Summer of 2016 Blind Review Thread

Mystery Tobacco 8

Pipes: A Stanwell and a couple cobs

Tin Notes: Berrys and a hint of liquor.

This tobacco is dark brown to black all the way across the board. Definitely a Cavendish mix. Needed some drying time before it would take to a flame. Was a little more picky than my other samples and needs some fa-nangling to keep lit. Burnt down to a sticky ash with minor amounts of goop.

Flavor was a mix of berries and a little bit of liquor back notes. Not much else. If pushed hard it would bite and taste of hot steam. I really didn't pick up many tobacco notes on this one. When sipped, it was a pleasant little smoke though. Nice berry hits, and I love berries of any kind, so that's alright by me. Could make a nice change of pace smoke, if aros are something you like to dabble in.

Thanks again Mr. Lutz for this awesome blind review. Lots of fun, makes me remember I need to be less of a stranger 'round these parts

You finished up with a bowl of SPS Country Estate

An estate typifies elegance, vastness and wealth. Similarly, Sutliff's Country Estate, a fine blend of four Black fire-cured tobaccos and Sweet Virginia portrays quality, depth, and rich flavor.
