More a sup than a smoke as it burns quite hot. Faintly tastes like Bakewell tart but more of a crowd pleaser. Tobacco is pretty decent.

Well well well, isnt this special. I really like this! The flavour is amazing. The rum is very smooth and mild, not overpowering. Lurking somewhere in the background but just enough to alter the flake. Im not a massive aromatic lover but love them when done like this, to complement the tobacco not alter it will be getting more next time.

This is my first rope tobacco as I’m a relative new comer to the world of pipe smoking having moved over from cigars. I am a bit of a puffer with a pipe which can cause problems with aromatics and certain types which get quite hot. This however I found a cool and satisfying smoke. I order a sample first as I wasn’t sure if it would be my cup of tea. On opening the pouch I was greeted with a a dark rope which almost resembled a large cigar in its thickness but squashed and more compressed. It has a smokey smell and also a slight vinegar smell (not unpleasant). I cut off a few slices which fell apart on the cutting board. I decided to break them apart by hand and then chopped the pipe into smaller pieces and began to pack my pipe. Once filled I realised I had packed it too tight for a sufficient draw and repacked again ensuring I had an easy draw through the pipe. I repacked about 3/4 of my original packing when reloading the pipe and lit it up. It took a bit longer than loose tobacco to light but when going it only required a few re-lights through the whole bowl. It is a smokey flavou

A very high quality rich brown flake, pouch note is of milk chocolate, rubs out very well, not too moist, perfect, this isnt at all a overly sweet smoke, almost savoury! A definate chocolate taste is there though, the room note is gorgeous, a real treat and a perfect moisture free delight. Lovely stuff 10/10!

An outstanding tobacco, high quality cut plug of medium/strong strength, easy to rub out, pouch note is very floral and spicy, lights easily and burns well, it has a floral taste, geranium, rose? Highly perfumed, which i really enjoy, the room note is extremely pleasant, definately in my top 5 all time favourites, take your time and enjoy, a very relaxing, slow burning plug, beautiful!

As we know these cigars are machine made. One of the issues I've found over many years of buying them, is occasionally you'll find a bad cigar in a batch. I've noticed this particularly with boxes of 50, but even some packets of five. Some are potholed with tiny holes by the machine, making them useless unless you can cut them down, but some have holes throughout the length of the cigar, meaning it has to be binned. Other than that, it's a very mild smoke and I'll continue to buy them here and overseas.
