A beautifully smooth, full, cool, and delicious smoke!

This is my all time favorite pipe tobacco. To me this blend is perfect. I love everything about it. I have only tried about 20 other blends but among everything I have smoked nothing has yet to come close to Billy Budd. This is a blend that is good when you first try it, great when you really sit with it, and only grows better with time. This is my happy place pipe tobacco that I smoke on my porch. I am a huge fan....Read More

A Unicorn in The Cellar

I just popped a tin of this I’d let age for 5 years, and whoa! It’s got so much going on, and by mid bowl you’re just along for the ride. For such a strong and forward tobacco, there is a pleasant subtle sweetness that creeps in. It’s reminiscent of a smoldering campfire and roasted nuts. No tongue bite or gurgle whatsoever and smooth as silk until the last wisp of smoke. Maybe the time in the can mellowed out the sharp edges. Either way, I’m glad I let it age a while....Read More

Incredible hybrid experience

I love this blend so much. The cigar leaf brings that weight and volume of smoke I like cigars for, but the sweet and deep muskiness I love from pipe tobacco. Good amount of nicotine thanks to the Burley, perfect latakia seasoning to balance it out. This one's a hit with the pipe buddies too. Great job, this one is in the permanent collection, I'd be bummed to be without it....Read More

a good, well-balanced smoke

I think G.L. Please's Robusto is better if you want a blend with some that taste more like a Maduro wrapped cigar. The Cigar Leaf in this is scarce and just tastes like spicy, natural wrapper cigar leaf. This is a good, well-balanced smoke though. There's nothing gimmicky or fancy about it. Personally, it's one that I always want to have around. Next time I get some, I'll probably blend in some more cigar leaf with it....Read More

Full, cool smoking and similar to the cigar smoking.

I have mostly gone back to cigars and have not smoked my pipes in the warm months. But in winter, I love this blend because it is similar to smoking a cigar. This is the coolest smoking pipe blend I have found.
And, this, it one of the only pipe blends I can smoke any more.
