Whatever the something extra is it would obviously be a closely guarded secret. I heard someone describe it as a cardamon type flavor, which I think it's along those lines (cardamon is in chai tea). I really have no idea what it is, I just know it's really good. I had a bowl of it and ordered a pound kind of good. It's got the really creamy smoke like penzanze does in my opinion but there's more flavor. It's perfectly balanced and hard to separate the flavors. It's definitely a few different things together. There could be some nutmeg too. I really can just say it's really tasty stuff.
PP is one of my favorites. I have NO idea what the secret ingredients are, but I will say I had the best smoke of my life with this one.... Everything just clicked. Only happened once, couldn't duplicate it, but it was one of those "eyes roll back in the head" smokes----was a few years ago, smoked it in a cob. Good stuff!
Seadog- better get yourself more than an ounce!!

It looks and sounds damn delicious...1 ounce first and then go from there...sometimes even blends that are subtle in flavoring don't work for me...have my fingers crossed on this one though.
The original blender for the Seattle Pipe Club tobaccos is a man named Joe Lankford. He is just a terrific human being.
He literally dreamed his recipe for Mississippi River.
You know how sometimes when you meet someone they just have that charisma for other people? I don't know if this is the right way to say it, but when you talk to Joe (who is like the NICEST guy EVER, btw) he just OOZES tobacco charisma.
He was describing the 3 new blends he developed for release this year and I just KNEW they were all going to be AWESOME. And they were.

Looking forward to the new blends. Plum Pudding is a great blend, and while I originally found Mississippi River lacking when I first tried it, I've been coming around in liking it more. That said, I still prefer Plum Pudding. I've yet to try Seattle Evening, but it seems that that blend is the "step-child" of the three from SPC.
Um..What? This thread is talking about the Seattle Pipe Club blend, Plum Pudding.
Not Germain's - Plum Cake.
