It...Needs Work

Product: Rivertown Tobacco Works Oak & Ember Bulk
This is the first blend in the new line that I've tried, and I have to be honest and say that I'm pretty disappointed. In a world where we still have good burley-based codger blends, there's not really a defensible reason to pick this over the others. It is bland, the smoke is acrid, and I couldn't even smoke two bowls before I had to put it down for good.

I genuinely love the concept of these bulk blends coming out, but this one needs to be taken back to the drawing board.

Great for what it is

This is a hearty blend that is very forgiving. A wonderful combination of straight tobaccos forming a very earthy tobacco experience with a bit of sweetness in the background.
Decent blend

So I thought I'd give it a try and glad I did. It's nothing special nor anything terrible. It's a little spicy, nutty and a hint of sweetness in the background. To be honest, I'm just going to stick with Haunted Bookshop and Pegasus as my bulk Burley purchase.
Very nice Burley blend

Deep, rich, spicy, chocolately, and nutty dark burley throughout, but the red va is right along beside it with its sweetness and black tea notes. Has a creamy textured finish to every puff. It's a little rough around the edges, but that's to be expected of a dark burley. There is some ready rubbed mixed in. This blend goes hand in hand with a cup of coffee....Read More
It's nice. Pleasant and straightforward.

This is what I call a "clean" burley taste. The Virginia is a little sweet and a nice compliment. This is just a pleasant, straightforward VaBur. (Or should I say BurVa,, because it's definitely burley forward.) This was the first of the new Rivertown blends I checked out because I liked the description. Edit: After a few smokes, maybe it reminds me a little of Chatham Manor, which is going away. Somewhat similar....Read More
Just 3★...for now. Time will tell...

Product: Rivertown Tobacco Works Oak & Ember Bulk
I purchased these four, 4oz, samples of the RTW blends: Sunrise Select__Oak & Ember__Crimson Shadow__Mystic Moor. This one is the second blend I tried...and well, it's OK. I tried Sunrise Select first, Oak & Ember second, Crimson Shadow, and Mystic Moor lastly. All of these I tried are just so-so. They are pure 'T' but they are mild and, well, a bit bland/fresh. Perhaps perfect for an all day smoker, maybe, or for blending something in to add some flavor/taste. I just removed Sunrise Select from the oven; after 2.5 hrs @ 190°F. I'll give it a couple of weeks in its jar before going round two with it and see if it improves. I'll likely stove this and the others as well. And then I will *Update* my reviews of these four RTW samples. My 3★ rating, for me...so you know, is what I rate blends when they leave me on the fence; where the 2★-side is "not likely going to buy again" and the 4★-side is "likely going to keep around."...Read More
