What I really like about 965 is how it develops through the bowl. The first few puffs are fairly gentle, but it gradually builds into a richer, fuller smoke without becoming harsh. Smoked slowly, it stays cool and gives a really satisfying, long-lasting bowl definitely another that should be in every pipe smokers collection

Old Dublin is one of those tobaccos that really grows on you. From the tin, you get a lovely rich tobacco aroma with a subtle sweetness, and once lit it develops into a smooth, satisfying smoke.
The flavour is nicely balanced — earthy and slightly sweet with a gentle richness that gives it plenty of character without being overly heavy. It has enough depth to keep things interesting, but it remains an easy tobacco to sit back and enjoy.

Enjoyable little smoke if you’re short on time. Ideal with a Coffee. I look forward to purchasing a larger pack of these soon. Great flavour and also easy to travel with due to the smaller Cigarillo size format.

Standard mixture of such an apt name as this could not be anymore of a middle of the road blend. For starters there were no flavours of rich chocolate and coffee which was the only real attraction for me, so my disappointment started there. Sadly the bland mix provided nothing to re-interest me. The leaves used are well blended and no single one stands above the other, so you get a subtle mix that provides ... not much. I will say this is an easy smoke, easy to keep lit, didn't provide any tongue bite, and was definitely a medium in everything from room note to strength. I can't say it's bad, but equally it's not great. So 3 stars, bang in the middle it is.

4th blend I have ever tried as a new pipe smoker, and my first non-Aromatic. Very nice! Far more similar to a cigar in the lack of the Aromatic room note, and more in the way of a natural tobacco. Definitely sweet and creamy, woody, and pleasant overall. Very mild too, so I could probably enjoy this without even having to have a meal beforehand. Definitely worthy of getting a tin and to keep as a staple. Only downside I can think of is that the room note is less pleasant for non-smokers.

Good cigar, lots of flavour first third is creamy with a buttery almond taste, this develops into a more spicy leather flavour in the 2nd third and finishes of with a peppery earthy final third. Construction was good but did have a slight uneven burn on one of the two we had, apart from that this is a excellent budget option.
