Good call. I have just received the Untouchables so fingers crossed 🤞
I think I ordered my first tin from Esterval's in May 2020. I've smoked about 15 tins since then and I have more unopened. You might say it hooked me from the first tin.

That being said, as with other blends, it is not for everyone. Several pipe smokers I have shared it with didn't like it. Some others didn't like it at first but decided it was good after smoking two or three bowls. There are at least three others who constantly ask me if I have any they can trade for (before it became available for purchase in the states)

I find myself reaching for it three or four times a week.

@LongIslandPiper Its really the best of both worlds.

Ed G is good but its got a lot of sweet and sour notes
DC has depth

Mixed and with some added perique you get the sweetness of ED G plus the depth of Directors Cut.

If you like tea its great with black tea, milk and sugar. Its desert.
Thanks for this recipe. Tried it tonight, and it is indeed the best of both worlds!
