I have been wanting to write about this blen for months . I was gifted this a couple of months ago from a Doc. I work with in the ER . I opened the ziplock that he had obviously aquired through pipesandcigars . I noticed the sweetness of honey and vanilla . It almost brought me back to Granma's kitchen , where many sweet potatoe pies , and vanilla sweet bread was baked . I filled the bowl of my Savinelli gator , and almost imediatly fell in bliss . The tobacco seems to have some black canendish , and some golden tobacco's , which im sure , isnt virginia . May have a little burley , maybee im wrong . Could be a lighter cavendish blend mixed with the black . There was no bite , mildly sweet , and held a good light considering I didnt give it a chance to dry a bit first . I was also impressed by the way the taste held up throuoght my entire bowl . I would definatly give this a full recommendation to those who love Aro's , virginia's , and Burley blends . I think it would even be more than tollerable to the English lovers as well . :puffpipe:

I hear a lot about this blend and never have had the chance to try any of it yet. I have been led to believe that it is a maple flavored blend, and I LOVES me some maple flavored tobacco, so this is definitely in my book to try.
I like this blend, and actually smoked it this morning btw.
This tobacco by far smells the sweetest of any I know right out of the bag. To me it literally smells like cake icing.

Trout Stream has a definite butterscoth-y smell to it. I've never discerned any maple in it, though, but that could all be personal taste.
But this is one of the short-list aros I enjoy. Quite a lot.

i purchased the Victory sampler from P&C recently which includes this. It's really wonderful as an all day but i have been enjoying it with coffee in the morning and some tea at night.
While it is an aromatic it is an aromatic with a light touch. No topping smashing you over the head. I feel this is best about midway through a bowl. All of the scents and flavors are gently sweet and very enjoyable.
I am known as a guy that has a constant angry scowl on his face and i swear i felt myself with a beaming smile after smoking this for the first time.
Definitely going to have a place in my everyday pouch once this sample runs out and i get more.

I can't get it because pipes and cigars doesn't ship to WA. I can PayPal someone in a couple days to pick up 2oz and ship to me?
I am enjoying a bowl as I type this. How can you go wrong with a blend having a name like this. I would expect the same for a mixture named Raquel Welch! :lol:
I just received a 4 oz bag. I am anxiously awaiting the water levels to go down to find a stream and cast a fly line and have a puff.
