Truly a wonderful smoke, light beautifully packs easy and is just all around pleasant and delicious. Always leaves a guy looking for another bowl!

Snug Harbor is a fairly good, fairly average English aromatic. I am pleased to report that it is more English than aromatic, and that the latakias and orientals are not drowned out by the topping. Somewhat muted, perhaps, but not swallowed whole. It is pretty good, and I would smoke it again, but I like Kramer’s Cary Grant better....Read More

This a charming mix. Mellow, has spicy notes, latakia helps out every now and then but doesn't dominate, there is a brightness and nutty note, the liquor top note just rounds things out. It is snug for sure, i would give it a shot

Its snug; slight spice in between latakia, some nutty elements, Orientals adds a well rounded note. The topping solidifies the blend without adding confusion to the flavor of the blend

Another Bob Runowski subtle wonder! Snug Harbor is the first new English/Aro I've tried in years. Totally love this blend. Its light, its delicious and packs a nice punch. This is going on my all day smoke list. You can light it and forget it. The topping is mildly noticeable at the start of a bowl but dwindles off to let the natural tobacco flavors take the staring role. The Burley and Oriental seem to dominate, teaming up for a consistent nutty, mild tart/sour note. That base is spiced up a notch with smokey note of Latakia, always on stage but way in the back. The perique, which is subtle, adds dark fruit and sweetness. The classic Runowski robust earthy C&D burley flavor is obvious, the topping and blending has it singing a slightly sweeter note than usual. If you're a fan of Bob's Pegasus blend, Haunted Bookshop or OJK, you will find familiar, but much lighter and sweet notes here. Highly recommend....Read More
Hope I just got a bad batch

Bough an ounce of this more than a half a year ago. The tin note let me down then, so I just decided to let it age a bit. Today I gave it a chance. Where to begin: the tin note remained the same: something sweet and sour, almost like fermented fruit left in the sun to rot. As I've come across blends that smelled nasty but tasted great, I filled my pipe. Oh boy...the tin tone goes into the taste: the smell sour sweet fermented taste, and not in the orientals sour taste, no, the same rotten fruits taste again. The latakia was a bit forward and kind of harsh, I would have expected the aging to tone and mellow it down, but it did not happen. Could not detect the perique. The only good thing I can say about this is that the bottom of the bowl gave the classic medium english blend taste. I'm not hating on C&D, as my all time favorite blend is Sam's blend. I really hope this was just a bad batch I got. Bottom line is this is not an english aromatic and it really is not enjoyable....Read More

A really good blend of burleys and Orientals, nothing overpowers the other flavors, with just a touch of sweetness

This is like Odessa with a top note. Orientals and Burley with perique, what a unique blend. For me, smoking something with perique is like eating a chinese dish with szechuan peppercorns, that tingling feeling it gives to the mouth. Too much and it's uncomfortable, that's how I felt about Snug Harbor. For me it was just too tingling to be enjoyable. Otherwise it's an ok blend. I'll smoke it on occasion, but it won't be in my rotation....Read More

It's a true English mix with enough latakia. It has a very delicate flavor of liquor. Strength is medium and sufficient nicotine. A real pleasure.
