I know these are hyped up but well worth the hunt
Amazing sweetness without any topping

Product: Esoterica And So To Bed 2oz
Really high quality stuff with an amazing natural sweetness and richness without any topping to get there. Glad I was able to get a tin along with a few other esoterica blends. Still, if it was more easily available it's distinctive sweetness would p... Read More
robably not become an every day smoke for me.It's definitely crave worthy like a dessert, but it's just not the meat and potatoes for me. Read Less
New Favorite II

Product: Esoterica And So To Bed 2oz
I have to agree with Phantom Wolfe's assessment of this blend. It pretty much mirrors my first experience as well. Pure delight to the very bottom of the bowl. This will be an all day smoke I am sure.

Product: Esoterica And So To Bed 2oz
Sweet, smokey, chocolatey with some sour cinnamon and woodiness. It reminds me of an English holiday fruit pudding in smoke form. A true symphony of a blend. From the first bowl, I was sold. I am usually a bit of a cynic but I have yet to smoke... Read More
a blend by Germaine's that isn't special and worthy of the hype. The only exception here is how freaking exceptional this smoke is. If you disagree, feel free to sell me yours. haha
Impossible to get tongue bite. Can be an all-day. It has been for me. Read Less

抢了一个大包宵夜。不管好抽不抽,E家的草先屯了再说!
Product: Esoterica And So To Bed 8oz
同样是友人赠与的陈年宵夜,闻起来L味极淡,抽吸间烟气细滑,带有淡淡的烟熏和奶油味道,有点像是在喝脱脂牛奶,口中甜味奶味都很淡,烟气平衡口味较好。

N1 blend of esoterica
Outstandingly smooth.

Product: Esoterica And So To Bed 2oz
I could not think of a more appropriate name for this tobacco. I can see why it's so hard to get ahold of. The tin note reminds me of a mellower nightcap from dunhill without that figgy background scent. The smooth sweet mellow smoke that follows is ... Read More
awe inspiring. This may be an English by name but the flavor is so mellow that I can hardly think of it as one. Very relaxing and flavorful, it's going on my watch list. Read Less
Reminds Me Of Christmas.

Product: Esoterica And So To Bed 2oz
Another great smoke in the Esoterica line up. I wouldn't go into this one thinking it's going to be a full bodied English blend. To me it's more of a lightly topped VA/Oriental blend with a faint whisper of Latakia. The tin note is absolutely delicio... Read More
us and I almost want to eat it but I'm sure the flavor comes through much better in the smoke. I see folks saying that it's topped with apricot but I've also heard that this was the equivalent to Smokers Haven 20th Anniversary Blend, which is topped with an ale. I don't get any apricot in the flavor so I'm not quite sure where ya'll are coming up with that? This is a very nice one indeed and people that like Pembroke should really enjoy this one as well. This one won't make it into my regular rotation but is nice to have some around for the change of pace. Definitely worth trying out if you happen to come by it. Those sensitive to nicotine should have no problems here as it's a perdy darn light blend... a bit too light for my tastes. Read Less

A soothing smooth and rich smoke

Product: Esoterica And So To Bed 8oz
The name of the blend says it all, this a smooth, balanced, easy smoking blend, rich and satisfying. I really enjoy this blend especially as a last bowl of the day.
Good baccy

A sweet and mild tobacco to me. The latakia is noticed, but mildly in this mixture. I like this tobacco, a balanced tobacco in my opinion much more than penzance.

Product: Esoterica And So To Bed 2oz
Tin note of sweet spices, sour dark fruit and smoke. Tobacco is a shag cut of brown, dark brown and black with a little tan mixed in. Moisture content is ok. Some pipe smokers will want to dry this a bit. Burns moderately fast with few relights. The ... Read More
strength is medium and nic is mild. No topping detected. Taste is medium and very consistent, with notes of sweet smoky, spices, peaty fermented hay, wood, floral, earthy, tangy dark fruit, sugar, savory, toast, tart musty bitterness, mildly spicy, mild cocoa, an herbal sweet grassy background note, and a peppery retro. Virginia is leading with Latakia, Maryland and Oriental/Turkish supporting. Room note is tolerable, and aftertaste is great. Read Less
The long wait is over
December 07, 2022
Product: Esoterica And So To Bed 2oz
Because of the expectation, it's nothing special. Tin note: English. You may be tempted to smoke it right out of the tin. Don’t! If you do it will smoke hot right from the first light and taste like Presbyterian Reformation with a little Latakia adde... Read More

Let your pinches dry out for at least 30 minutes so that some of their “special process” dissipates. Smoke delicately at an adagio cadence with pauses in between puffs. You should have to relight several times. The taste will then be more savory-sweet. Not worth the very long wait on a one-time email alert list. Read Less

And So to Bed
October 02, 2020
Product: Esoterica And So To Bed 2oz
A great blend, but honestly it’s probably not worth the trouble of hunting it down, when there are so many amazing blends out there that are readily available. The topping is apricot, mostly, and is not quite as obvious as the topping in Pembroke in ... Read More

More of an Aromatic
August 07, 2020
Product: Esoterica And So To Bed 8oz
This is more of an aromatic I my opinion or a crossover. I wouldn’t call it an English blend. I don’t taste a natural sweetness. It’s more of a topping like aromatics have. I get the same weird artificial waxy plastic taste from aromatics. It’s not a... Read More
bad smoke, but not worth the hype. Into my first bowl I don’t feel any bite and it seems to smoke cool which is good. I purchased this from a local as it’s sold out everywhere online. I was not impressed. Read Less

A less smoky, but more rustic english. Great leathery cocoa with some woody and bread back notes. Some sweetness but mild. Fantastic
'And so to bed'
March 31, 2015
Product: Esoterica And So To Bed 2oz
From Phill C.
I shamefully confess that with the provocative moniker ‘And so to bed’ I could barely resist trying this offering from UK tobacco brand Esoterica Tobacciana.
‘And so to bed’ arrives in a gold, flat finished tin topped with a... Read More
label that, to be frank, appears as if it was run off at the ink jet printer in the office. The script on the label, while a bit busy, is in keeping with the provocative title. Crack open the tin and find a simple fan-fold wrap with a plain tissue disk covering the tobacco.
Tightly packed, ribbon cut. Pleasantly clean, almost crisp aroma with the slightest impression of liquor and, perhaps, pepper? It loaded easily into my flat-bottomed stovepipe briar and I fired it up.
It lit quickly but to be frank, I work a bit initially to keep the fire going. It was a cool, very pleasant draw. So cool, in fact, I had to check that I was actually smoking. The gentle white smoke that curled reassuringly out of my bowl surrounded us with a fine aromatic that most non-smokers would find appealing.
It settled into a good regular burn and my smooth briar began to warm up. About halfway into the bowl I felt the first gentle bite on my tongue. Not unpleasant at all. This would be the place to set the pipe aside if your night was not to be spent alone.
Full flavor bloom as the bowl burns to a clean finish with no ashy taste, no bitterness and only the slightest reflux from the bowl.
‘And so to bed” was well received by all club members that day. 8 out of 10. Always store beer in dark places. Read Less
