Tastes like bannock bread, nutty smooth and sweetness like fruit cake. Some moisture when smoking, just so moreish. My favourite smoke by far.

Brazil nuts! Especially the first third. Lovely rustic / aged impression. Mellows from half way, and turns into walnuts / hazelnuts. Strength is above average. Rubs out particularly well.

This really is an excellent smoke: slow-burning with no re-lights it gives a long smoke suitable for thoughtful reflection after dinner. I was introduced to it via my tobacco subscription, without which I do not think I would have discovered it. Marvellous nutty overtones with a walnut astringency on the tongue. I will be getting some more of this.

When I first started pipe smoking Ithought I would try the basic tobaccos used in most mixtures to find what they were like individually and in combination... in fact it was such good fun I might do it again... maybe. My impression of Burley at that time was that it was good as a filler but a little non-descript on its own. So it took some time for me to try a pure Burley tobacco. This blend of three different Burleys is very good - much better than I expected. Malty, nutty and smooth with no detectable topping, its rich natural flavour is ideal for any time of day. Although my preference is for stronger more complex blends I can see this becoming a regular in future orders.

This is a quality burley blend, nutty, malty, slow burning, I found rubbing out the flakes before filling the pipe the easiest way to smoke this..lovely stuff..will get this tobacco again.

Appearance; A close cut flake, very easy to break down in the hand resulting in a nice flake, easy to place in the pipe. Aroma; [before smoking] = pleasantly nutty. Smoking is as follows; A very deep and extremely pleasant taste from the mature Burley tobacco, with a hint of nuts, sweet after tastes and a hint of faint background spice. Cool and slow burning, if correctly packed into a briar pipe. [Note; if packed too tight, it will not burn smoothly, resulting in clinkers, however, if packed correctly, will burn to a white ash] Strength; Medium to strong [dependent on the experience of the smoker] Overall impression; An excellent Pipe Tobacco showing the best of the tobacco blenders art. Recommended for experienced Pipe Smokers only. Alfie - Turmeaus Liverpool
