Egg nog is ok. To me it has a slightly off taste that I can't describe. I pretty much love HH blends but wouldn't order more of that blend.
+1 on caramel apple pie!

I got a tin of eggnog and I really like it.
You can really smell the rum and some spice. Some vanilla in there too. Haven't opened grandma's kitchen yet.

I looked at Apple Pie maybe next month. I relay want to try Vermont meat candy but cant afford the bundle deal.
I have had bad luck with Hearth and Home aromatic blends, which is kind of shocking because I REALLY love a lot of their more straight forward blends. Their Namaste is a fantastic English, and Victorian Stroll paired with a cup of coffee is heaven on Earth. I have a lot of their bulk blends stashed that I am looking forward to trying.
I have some Egg Nog coming in the mail soon. I wanted something to smoke in public this month, so I went with Egg Nog. I've tried about five different H&H blends, and only disliked one.
I finally tried some of this Black House that everyone is always raving about. I had tried Penzance in the past and due to the love on this forum, it was far overhyped for me and I found it to be a disappointment. I expected the same disappointment from Black House. I tried it the other day and was joyfully surprised. It really does live up to all the hype. Damn tasty English blend and good, good stuff. I have two Hearth and Home latakia blends I picked up recently and for the life of me cant remember what either of them was called. Ill look here in a minute.
I've smoked Egg Nog and still have some here. It's OK but I prefer aromatics from Boswell's or Pipeworks and Wilke. Don't get me wrong, I love H&H tobaccos, especially Larry's Blend, it's just that Egg Nog didn't trip all my triggers. Russ O. is a wonderful blender and I am waiting for a tin of his Black House now. Fusilier's Ration is then next on the list.

That reminds me, I need to pick up some Egg Nog at the store.
I've become kinda picky about aromatics. Some blenders seem to forget that it's the tobacco that makes the blend, not the topping.

I smoked the egg nog, the berry blend, and stogie from H&H - enjoyed all 3 - but I'm a tobacco slut! My wife liked the berry blend and I have to say I thought it would be well you know another aromatic but very smooth light went great with a glass of port - Merry Christmas!
