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.
