BLACK FRIDAY - Bundle Deal - Peterson Nightcap Pipe Tobacco - 5 x 50g tin (Formerly Dunhill Range)
by David
I am a relatively new pipe smoker who has strong memories of my Grandfather smoking the (then) wonderful Condor Sliced.
I decided to take up the pipe once I was past 55 and so have just run through all the old ?standards? - Condor, St Bruno, Three Nuns etc. All were disappointing. Not how I remembered pipe tobacco to be, I almost gave up.
Then this ! Nightcap is such a wonderful smooth elegant and intoxicating flavour. Not strong or ?challenging? but just beautifully balanced and sensual. I have yet to try the G&H ?Lakelands? but Peterson?s Nightcap has reassured me that pipe tobacco can still be that heady delight and sensory tease that it always was.
Like finding a fab malt amongst the boring supermarket ranges of ?guaranteed not to offend (or celight)? blended whiskies.
A little reminiscent of a Maduro cigar.
The tin is vacuum sealed?so get a few for ageing.

Brick House Maduro Robusto Cigar - 1 Single
by Jonathan
My first time sampling a Brick House and will be trying more from their range. This was a lovely smoke which was full of flavour and a nice burn. Personally, I'd found this to be on the fuller side in terms of strength but it was a great cigar and hopefully the others that I purchase over the coming months will live up to this one.

Bolivar Belicosos Finos Cigar - 1 Single
by Mathew
Revisited this fine Cuban recently only to discover it a bit fresh, still a wonderful stick, but needs time in a humidor to rest and develop into the great cigar it is. Woody, pine forrest and oaky prune finish, baked croissant, raisin and cinnamon spice. Not 5 stars as Habanos are selling them fresh,if your box is a few years old. Then I would give it 6 stars lol.

Paired with Courvoisier VS Cognac.
My first Joya, good open draw, excellent construction. On lighting, lots of smoke with lovely oaky, espresso, dark and nutty, barnyard and chocolate aromas and flavour....
Very nice black and red sweet pepper, with a hint of chili's on the retrohale, with chocolate chip cookies taste coating the palette. A very oily chewy smoke. Develops into a milk chocolate smooth cappuccino and finishes nutty and deep mahogany. Wow!

These are great, strategically place them throughout my humidor to make sure every nook and cranny is a perfect 69% humidity, they also remove humidity so are great at stopping mould in all those hard to reach places

The truth of the the matter is this, I am not an expert on picking out the flavours of any spirits, but what I can tell you is this... Its really really nice and smooth, its as simple as that
