Put in my first order with Boswells - they had astleys in stock and I added some northwoods, sweet and mild and sweet tea. Tried the sweet and mild last night and just really, really enjoyed it. Seems like a basic cavendish with some burley thrown in, and flavor wasn’t overpowering, but It was really smooth, great smoke output, burnt well to the end. and nice subtle cherry flavor. And fantastic aroma. Just really enjoyed it - the best aro I have smoked so far. Struck me as sort of a classic pipe tobacco profile, if that makes any sense.
Thinking about stopping the incessant sampling and just stocking up on this and making it a mainstay of my rotation.
