Cornell & Diehl - Haunted Bookshop Cake 2oz
Good but strong
Not alot of flavor but also isn't a aromatic. Watch the nic hit. Smoke slowly or you'll wind up on Pluto (which is a planet by the way).

Peterson - Nightcap 50g
Amazing after aging
I purchased this 2 years ago. When I first got it I thought it was boring without much taste and over-hyped, I pulled it out again after a year and it was completely different. Slightly sweet and smokey. I pulled it out last night after a second year. It's even better.

Seattle Pipe Club - Plum Pudding 2oz
I changed my mind after aging
When I received a can a year ago I thought it was highly over-hyped. After aging for a year it's completely different. It's slightly sweet, strong, and has a very pleasant aroma. Get some but don't expect to be blown away at first.

Sutliff - Cringle Flake 2023 1.5oz
Boring out of the can but maybe better after ageing
There isn't anything special about this blend. Very little taste, moderate aroma, forgetful. However, I had a similar review for last year's Cringle Flake. I aged it for a year and am blown away by it. So buy it with the intention of ageing.

Sutliff - Maple Shadows II 8oz
Very disappointing. Lifeless
Maple Shadows is a perfect name for this mix. I'm a sucker for "limited release" cans. There is just a shadow of flavor and aroma when smoking it. It feels like a bait-and-switch. It smells great in the can but is tasteless with little aroma while smoking. I'll see if it improves with age. If not, I can fertilize my garden. I just wish they had come out with a smaller can.

Cornell & Diehl - Corn Cob Pipe and A Button Nose Ready Rubbed 2oz
Save Your Money for Chrismas
Santa has it on his naughty list. I was very disappointed with this mixture and am amazed at the high ratings. It smells great in the can, but is like an average non-aromatic tobacco. It claims to be aromatic, but I haven't detected anything special after smoking 2 bowls. It's not bad, just mediocre.

Gawith Hoggarth & Co. - Whisky Twist
Will put hair on your chest
Strong nic hit though it seems to mellow after drying out. Not as much flavor as I'd like but the aroma is fantastic.

Gawith Hoggarth & Co. - Brown Irish X
Sweet, Smokey, and Burns Well
If you cut into coins, rub, and let it dry for several hours it will be amazing. Some others get frustrated because they don't let the tobacco dry. It has an aroma like a barbecue and never needs relighting as long as you dry it out. By the way, you should dry it out if you didn't the message. Read Less

Hearth & Home - Smoky Mountain 1.75oz
Rich & Pleasant
This is a pleasure to smoke. Sometimes you smell the tobacco and it is better than when it is smoked. This tobacco delivers that smell to taste. It is rich & aromatic. The scent is similar to barbecue and brown sugar. I'm going to put this in storage and can't wait to try it a year from now. This is excellent right now but I am anticipating it will be amazing after some ageing. I strongly recommend buying some. The only downside is it is rather smoky. The smoke is pleasant, but tends to be a bit much at times.

Missouri Meerschaum - Creeper of the Corn 1.5oz
Disappointed
It's okay. Taste isn't anything notable. The same with the aroma. Certainly doesn't live up to its hype. It seems to be one that will improve significantly after ageing

Warped - Scarecrow 2oz
Good, but disappointed
The tobacco isn't bad. The smoke smells like cigars which makes sense since it's mixed with cigar tobacco. I wish it had a more aromatic quality. I'll age it and see what it's like next year.

Mac Baren - 7 Seas Regular 3.5oz
If you were on a desert island & could have only one brand of tobacco...
This would be it. It is an aromatic, but there isn't any bite, burns well without needing to be relit, and the flavor and aroma are amazing. I'm not a connoisseur, so all I really care about is whether it tastes good and the aroma is pleasant. It's very similar to Captain Black Dark.

Cornell & Diehl - Epiphany
Smells good, but a little too mild
I smoked this after Crooner. Both of them are very similar. Crooner was stronger. That may have tainted my review of Epiphany. Not a bad purchase at all, just a little too weak.

Cornell & Diehl - Crooner
Great tribute to the crooner Crosby
I was impressed with aroma and even burn of this tobacco. I didn't have to relight it at all. I wish it had more taste, but overall a great mix.

Warped - Until the End 2oz
Great aroma, but little taste
I'm also a cigar smoker so I was excited to try this. The aroma of the tobacco is amazing. I just wish it had taste to go along with it.

Cornell & Diehl - Sun Bear Mountain Flower 2oz
Absolutely Amazing
I thought about writing a bad review so I could have more of this available for me to buy, but that wouldn't be good. Darn those morals! This is the best tobacco I've ever smoked. It lights well and stays lit. The honey and flower scent is subtle, so don't worry about it being too sweet. Very pleasant to smoke and my wife loves the aroma as well. I don't recommend you buy it. I need more for myself.

Lane Limited - 1-Q
Boring & not much aroma
I was expecting more aroma and a pleasant taste. Luckily I only bought 1 oz. Really not much too it. I threw it away because I didn't want to waste my time.

BriarWorks - Cherry Cobbler 2oz
Much Better After Aging
I have updated my review after aging for a year. When I first received it is was tasteless. After a year it's one of my favorites and plan to order more.

Sutliff - Z91 Spicy Vanilla
Very wet, but also very good
This is one of my favorite mixtures to smoke. I must warn you that the tobacco is too moist when it arrives, so you have to let it dry for several hours. If you dry it on a paper towel, you'll see what I mean. If you don't, you'll constantly be using your pipe cleaner to remove the moisture. Once it's dry, it's fantastic.
