About This Pipe Tobacco

Extravagant is the right word to characterize this mixture. We have revolutionized the traditional old English art of blending. The main ingredient is the finest spicy smoky Latakia. By adding highly aromatic Black Cavendish, this blend becomes smoother. A small portion of Burley gives a slight toasted aroma, and a pinch of bright Virginia brings a subtle sweet note. Mellow, but yet full-bodied aromas of honey and fruit essences result in a unique flavor. This tobacco will surely be a delight.

I tried Sillem Black way too early in my pipe-smoking career, back when my technique could best be described as “stuff tobacco in hole, apply fire, wonder why everything tastes like hot lumber.”

Like quite a few blends, I eventually came back to it after finally learning that smoking a pipe i
s less about attacking the tobacco and more about politely suggesting that it burn.

And holy hell.

Silken Black absolutely blew me away this time.

There is a ridiculous amount going on here. You get this soft little touch of Latakia smoke lurking in the background, some gentle spice, dark fruit, citrus, and a subtle cherry note that never turns into cough-syrup territory. There’s also this mysterious boozy quality floating around in there liqueur, cordial, something along those lines along with soft vanilla and a very light honeyed sweetness.

I honestly have a hard time explaining the flavor because every few minutes another note walks into the room.

This definitely leans aromatic to me, but in the most grown-ass-man version of an aromatic imaginable. Nobody dumped cupcake frosting into the tobacco. Nobody assaulted a cherry tree. The toppings are integrated into the actual tobacco flavors instead of sitting on top screaming for attention.

If someone regularly smokes English blends like Quiet Nights, Chelsea Morning, or Meridian and told me they wanted to experiment with crossover blends or dip one cautious toe into aromatics, I would confidently hand them Silken Black.

Because this is exactly the kind of blend that is incredibly easy to screw up.

Too much Latakia and the toppings disappear.

Too much aromatic flavoring and suddenly you're smoking a Yankee Candle.

Silken Black somehow threads the needle.

Smoke. Spice. Fruit. Citrus. Cherry. Vanilla. A little booze. A little honey. Actual tobacco underneath all of it.

And somehow none of them are fighting.

She burns cool. She behaves herself. She has layers. She smells good.

You can take her home to Mom.

Hell, Mom might ask where you bought the tin.

Crispy, crunchy goodness!

Amazing looking tin and packaging but its not airtight. So by the time it goes from Sillem to your door its bone dry. Don't let that fool you though. This is probably one of the best tobaccos I've smoked all year. Its smooth, slightly sweet with a little spice. You don't have to chase the flavor, just sit back and sip the rainbow. Layered deliciousness that last to the very last sip. Its truly a banger. If the dryness bothers you, grab a Boveda and let it sit for a few days....Read More
Rehydrate it...

This is an excellent tobacco... and being Germany can't use Propylene Glycol..(spelling) makes it a better option for me. I love it.. very different. So if your tired of hunting that unicorn and trying every new thing on YTPC... give it a try. If it's too dry then rehydrate it.. it's worth it. Not my everyday smoke, but it's special when I do smoke it. Most of these blends start tasting the same to you as you try to find that "next cool thing" this is it. That Next Cool Thing. Very Different... Worth It....Read More

It has a wonderful English fragrance, but it's unnaturally dry. Please resolve the packaging issue.
Yes It Is Dry and Crumbly - But Taste it!

Reading reviews people are saying that the blend is super dry - and I agree.
But when I pour out the pinches for my pipe I crack the dry flakes even more into alnost a powder.
Smoking it?- DAMN DELICIOUS! Peppery, stays lit, and I am new to pipe smoking!
Easily one of my favorites.
