High Grade Turkish

Product: Daughters & Ryan Ramback 3.5oz
This is not a typical pipe blend, it's a pure Turkish mixture, meant for blending with, consisting of a few oriental leaf varieties - heavy on the Izmir and with no additives, casings or flavourings. It's therefore more dry than most pipe tobaccos an... Read More
d so also you are getting more leaf for your money. It is also, being a pure and unadulterated thinner ribbon cut Turkish tobacco, multi-purpose and an incredible RYO also. Along with Daughter's & Ryan Ramback Balkan blend this is probably the best oriental tobacco to use in replicating the old world Turkish/Egyptian blends. I love this stuff for blending. It makes any tobacco(s) smoother, more creamy and offers a soft and tingly Turkish spice and sweetness with delicate yet rich woodiness, a little earth and stewed fruit and some exotic spice and floral overtones.

I smoke a good bit of C & D Turkish. SP was out of it in bulk when I placed my last order. I've smoked a good bit of D & R Perique blends along the way and I've enjoyed them. So, I didn't hesitate to order this Turkish. Fresh sweet tin note, which un... Read More
fortunately did not necessarily equate with flavor. It is what it is. Next time, I will buy a C & D tin of Turkish if bulk isn't available. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not going to let this go to waste but I won't buy this again. There are too many other quality Turkish variants available, but I thought it was worth a shot. This would probably be great for RYO. Read Less
Tastes like cigarette tobacco

Product: Daughters & Ryan Ramback 3.5oz
This blend lacks the taste, aroma and flavor of a typical pipe tobacco and the smoke resembles more of a cigarette smoke. Definitely not my cup of tea. May be OK for blending but I would not smoke it straight.

This tobacco comes in a plastic container and is not hermeticlly sealed. The cut is a long thin ribbon/shag somewhat dry. Tin aroma is unusual as it smells like cigarette tobacco-a sweet Virginia or something else? After packing a pipeful and lightin... Read More
g it the aroma and taste is like smoking a cigarette. A sickly sweet smell and taste, very peppery and lots of tonge bite even when sipped slowly. I had to empty my pipe as I found this mixture unsmokeable. A great disappointment. I will celler it and see what happens. IMHO I do not reccommend this mixture. Read Less
