Drew Estate Pipe Blends

IV. Meat Pie
This is the only English offering in the DE line (and one of only two non-aros), and it delivers with a strong showing. The Latakia is prominent player in the tin note- very smoky indeed. The Virginia and oriental are present, offering note of dry hay and a touch of sweetness. As exuberant as the smokiness is, it doesn’t come across as full-flavored or spicy English. The blend is cut into thin ribbons and comes out the tin ready to smoke without any drying period. The flavor makes me think of leather that was tanned over a campfire. It is a medium strength blend with a faint pepper note. There is a nice sweetness that comes with a wisp of cumin. It reminds me somewhat of Dan’s Midnight Ride. Great quality tobacco, and impressive since this stands alone in its category.

I've heard lots of good things about Meat Pie, sounds wonderful. Any chance you'll do a review of the Harvest on Hudson?

I'm all out...but I remember enjoying it when I smoked it- if that's worth anything

I was just curious, but that works! It's what turned me off of pipes last spring. I smoked another bowl this spring and it wasn't as bad as I remembered, but I still wasn't sure I liked it, as I found it a bit perfumey.
