Thanks. Great review... It’s amazing that your palate/senses can pick up tastes like bread in tobacco. I can barely taste cherry in cherry blends... Ha. Same goes for those wine and spirit connoisseurs. I’m pretty good w/beer though ?

Some people see a conspiracy around every corner. Sounds like Babydriver may be one of those.
What the hell is a baby driver, anyways. Is that like a movie about a driving baby or something? Stupid name!
My entire cellar is influenced by your honest and objective reviews. Thanks so much for taking all the time.
or maybe his tongue has been removed for some reason and he also skipped that class in biology that explains the basic functions of that organ. If that happened to me I'd not only hate you but also think every pipe tobacco sucked. "Taste like nothing just like all this food people make these days.". He's probably just a troll that's made you know how it feels to be kissed by a woman any woman ever, but there are so many trolls like that out there it's just more fun to assume he's actually a very tragic and confused fellow. Go ahead try it way more fun right??
I know a few people like that. That have an small and sour view of all the many things in life they just don't understand. Everyone who has a better life then theirs (almost everyone even starving children who at least have dreams of some day finding a fresh cheesesteak or slice of cake) and anyone that has a better life must be doing something immoral or shady but unlike themselves the other peoples shadiness and immorality seems to work out for them and that just won't stand. I could be wrong but once someone breaks the seal on actually having to have evidence before making public accusations I personally say game on. So while I can't proof any of this I'll safely and comfortably assume babydriver is not only the person I described but also possibly got his name because of that time a baby as in a literal baby pulled a pile"driver" wrestling move on him which has made thinking really hard to do since then.
Looking forward to trying this one, I am a Sutliff fan. Thanks for the review!
there is a movie but if you look at my earlier post you'll know it's probably a reference to that time he tried to wrestle a baby thinking it would make him look manly and got all kinds of messed up by the infant.
personally I'am half a Sutliff fan. To me that make some of the greats and some of the worst.
Seems to me everyone does. Or at least some of what a particular producer makes appeals to a person and the rest of their line up not so much.
Agree. Molto Dolce? One of the worst.
515RC1? Heaven on earth.
I've wanted to temper my enthusiasm publicly, but I'm REALLY looking forward to this.
Have you had WCC Simply Red? I'm wondering how that compares to 515. I was surprised by how much I liked their Crumble Kake red virginia.
Simply Red is much better quality than either Sutliff Red Va, IMO
It’s funny you mention that, because Simply Red tastes like a bland Sutliff Virginia to me. Jim’s reviews are great, and this Cringle Flake sounds nice, but I haven’t had a Sutliff Virginia yet that gives me any desire to buy more. I’m not sure if I’ll pick up a tin of this or not yet.
The stoved red in Cringle Flake is ten years old. That's not common. Also, the seventeen year old perique is amazingly fruity. That's not common either.
Simply red is good I prefer the sutliff product though. The simply red seemed a bit less sweet and less vinegar-y to me.
I agree, but hell with that many blends they can't all be great. Particularly some of their heavy-heavy aromatics, just not for me. But someone likes those too, they still make them.
