Cornell & Diehl - Sansepolcro 2oz
Different
Starts out sweet and lightly smokey with floral qualities. The Italian florets are unique and tasty with hints of spice and earth and almost an efflorescence at times. Develops down the bowl and builds in strength. The Virginia's and Cavendish really provide a needed foundation for the dark fired. Tasty but those florets are quite different from normal DF. Nice subtleties.


Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation - 1982 Centennial Blend 1.4oz
Nice mellow smoke
Creamy blackberry flavor when sipped slowly Mildly sweet and tangy with plenty of smoke. Burns to a fine white ash. Can turn harsh if pushed (burleys I suspect) otherwise a fine tobbaco. Should be known that I don't typically smoke aromatics.


McClelland - 221-B Series: Black Shag 50g
Excellent
Great easy burning virginia. Full flavored, sweet and spicy with darker earth/coffee notes throughout...especially while drinking coffee. Nice aroma to the smoker. Shag cut so pack accordingly. Reminiscent of bulk ODF but sweeter IMHO.


Tom Eltang - Mixture 2oz
Smooth Smoke
Very enjoyable smoke! Nutty burleys are at the body of this mixture...with the wonderful virginias making their presence known along with a touch of perique accenting the virginias. Cool burning to a nice ash....overall mild body and a little cigar like. Great smoke


McClelland - Personal Reserve: Blackwoods Flake 100g

Cornell & Diehl - Bayou Night 2oz
Great smoking experience
Wonderful complexity of sweet spice with notes nuttiness and smokey latakia. This unique mixture has a sweet body reminisant of raisins and molases with a nice finish of spice(cinamon like)...the ocasional notes of toasted nuts and hictory smoke fill in the gaps nicely while the nicotine definetly lets you know its there.


Lane Limited - RLP-6
Smooth smoking pleasure
Mild cool smoke with a core of earthy tobacco and vanilla with hints of chocolate and caramel.....nice aroma of vanilla and the ocasional burnt marshmallow. A little drying time and fire produce a fine white ash.
