Three Nuns - Three Nuns 1.75oz
Definitely Growing on Me
While most of the blends I've smoked are aromatics and Cavendish blends, I've been venturing into Va's now. I was personally drawn to this tobacco due to it's long history, and by respect of C.S Lewis. I have only smoked a few bowls of this so far- 1st bowl was a tad harsh by my fault of packing a bit too tight and smoking it too quickly. the next couple bowls I smoked I eased up and really let the flavor come to me. And I have to say it was truly relaxing and therapeutic even. This mixture is ridiculously smooth and has a subtly sweet taste to it. I look forward to getting to know this blend better.


Sir Walter Raleigh - Aromatic 1.5oz
Favorite pouch blend
This tobacco is very economically priced, but does not smoke or smell cheap in any way. love carrying this pouch with me when I'm out or at work. The liqueurs give this blend a very pleasant aroma and taste. Definitely worth trying.


Mac Baren - 7 Seas Black 3.5oz
Oh, to sail the 7 seas
This blend has surpassed my love for Solani X: Sweet Mystery. the tin note is sweet and deep, but not overwhelming. While I'm extremely partial to Black Cavendish (when in the mood for something sweet and/or aromatic) this dark, cured Va blend has stolen my heart (or at least my nose and taste buds) and it has been truly pleasurable to smoke, whether in my favorite briar, my pear wood pipe, my churchwarden, or just a corncob. Incomparably smooth to smoke, great, great room note. I will undoubtedly be ordering this again soon as my current tin is nearly empty.


Solani - X - Sweet Mystery 50g
Mysterious indeed!
While still a rather young and somewhat inexperienced smoker, I have dabbled with quite a large number of blends (mostly aromatics so far) and this is right at the top for me (a tie with Mac Baren's 7 Seas: Black). I have experimented with different packing techniques, smoked this from slightly damp to dry, and smoked this blend in a few different pieces and have loved each experience with it. nearly every smoke I have received great compliments on the beautiful and complex aroma of this blend. Tasty hints of the Bacardi/current, the undeniable smooth sweetness of black cavendish, and everything else about this blend resulted in my finishing the whole tin in far less time than my other tobaccos. Solani X: Sweet Mystery kept me yearning for just one more bowl each day.

Favorite Aromatic Thus Far!
Huge fan of aromatics. This blend is sweet, but not Sickening. The smell is wonderful; smokes incredibly smooth. Will definitely be buying this again.
