told him this pipe tobacco had a somewhat bitter-sweet taste and was not very strong. I thought it might make a good RYO. My brother whipped out his pocked knife and cut the strands up a bit and rolled one. He loved it and said it burned slow for a cigarette. I thought the blend burned fast for a pipe. The flavor was great and the shag cut made for a wonderful presentation... for both of us!

..an exceptional shag for the pipe! This very fine cut is simply wonderful...pleasant taste and aroma and is easy to pack, light, and enjoy a good 30 minute smoke(group 4-5 size pipe).
Similar to Wills, Three Castles in color yet a different taste. Very earthy, some hay like notes, but overall, a good tobacco taste. Keeping it a bit moist helps control burn rate and enhances the taste and flavor.
I consider this one of the five best Virginia shag cut tobaccos available today and highly recommend it. Like any shag smoked in a pipe...puff slowly, tamp lightly, and be rewarded with a very nice smoke!
Excellent with Coffee, hot tea, or with a wee dram of single malt...
...a pipe is to be savored...
