Purportedly modeled after a recipe made by or for Bing Crosby. The addition of Deertongue, which is not a tobacco, is an interesting prospect
First and foremost I taste the Burley. Must be the exact same Burley I recently reviewed. But as the bowl burns down and I become slightly more acquainted with the tobacco, I find that heavy nuttiness of the Burley is punctuated by a slighly sweet, summery type of flavor. The best I can describe it: the refreshing taste of a tall, green stalk of grass. This flavor grows and evolves a bit as I smoke more, becoming somewhat herbal in nature.
For the first time since picking up a pipe, I'm very strongly reminded of my cigars.
There is a surprising complexity in a blend with only two advertised ingredients
An odd thing for me: seems to have a strong nic-hit.
An intriguing blend! Need to get a Churchwarden to see how Bing would have smoked this.
