I could definitely smoke this blend all day. I purchased 2 tins. Already smoked one and the other is cellared away for a later date. I will be buying more to keep in the rotation and add to the cellar. Thumbs up from me.

isn't as bright as other VaPers. The tin note is raisins and figs and the smoke remains true to that impression. The richness of the DFK really moves the sweetness from sugar to more of a molasses vibe. It smokes cool but could get out of hand if you're not paying attention. I recommend trying it if you haven't or are curious....Read More

pe. A week and a half later I was back at the same shop picking up another two tins, one to smoke and one to cellar (I'd completely smoked through that first tin in that time.) I now have over half a dozen aging away happily in my cellar, and plan to add even more to that number. When I discovered this blend, I discovered my new favorite....Read More

t with a little kick from the perique. The dark fired burley adds just enough toasty flavor to round it out perfectly. Smokes great, tastes great, a perfect medium strength no nonsense tobacco....Read More

ave added 4 more to my cart for the next round of spending money secretly. I won’t bother going into flavors etc as there’s plenty out there. I’m not disappointed at all and this to me, seems that it would age very well too. That said, it’s great right out of the tin. This one dated about 1 year....Read More
Still Not a Fan

perique and DFK I always expect a flavor-bomb. Stewed fruits and umami spice from the perique, smokey robustness from the DFK, darkly sweet grass and hay from the dark Virginias. I'm just not getting those from MSC. It could be the pipe, a Peterson 150, perhaps a bit too shallow and not narrow enough to let the Virginias do their thing, but somehow I doubt it....Read More

Smooth Sweet and a Bit Tangy with a bit of Spice.

good bit of nicotine. My guess is it's African and not American. It's smooth enough to smoke all day and the lingering artificial sweetness keeps the ashy aftertaste away. Kohlhase Kopp is known for adding sugar, and that artificial sweetness can sometimes sublimate the natural nuance we get from VA. The Dark VA used in this is on the woody side. Added sugar isn't a bad thing, but I prefer the more rustic and natural flavor of Cornell and Diehl. Nicotine is 3 out of 5....Read More

I've smoked and loved the flake version of this, this rubbed version is good but not as good as the flake.
