McClelland - Deep Hollow Review

A soothing, relaxing mild aromatic, Deep Hollow consists of rich, Red and Black stoved Virginias lightly top-flavored with hints of apple and vanilla. Relative to most aromatics it smokes cool and clean with little moisture or bite.

Notes: The name Deep Hollow comes from the works of JRR Tolkien. Deephallow (Deep Hollow): A village on the Shire's eastern border, built on the banks of the River Brandywine. Immediately across the river was Haysend, the southernmost point of Buckland, while just to the south of Deephallow, the River Shirebourn flowed into the Brandywine.
I opened the tin and the tin note was sweet, and the tobacco was moist. I picked out a little and let it dry out a little, then packed it into my pipe and lit it, the tobacco lit well and stayed lit ( only went out once close to the the bottom of the bowl. While I was smoking this blend I was not happy with the lack of flavor, but the room note was amazing. I might not smoke this tobacco very often, but will smoke it around people, because the room note was a real people pleaser.

I will be trying to mix it to get the aroma of the deep hollow and the taste of the other tobacco I mix it with. I will let you know what I figure out.

cmdrmcbragg evreyone is different, and will like different tobaccos. If you like that tobacco cool, but I didn't say it had no flavor. I said "I was not happy with the lack of flavor."
