HU CLASSIC

Product: HU Director's Cut 100g
I like to dry it out some. Flavor really comes out with the breath method. Stays lit well with a few relights, last third the flavors really pop, mild nic hit, a medium strength smoke,could be repeated during your smoking day. Well worth stocking up on.
Amazing blend

This blend has alot to offer. Through the bowl each of the components will have their time to shine. There are times the perique comes through with its spice and the Virginia's with the fruitiness we all enjoy. The burley and Kentucky really compliment the bowl through out the smokiness along with the nutty almost cocoa flavor from the burley really keep the blend dynamic. I did get a few floral notes throughout the first half which was surprising since I normally associate that with Orientals. I did notice a hint of what might be a coffee note once in a while. This is a blend that will hold your attention through the whole bowl and keeps each puff interesting...Read More
Heavily Cased

Product: HU Director's Cut 100g
This tobacco is soaking wet in the tin and I do believe much of that is the heavy vanilla/maple-ish casing that it is soaked with. Nowhere in the product description, but mentioned in reviews from other sources, this additive overwhelms any other flavors this blend may have. Basically, it is a cheap aromatic you might find at a 7-11. If you want a cheap aromatic, buy a pound of Lane bulk for the price. If you want to pay $30 for a tin of Virginia tobacco, buy a tin of Solani 633 because it is worth it.
I can only hope this stuff has not ghosted the pipe I smoked it in.

Ain't an Aromatic
January 21, 2025
Product: HU Director's Cut 100g
This is one tasty blend. I imagine it's like Bullseye if it had a little Kentucky in it and no Cavendish. Reminds of MacBaren Stockton or the Royal blend. Not sure why someone left a review saying this is a soaking wet aromatic cus they're wrong! Haha
Decent

Good size, tin note was ok, contents were a tad moist. Loaded up a good bowl and let it get ready for the morning. As you move down the bowl the flavor improves. I am going to age the other four tins for 18 months or so.
Good blend

This is an exceptional blend a bit out of the ordinary. Really does taste exactly as you would expect if you’re familiar with HU blends a nice touch with the extra work of the coins. Not a blend for me a the price point but everyone should get a couple tins to try and to age.

Of the HU blends I have sampled this is a blend more to my tastes.
Not as "aromatic" as others with a solid flavor profile and great manners in the bowl.
Some have compared this blend to say escudo rolls and I can confidently say escudo is no competition to the excellent tobacco and quality ma
nufacture of directors cut.
Highly recommend to all Enthusiasts and most newcomers looking for a fine flavor profile in a traditional form.

Good, but overhyped

Product: HU Director's Cut 100g
Going into this, I was very excited to taste the so-called legendary blend of HU tobaccos. However, this experience has left me wanting. It's good, honestly very good. The VAs mesh very well with the perique, but it leaves the Burley behind. The chocolate flavor of the Burley is muted greatly by the vanilla topping and robust VAs. In all, I like this blend, but it didn't wow me. It's far outclassed by Dark Moor. Update. I've finished my tin, and I'm truly not impressed. It's good, but it's also a bity, topped to the gills mess. It is delicious, but overall leaves me wishing I was smoking Dark Moor. I'm lowering the score to 3 stars....Read More
One of the best blends
November 15, 2024
Product: HU Director's Cut 100g
I’m fairly new to pipe smoking, so I hadn’t had a chance to try HU. I was pleasantly surprised to see it available on several US tobacconist’s sites for sale. After smoking a few bowls of the Director’s Cut I feel that I can safely say this is an outstanding blend. Each individual tobacco used can be tasted through nearly every puff. Smooth, flavorful, and oh so creamy, the tobaccos used seem to be superior quality. I mean most of what we get today is high standards, but this just seems outstanding. The dark fired Kentucky adds a great smokey flavor that accents the virginia, perique, and burley. Smokey, nutty, spicy, woody, fruity- a ton of great flavors. Burns well and cool. A slight roughness near the end but never harsh. If you want a detailed review by a long time smoker, check out reviews by Jiminks, or Jim Amash, on a few tobacco review sites. Apparently, the blend has been slightly changed at times, but hopefully now, it’s close to what Hans meant for it to be in the beginning. Edit: Im not sure why anyone would say this has maple or vanilla flavoring, or is wet in the tin. Ignore those comments, Director’s Cut may have a slight sugar topping, but it certainly isnt maple or vanilla! Certainly isnt wet in the tin. It has a bit of moisture but this isnt molto dulce at all. Burns well right out ofcthe tin with very little dottle....Read More
