in Pipes

The aroma in the pouch is earthy, nutty, and some vanilla

tobacco came in good smoking condition but I'd say it's a little on the dryer side which isn't a bad thing

The first half of my bowl it was very smooth with a wonderful sweet nutty vanilla flavor.
The second half of the bowl dropped most of the vanilla flavor and I was left with a mild nutty burley flavor overall very pleasant

Nice room note, I enjoy it and you could smoke this blend in public

I can see why this tobacco separates a lot of people. on one hand it's a sweet, mild tasting and pleasant aromatic, but on the other hand it's a two note song. But In my humble opinion it plays the two notes very well.

    My first year in the Army this is what I smoked. Only had room, or money, for one pipe, one tobacco. It was solid, dependable. Some of my barrack-mates, 6 man room, complained that the after note smelled like farts, but I was pretty sure it was one or more of them.

    Definitely them but it's a good story to tell and a great memory I'm sure.
