As someone who tends to prefer full-flavored blends, this one caught my attention. It has a rich, genuine tobacco taste! While it’s strong, it doesn’t overwhelm.As the cigar leaf aroma hits you the moment you open the tin. Since I also enjoy cigars, that’s a plus for me. This particular line of pipe tobacco is produced by C&D, and I appreciate that it comes packed in a mason jar, filled to the brim. I doubt they could have fit even one more shred of tobacco in there. This blend is a winner in my book. Thanks to Briar Works (C&D) for creating this excellent mix!
