Cornell & Diehl - Star of the East Flake 2oz
Not for Sissies
This is definitely a man's smoke. I did enjoy it, but the old campfire and worn shoe leather can be a bit overpowering. If you are a fan of those flavors, you'll love it.


Cornell & Diehl - King Cake 2oz
Give it a chance, and time
Originally, I didn't care for it. But the more I dried it out, it really grew on me. There is a definite note of sweet raisin, but it's not overpowering. It's barely an aromatic, I mean, its an aromatic for non-aromatic smokers. The flavors are rich and deep. Drying this out properly is an absolute must.


Filters & Adaptors - Savinelli 6mm Balsa Filters (20 Count)
Really Work Well
Considering they really do not alter the taste of the tobacco, and considering how brown and moist they get after a smoke, I much prefer to have one in my pipe than not - especially for this price. Some 6mm pipe stems you might have to squash the filter a little to fit, but its no big deal.


Warped - Kings Stride 2oz
Don't judge by the smell
I don't know if its just me but the tin note smells slightly like vomit, HOWEVER, it is very delicious and complex. Every few puffs you will get this sweet aromatic flavor I assume from the BC and it melds wonderfully. I would like to see this particular Cavendish used more often, its really that good.


CAO - Eileen's Dream 50g
Very Nice Smell, Ok taste
Very nice out of the tin smell and smokes very well. I just don't see it living up to the hype the other reviewers make it to be.


Peter Stokkebye - PS400 Luxury Navy Flake
Almost Perfect
This is the type of tobacco you can smoke all day long, you will never get tired of it. *UPDATE, after smoking this for longer, I have come to the conclusion that tobacco really doesn't get any better than this. Simple ingredients, no need for gimmicks or special flavoring, just perfectly blended tobacco.


Sutliff - Molto Dolce 1.5oz
Sweet Dessert!
No kidding this stuff is SWEET! I think its wonderful for a dessert smoke instead of having cake or pie. It smells like candy. Deducted one star for it being so sticky and moist, but I guess that is the price for all that sweetness. I disagree that it needs a long drying time. I left mine out for 20 minutes and it smoked fine.


Borkum Riff - Bourbon Whiskey 1.5oz
Strange but not horrible
Not half as bad as the tobacco snobs make it out to be, but I find this brand to have a strange after taste that comes with cheaper tobacco I guess
