I have not been too keen on most cherry blends - not because I don't like cherry, because I do ......To me, most seem artificial,medicinal, chemical , bad aftertaste etc. - I decided on trying a blend by Hearth & Home called "Manor Heights"- man, this stuff is FABulous! Mild, light and full of a lovely cherry taste that lingers on the palette - absolutely NO BAD aftertaste! A very satisfying smoke. I just placed an order with P&C for an 8oz tin! It's one worth a try!
