Like many, I've been on quest to find a decent cherry blend. Well, this is it. This is a natural cherry flavor. I like candied cherry flavors but every tobacco I try like that turns my mouth into scorched earth. This one doesn't. It's smooth and easy to smoke and adds enough flavor to make it enjoyable without any hint of harshness. You can still taste the quality GH tobaccos underneath.
OK, I don't know if they are quality tobaccos or not and I hate it when reviewers say something like that! Let's be honest, we just know whether or not we like it. I worked tobacco shops for 20 years and I can't tell you which brands have "high grade" tobacco in them. After all, how many of us have made a living raising, grading or sorting tobacco? Almost none of us but we all like to pretend we are knowledgeable and sophisticated. So again, the reality is we just know we like it and we didn't find any bugs in it when we put it in our pipes. For all I know, it's dried cabbage that GH&Co has some how figured out how to make delicious. GH gets a lot of their tobacco's from places like Malawi and Indian. Is that quality? I have no idea. When you picture tobacco farmers in those places do you picture Mercedes Benz Combines driven by chauffeurs spritzing the fields with evian natural spring water while the farmers sip champagne in the back of the cab? I don't. I picture people living at or just above poverty level harvesting this delicious weed by hand hoping to make it through the day without getting eaten by a tiger or a lion so you and I can enjoy it from the comfort of our first world porches. But I digress.
Try some of this if you want a decent cherry blend and be thankful part of your job doesn't place you in line to be eaten by a tiger or lion.
