s, Burley and Black Cavendish and has a honey topping.
Sampled for three bowls in a MM Missouri Pride (previously conditioned).
Cards in the table - C&D knows how to marry honey with Virginia tobacco. This blend is no exception. The honey note is just forward enough to be a star, but not overpowering nor saccharine sweet.
There’s nice thing here is balance. One side of the equation you have sweet honey and red Virginia, and on the other side you have that quality C&D burley and Perique. This all makes for a nice balanced meal served atop the black cavendish.
Speaking of - IF I were to make it more to my liking, that black cavendish would dial down a bit, the the balance it takes away be filled with Perique and more Virginia. That’s just me tho.
I did notice that towards the end of all three bowls the honey wanes and the Perique swells. Nice.
This aro is different - and holds its own. I bet in cooler weather I’d rate it higher - it’s almost like a sophisticated or elevated codger blend IMO. I could see it sold by the tub and having legion of dedicated fans.
It’s good enough I wouldn’t mind having a little in hand, and unique enough that it has its own identity and could be “craved” specifically at times.
My rating: 3 - This is good and I would buy It on sale, or to get free shipping.
This is the 17th C&D bulk blend of 101 I am reviewing , based on the Smoking Pipes rating, from lowest to highest....Read More

que, this one would be uneventful. There's more flavor on the first half, but the last half has a fairly monotone dark burley note with sparks of flavor from other leaf. This is a solid and satisfying mixture. Nicotine is 2.5 out of 5....Read More

I want to write this review now because I've never smoked this blend. I have never expected a tobacco to be top of the world. O always smoke every pipe with a open mind and a restful spirit. I injoy smoking my pipe and at the end of the day I've never had a tobacco I couldn't smoke

For me there is nothing. Just hot smoke. No flavor of anything. However it packs well.

No flavor whatsoever. Smoked three bowls in a meerschaum pipe on different occasions with same results. This is the first C&D blend I have been truly disappointed in. ☹

my morning coffee tomorrow. I've been looking for something lighter to go in my rotation.
As a side note, I bet that adding something more robust to cut the sweet would result in an all-day blend....Read More

te is not all that powerful but it goes well with a cup of coffee as a first bowl after b'fast. As mentioned, it packs nicely and burns smoothly. I would call it a pleasant smoke and just leave it at that....Read More
