Super Value: English Mixture 1.5oz Pipe Tobacco

So I picked up a pouch of this today at a local cigarette shop. I didn't know what to expect but when I opened it, it was, well, shocking. It smelled like hay, grass with a hint of cow $hit and burnt electrical wiring. Seeing as this is my first go at an English tobacco, I gave it a try. Tasted about the same as above but I could pick out the peppery taste that I am looking for. I'll finish the pouch or put it in a jar for a couple of months but it may be so dry it turns to snuff. Win, Win I guess....Read More

Flavorful & smooth. Not the medium nic hit shown, but nic not absent either. Sort of a Carter Hall blending approach to a light English.

Before you pass judgment based on the totally generic cheapo sounding name, know that this brand is actually produced by Sutliff. When I learned this, I was intrigued. Then, I kept seeing video reviews claiming this was actually good stuff, so I bought a pouch to try. I consider this a good blend for an aromatic smoker to try, NOT someone who's already into English blends. As English blends go, Super Value: English Mixture is about as far away from top shelf as it gets. However, to my surprise this is not all that bad and actually quite pleasant. The reviews I had seen nailed it! It may be mass market tobacco, but it's far from what you'd expect. The Latakia IS as weak as you'd expect, but there's enough to hint at “English” flavor. The Perique is even harder to find. I don't consider this “Medium” strength either. It is extremely light and airy, bite-free, and has a soft worry-free ribbon cut. It's weak, but tastes nice. It's cheap, but not poor quality. It's mass market, but may just appeal to select individuals. If you try this as your first English and enjoy it, I recommend John Bull Royal English, another very light English with a much better Latakia flavor and aroma (sadly, not sold at smokingpipes.com)....Read More

A friend o mine (Donald T.) gave me a pouch of this. Don't let the brand name fool you. This is decent tobacco. I was pleasantly surprised. The ribbon cut was nice. The pouch note is excellent. Moisture is decent. The smoke is rather nice. It is similar to John Bull or American Patriot. It is light for an English Blend, but it is ideal for somebody wanted to break into English Blends, or for somebody that wants something a little stronger than the aromatic blends....Read More

I tried this after friend sent me a pouch to sample. I'm not an extravagant person so the brand was not a turn-off for me and I gave it a fair Shake, but after smoking the entire pouch I cannot find any redeeming quality that would bring me back to it. Yes, it is cheap but I would much rather smoke Balkan Supreme as a budget blend. To me, the taste was harsh and there's not really any other way to put it. It was hot and harsh from first light to the last Puff....Read More

Way better than I anticipated. I mean, if I'm in the mood for an English, I'm probably not reaching for this, but for the price, it is a great way for someone to see if they like English blends. I am secretly certain that they use liquid smoke as a topping rather than adding actual Latakia....Read More

I would recommend this blend if you are trying English tobacco for the first time. It is subtle in every note and will not disappoint a beginner. For seasoned English smokers it just does not stand to par in terms of taste and complexity.

This is good for the budget minded English lover. I agree with the other review, this is a good choice for long term storage. Will likely buy more for that purpose, I like some of the more expensive Englishes out there, but since I have a strict budget this will provide a good smoke for a good price. I didn't have an issue with the moisture as stated in another review, only reason this isn't a 5 star baccy for me is the mildness of this blend, still worth having in your cellar....Read More

This is possibly a good choice for those who like to put tobacco's in a jar for way later use or allow to dry in the open. It was too moist for me and took a long time to dry some. For the price , I wanted to try it though. I prefer Peterson's Wild Atlantic. It cost more but I understand why now....Read More
