I Placed an Order at The Country Squire

[JR1296]

I usually smoke english blends but I'm wanting a good aromatic I can smoke in the house on the rainy days that's pleasing to others.
I wanted to support The Country Squire since they are in my home state. So I placed a small order to test the waters.
I ordered Blue Ribbon, Seersucker, Hunting Creek (english aromatic), and Shepherd's Pie (Full english).
Has anyone on here tried any of these?

Seersucker is quite good.

Didn't care for Blue Ribbon that much, to much of an strong aro for me. That's just a personal taste consideration, you may love it. Hunting Creek however, is one of my favorite blends from them. Let us know what you think when you try them.

Rivendell is my favorite aromatic and probably the only one I really like unless you consider Chatham Manor and aro.

It’s fantastic, mellow chocolate I’m digging it

Just bought me 4 oz of the Pie.

I like White Rose.

I have an ounce of Hunting Creek, but I haven't tried it yet. I have tried Figgy Pudding, Rivendell, Sweet Maple Twist, and Second Breakfast, and I love them all. Very impressed with their offerings.

For some reason I didn't put Rivendell in my cart. The reviews looks promising too. Will be getting some next time if I like these.

I doubled up on the hunting creek. It sounded to good.

I haven't tried any of those in particular, although Shepard's Pie is on my list to try out. I did recently order Figgy Pudding, Northwest Trek and Rivendell. So far, those 3 have been outstanding.

I can't comment on those tobaccos, but I can certainly recommend the business. I've placed a few orders with them which have been delivered very quickly without a problem.

I love both Shepard’s pie and Hunting creek. Hunting creek always gets lots of compliments from bystanders! Haven’t tried the others but Country Squire gets an A+ in my book!

Now I want to order some Hunting Creek with all the comments on it.

Now I want to order some Hunting Creek with all the comments on it.

Here's my review of Hunting Creek:
The brown sugary black cavendish is the lead component. The nutty, earthy, woody burley is a supporting player. The grassy, citrusy Virginia is a secondary player. The smoky, woody, earthy sweet Cyprian Latakia is a condiment that plays a slight bit above its station. The vanilla topping seems to be the most prominent, but I notice a little nougat, light chocolate, and something else I can’t put my taste buds on, but it seems have a fruit note. The toppings sublimate the tobaccos quite a lot, though they do allow them to mildly peek through. That’s especially true for the Latakia. The strength is in the center of mild to medium, while the taste barely reaches the medium mark. The nic-hit is a slot below the strength threshold. Won’t bite or get harsh, and has no dull moments or rough edges. Burns cool and clean at a reasonable pace with a very consistent sweet, lightly creamy, mildly rich flavor with a hint of savoriness that translates to the lightly lingering after taste. Leaves little moisture in the bowl, and requires an average number of relights. The room note may make you a few friends. An all day smoke. Three and a half stars.

I'm out of town now, so it all should be waiting on me in the mailbox when I get home this weekend.

So far I have tried the Blue Ribbon and Seersucker. Me not being a aromatic fan I have to say I like these for what they are. I haven't developed my palate enough to give a good review on the favors I get from them. I just know if I like something or not. I can say I like them enough to come back to them. Both burned very well with minimum re-lights without letting them dry out any. No bite. Great room note. Blue Ribbon reminded me of Newminster's blackberry brandy on a diet. Both would be great for someone starting out smoking a pipe for the first time. Me being mostly a English and barley guy I was desiring something stronger or more bold.

Shepard's Pie is very tasty to me.

Another suggestion: you might wanna tr "mixed bowls", I'm typing this while puffing on half DH Baby's Bottom mixed with half G&H Kentucky Nougat.

For a Latakia blend, I enjoy their Angry Cornishman blend.
