Morning Mixture is not The "Real" Shire
October 02, 2020
Product: Vauen Auenland The Shire Morning Mixture 50g
I bought this in error, actually. I thought I was getting the "Real Shire". (product 003-448-0011)

I found this blend alright. I'm not a huge fan of chocolate, coffee, nutty, bready tones. This blend, however, actually manages to be alright. In a lot of respects, I find it comes off as a Blac
k Forest Cake, which ain't all that bad! The taste is basically dessert-like, and would go well with a standard cup of Earl Grey or a nice coffee. The room note isn't bad, but not enamouring - it's like burning a Black Forest Cake made with tobacco. Out of the tin, it wasn't too wet, and smoked well with a quick 2-minute dry.

Comparable products in mind, I think I prefer the Sweet Killarney by Peterson for the room note and flavour; it succeeds better "overall". The "Real" Shire also succeeds better in flavour and roomnote by leaving the chocolate and breadiness behind, and focusing on the fruit and more acidic notes.

Pretty good

Tin note delivers on the mirabelle. Taste is of dark and sweet cherries, nutty burley, and of course black cavendish. Can’t pick up any vanilla or coffee. Every so often some bright Virginia peeks through but not often. Needs a little dry time. Not goopy at all.
Excellent Morning Smoke

Very good morning blend and can be mixed with the Shire as well for a mellow, smooth smoke with your morning coffee. Definitely keep this in stock!
Good till the last puff

OK so I have look all over to see if this is just truly a non aromatic and a blended virgina...well I still don't have a straight answer, but I will say this is very good right until the very last puff. I get hints of chocolate and caramel right off the bat and the fruit taste and room note is very strong on this blend. Very little nic hit and a good smooth smoke and produces a fine white ash. It did come a little wet from the get go but a short while drying in the tin for a day was all it took to even that out. Will be keeping this in the rotation for a while now....Read More
