San Cristobal El Principe Cigar - 1 Single by ArchivedCgarsReviews

One of the finer looking sticks available. They look good enough to eat (I dont recommend eating them). With age, they actually become a lot better than I ever expected. Be sure to let them sit and age so that you are made happy the way I was after a while. I am not saying that these will be making you a San Cristobal customer, but they will at least satisfy you. written by mmeadows

San Cristobal El Principe Cigar - Box of 25 by ArchivedCgarsReviews

Fantastic looking little number. Dark, sweet smelling, enticing. But thats where the pleasure stopped. Robust to say the least, kicked my ass and then went bitter on me half way down. Id buy them just for their looks though. written by asgard

Strawberry Tobacco Flavouring Spray - 15ml by Staff

Yaaassss! I was so gutted when I saw this hadn’t been included in the original line up of sprays as it was always one of my favourite Auld Kendal flavours, so I was seriously happy when I saw it was finally coming out. To me, it seems slightly different to how I remember, but I get the feeling that’s more down to ratio than the actual taste of the spray. But more importantly, this smells AMAZING! Seriously, if you get some of this, take the lid off the spray and have a whiff… remember those jelly strawberries you used to get from the ice cream van? Yeah, it smells exactly like them! The taste is pretty consistent with the smell, and a high concentration of spray gives a genuinely “juicy” strawberry taste, with a subtle undertone of childhood memories 😉. I know it’s the first one I tested, but I’m already in love with this one and I’m really not sure if the others will be able to top it! Calum - Turmeaus Chester

St Bruno Flake Pipe Tobacco 50g Pouch by Staff

St Bruno is a firm favourite of mine. Fairly earthy smoke with some citrus flavours. Pleasant after taste and leaves a nice aroma in the room. Highly recommended

Solani Festival Pipe Tobacco 50g Tin by Staff

On opening the sample, your senses are immediately inundated by the aromatic aroma of plums, which gives you a good guide of treats to come. The tobacco is in coarse cut form, and the mix of the different tobacco leaf of black Cavendish---burley & Virginia looks very attractive, and in my sample had just the right moisture content. I found that it helps if you choose the correct size pipe, for using a small bowl makes the blend smoking experience slightly sharp on first lighting, so use a larger bowl to allow the blend to burn better, giving a smoother smoking experience. Try also moving between a briar pipe and a meerschaum, as the meerschaum adds a little extra to the overall experience, as a briar burns hotter with this blend. A cooler smoke allows the tobacco blenders art to come to its true fruition. Using a meerschaum for my sampling, I found the following; Strength; Mild to Medium. Burning; Slow and cool. Taste; A very pleasant plum like taste, with overtones hints from the mix of black Cavendish and Burley, of spicy nuts.
