There is something familiar about this tobacco. Like a hint of a memory of a dream. Upon receiving it I opened it up to a very strong tin note. It reminded me of wine, very floral, like a port. The plug itself is very well packed. I was able to cut a slice and break it down to a usable consistency. When I packed my pipe and lit it, the smell of wine hit me again. Bringing with it that odd nostalgia whose origins I could not place. The smoke was soft, but held a flavor like that of a spiced cake. There was a sweetness to it, subtle but appreciated. The nicotine was strong enough that I didn't finish the bowl. But I must say I enjoyed my time in the dream. I do think I will find myself returning to it. And perhaps next time I will remember...Read More
Flavor?

Tin note is good, a lot of raisin and dark fired came through. The plug was well built and cut well enough. I'm about 3/4 of the way through the plug and it smokes just fine but I cannot figure out what is going on with the flavor. It is a very light, very odd flavor. Earthy plum maybe? I'll update if I can figure it out....Read More
Best flavored tobacco I've found yet!

This has been my go to smoke for the last 2 weeks. Definitely my favorite I've tried out of the old ones so far. The plug is a little sloppy but whatever topping they've used is the best flavor I've tasted thus far on my pipe smoking journey. The way they don't over do it is just superb. This is an all around excellent blend and it sold out so fast this time that next time around I will be stocking up for sure...Read More

Reminds me of a good cider and mead. Pairs well with hard cider (no surprise), mead (again, no surprise), apple juice, port wine, and a good cuppa strong tea.
Good and really mysterious

I bought a tin to try the thing cause I adore C&D , American Blends (the composition of the blend is almost classic AM, besides maybe Cavendish), and also mysteries: as the description says, this blend is dark and mysterious...
Which actually turned out to be true: you really feel something dark
and mysterious when smoking it, but in a good, adventurous way.
The blend is of middle strengh, and the smooke is smooth, cool and satisfying. The smell from the tin is just amazing - one of the best tobacco' smells ever.
The only problem is to understand the taste. To describe it is even more problematic: it's great and interesting, but still mysterious and confusing, though all the blend components are familiar to me.
And this aspect is both plus and minus to this tobacco: on one hand, people like puzzles and mysteries; on the other hand, we feel ourselves good only when we resolve those, even if after some time.
I guess I need more time and bowls to understand this tobacco till I come to my final conclusion.

Didn’t care too much with first bowl but after smoking for awhile, I can say that it is in fact improving and I’m finding myself hitting this up as a Sunday sampling with persistence.
Quite pleasant

Although somewhat ordinary smoke. Solid ripened Virginia with good bready taste, no bite, no bitterness. Tin note is fantastic. It's just that many blends are like that, and this one in not standing out. In the "old ones" series the mad fiddler is similar, but better and more interesting. Otherwise, good solid smoke....Read More
Mouthful of Deliciousness

Runs the gamut from sweet to spicy, and everything in between. Plug is gorgeous, slices smoothly, and the scent is fruity, fecund goodness. Shaved thin and packed medium in the bowl, burn rate and moisture level’s perfect, top to bottom, with minimal tamping. The real pleasure is the constant intermingling of flavors while smoking, from burley bass notes to katerini tympany and everything in between, with the accompanying round sweetness of Virginia and cavendish and the omnipresent, fruity grape or plum goodness… Altogether a good smoke....Read More

Plugs. Good times! The latest tin had a gorgeous plug, super dense and tight. Cut like a dream. As for the tobacco, still figuring it out. First couple smokes were underwhelming. Everyone is talking about powerful flavors... I'm not engaged in the right pipe apparently. I find it to be a fairly light smoke ... so doing something wrong???

Update: Ive moked most of the plug at this point and don't get anything anyone has talked about. No Apple or fruity topping at all. For me this is a very smooth smoke, little bit of barnyard funk in the background, smooth retrohale. The proportions are well balanced, maybe to well balanced. I can't make most of varietals out. The Cavendish, booze and Virginia is obvious but the rest is too subtle. Very smooth and cigar like. Not going to make my rotation however.

Tin note of spices, mild barbeque, and sugared Rasins. The dark brown, tan and black marbled plugs need cut thin with a razor or thin sharp knife. Rubs out easily, may need a bit of drying. Burns slow with a few extra relights. The strength is medium and nic is mild to medium. Flavoring is medium, with notes of licorice and stone fruits?. Taste is medium to full and consistent, with complex notes of dry earth, sweet raisin bread, floral, herbal grasses, lemon zest, peaches, spice, sour plums, smoky charred wood, toasted nuts, mildly spicy, sugary background note, and a moderately peppery retro. Team Virginia & Perique are barely leading Team Katerini & Cavendish with Kentucky supporting both. Room note is pleasant to tolerable, and aftertaste is my jam....Read More
