HU - Khoisaan 100g
Refined, Balanced… exquisite.
My thoughtful wife surprised me with a to tin of this in my stocking. When opening the tin, the tobacco smells outstanding and does not disappoint when you light it up. It is a solid medium of the road in strength and very rich in texture concerning the smoke and mouth feel. The Latakia is not by any means overpowering. Refined and balanced is how I would mark this blend. I think any regular pipe smoker is gonna be hard pressed to not like this but it will particularly draw to those who enjoy Virginia and thoughtfully crafted English blends in the vain of GL Pease English blends…. I don’t think I’m gonna cellar deep like crazy but I will most definitely buy another tin when I’m finished with it
Filters & Adaptors - White Elephant 9mm Filters - Charcoal (10 Pack)
They work well
I use these in my Tsuge 9mm pipe. They work great. If you are not familiar with a filtered pipe smoke, here is what you can expect: the filters WILL give you a cleaner smoke feel in your mouth as it cuts down the tar ect- after I smoke with a filtered pipe, my mouth does not taste like an ashtray. The filters WILL drastically reduce tongue bite. The filters WILL (slightly) mute the flavors of your tobacco because it’s FILTERING…BUT, that’s not a bad thing with certain tobaccos. I use both filtered and non filtered and some tobaccos I enjoy MORE with a filter, as it tames some of the inconsistency of the burn IMO. Filters don’t get much love in USA, try them, you may be surprised. I was.
Samuel Gawith - 1792 Flake 50g
Very very strong. Requires concentration
This is a unique tobacco that’s very strong. It’s not strong in a way that a punch of Perique would hit you it’s a little more understated. Smoking requires concentration and study of the tobacco. If you’re looking for a tobacco that’s easy smoking while you can do something else this is not it. This is one that you fill up the bowl to just concentrate on the smoke. As stated from others, make sure you don’t have an empty stomach. 4.0 Star because I can tell it’s a great quality tobacco it’s just not my thing.
Rattray's - Old Gowrie 100g
Very balanced and easy smoking.
very easy to smoke. The Virginia and Perique make it a tasty smoke for those who appreciate Virginia’s, and the Burley gives the smoke a nice rounded balance. The mouth feel is very soft and chewy. A winner for sure.
Cornell & Diehl - Palmetto Balkan 8oz
Easy smoking and delicious
I did not know that this blend was designated as “English” before I had first tried it, that said it came off less like a traditional English to me and something more unique in itself. After studying the ingredients, the English-ness is definitely there but the blend stands alone IMO. An easy all day smoke (if you have the time-I don’t but wish I did!) Highly recommend and well worth the price.
