Just okay

This is just okay. I don’t love it or hate it. Price was good to give it a shot.
Like chocolate after storage a year

Product: Half and Half Half and Half 1.5oz
Was dissatisfied at first smoke - couldn't keep it lit and it had a sour taste, but after cracking the mason jar it had been put into about a year ago and giving it a second go the tobacco came through. It's got a rich chocolate-y flavour and burns right down to the bottom in a single light - my only issue with it now is it doesn't last as long as I'd like 😅...Read More
In a pinch
April 15, 2026
Product: Half and Half Half and Half 1.5oz
A codger that is just so so. The flavorings are on the lighter side. Smokes hotter than some aromatics. A positive note, its available all over. Easy enough to grab it in a pinch. The room note has that nostalgic smell. I love it, my wife says its too close to the smell of a cigarette. Overall its an okay smoke....Read More
Hot Chocolate

Product: Half and Half Half and Half 1.5oz
Light chocolate flavor, burns really hot, must smoke really slow to avoid bites, need a lot of re-lighting. Tried it with RYO, no luck. Won't buy again.
Listen to codgers, they know.

Lately, I've been strolling down Codger Lane quite a bit. After years of seeking only premium tins like anything less was not worth my time, I've learned that the more I think I know about tobacco, the more I have yet to learn. To my surprise, with rare exception, I have found that time-honored so-called “codger” blends are some of the best. Half and Half is no exception. Based on the simple principal of offering an equally Virginia/Burley blend when the majority of pipe tobaccos were either mostly or all Burley, Half and Half made it's own niche. It has a mellow pleasant smell in the pouch/can, and most people enjoy the lingering aroma in the room. It's probably one of three aromas that people lovingly identify as someone smoking a pipe, even if they know nothing about pipes and tobacco. The textures are soft and easy to load, catch light and burn at a nice rate, and the flavor is consistent from matches to ashes. The taste is mild and pleasant. It reminds me of sweet corn, but the formula contains many different flavors and notes from the common alcohol/anise combo to less common kitchen spices and nuts. A flavor profile often imitated, Half and Half is the original in its category. Like many old recipes, it's good because there's nothing wrong. It doesn't need to change or improve, it will always be successful. Although it's production has changed hands a few times, I've heard it said it remains remarkably unchanged. Listen to codgers, they know. Half and Half continues to have widespread adoration because it was right from the start. Enjoy....Read More
