nd flavor(almost none). Visibly there’s less DT in the mix to my eye. I’ll be tossing the bulk and sticking to the 2oz tins....Read More

st not a straight white burley kind of guy, or maybe its something else. Upon opening its what you'd expect for the tin note. Some describe it as "barnyard" like, and others define it as a "hamster cage" aroma which I think is accurate. In the smoke its nutty with hints of cocoa. This blend is said to be Sweetened with a bit of molasses and maybe that comes through but its very light. I do enjoy it more than when I first tried it, but still not by a great margin. Now I do like burley as a complimentary leaf, great in blends like Windjammer and Sleepy Hollow, but for this particular blend it falls flat and is very "one note" throughout the bowl. It does have a good bit of nicotine, as burleys tend to do, so keep that mind. The deer tongue adds a bit of herbal-ness to the blend, but again very minimally. Some describe the taste of deertongue as "vanilla" and i would have to disagree. Try it the way its meant to be tried if you do happen to pick some up, in a savinellis bings favorite, listening to white christmas around the holidays, as I did, to get the true experience....Read More

This is horrible, I thought someone stuck an handful of weeds in my pipe that started to decay. This was just awful. Even if I don’t like a tobacco I can usually finish the pipe. This was wrong! I couldn’t clean out my pipe fast enough.
It smells awful also!

he project). It's an interesting bag to inhale - honeysuckle, dust, dry lumber. It looks like cube cut burley but darker.
Sampled in a MM Missouri Pride.
I don't really know where to go with this review. I like it - like I like it enough it's going to get a top rating - but I can hardly explain why I like it .
I think it Is because I honestly don't think I can explain to someone what deer tongue does for a blend. I even diagramed it in my notes - in a Venn diagram, I'd say it falls somewhere in the overlaps of Mint, Vanilla and Orange Blossom - but isn't any of those individually . I just know it's floral and tasty and I feel silly for avoiding it for so long .
This blend is as smooth as Bing Crosby's singing; that's for sure it may be to this point my favorite first impression of a burley blend. I want to cellar some of this, but I don't feel like I'm going to go real deep with it . My gut tells me maybe deer tongue has a shorter half-life than tobacco - I have ZERO scientific basis - like I said - gut - so I'll likely get a ½ lb. , set on it a bit, and then check it out in a while and see if I need to go deeper or just occasionally replenish the supply. ( I did the same with Mixture #79 until Sutliff went tits up, and then I just got 4 lbs. and said I hope this lasts me till my dirt nap.)
I enjoy this.. It is fun, feels kind of classy, and has a neat origin story.
My Rating: 5
