How about a blind Pipe Tobacco PIF

[slcraiders]

Got a very nice package from Tyler yesterday- samples intact with a few extras!!!

Cool...This should be interesting once the reviews start hitting.

Point taken. I will get on the ball and post my reviews.

Ok, I'm not too good at the fancy talk but this is what I tasted.

#2,

Dark and sweet. Seemed to be a dark cavendish. When I smoked the first bowl I tasted hints of cherry. The second bowl I smoked there was less cherry and now seemed to have a hint of liquor. Maybe a whiskey or rum. Not sure. Smoked nice, no tongue bite and had a nice room note. This was one that you might get away with in doors.

#1

I've smoked two half bowls of this. I like it. Seems like a virginia with what is probably the perfect amount of latakia. Not too sweet and just a bit of tongue bite. I'm pretty confident the wife would not be please with me smoking this inside but it's tasty enough to brave the cold.

I might be trying another this afternoon or might finish up the #1, that stuff is tasty.

Al right...The reviews are coming in.

1...Dunhill 965 http://www.tobaccoreviews.com/blend_...LPHA=M&TID=458

2...Samuel Gawith Chocolate Flake http://www.tobaccoreviews.com/blend_...PHA=C&TID=2208

The Dunhill 965 is the best Latikia Blend I've smoked. it's also in the Tobacco reviews Hall of fame. This is from the last batch before the re-release of this year. Supposedly the mixture has changed with the new release.

The Samuel Gawith is a lip smacker too...The chocolate is pretty much in the background along with Latikia. The Virginia and Burley are the most obvious to me. really a nice mixture. This stuff is hard to find.

Hope it didn't change much, I liked it.

Just in case you have not taken a whiff of #3 it is an aromatic...Thought I'd tell you. You might want to smoke it in a cob or a lesser pipe.

I'll put it through my meerschaum
