It’s hard to say. If you don’t like it, you’re only out 20 bucks and then you would know.
If you DO like it, then you know that you have very refined and expensive taste for a top shelf tobacco!
Let us know what you decide!

it's always worth buying a blend you're curious about. At worst you can trade if for something of roughly equal value. Or maybe have a blend you can enjoy but know isn't worth buying. The one thing you do have to watch for and the one down side. Is if you really like it you'll have to buy more. In my opinion more tobacco forward slightly more expensive blends (compared to captain black) are worth it. Not because they're explicitly better but they do offer a different experience for me which is deeper. Depends though on what you're looking for in a smoke.
I am not good at trading,, I guess I will have to smoke it weather I like it or not when it is available for me to buy it...really want to try it by it's reviews
Hey man, just grab a tin of it, chances are that you will like it, and if it’s not right up your alley you won’t have a problem in finishing the tin and then you will know what it’s all about!
Plum Pudding is a bit of a harsh kitchen sink blend. If you want to dip a toe into English blends, get a couple of wallet friendly ounces of LJ Peretti "Royal" and "Tashkent".
Omega is another good one fro LJP as far as English goes.
SPC is a label I've been curious about. It's been in my cart several times, but always gets moved out at the last minute for something else. Mostly because of the price. I'll have a tin one day though.
It's usually going to be worth the risk for tobaccos you've heard good reviews about. The beauty of tobacco is most of it keeps well for a while. So if you try it and don't care for it, jar it and try again in a few months/ years. If you still don't like it, by then you'll have a good idea of what to trade it for.

Well, it is settled, Buy all your tobacco from your B&M. No problemo. If you have to think about the money then don't buy it.
Instead of regular Plum Pudding, I highly recommend going with Barrel Aged Plum Pudding, which is more of an Aromatic English. Especially since it seems you lean towards aromatics. It's really tasty.
I enjoyed Plum Pudding but I don't know if I enjoy it more than some other blends I buy, so I didn't reorder a tin.
Depends on whether you like it and how much of a hit $20 is for you. The only person who knows the answers to those questions is you. I know I don't like it enough to spend even $1 on it.
Honestly the worst pipe tobacco I have smoked was something apple and then second by Captain Black White. Which might be confusing as the I love the way it taste except for the fact that PG in that concentration tastes like cardboard that is damp with some kind of nasty cleaning chemical (seriously). The rest of the flavor is delightful and love the room note. But to my point the third worst tobacco I've smoked was fine and enjoyable but just not worth buying when there are so many others that I enjoy. Oh what's number 3 it's a tie. Between Bob's Chocolate flake and Capstan Blue. Both which are fine I just didn't see what the hype was about. Then again I adore Five Brothers and Sail Yellow.
So in short I've ran into two pipe tobaccos I couldn't smoke and two that I could only finish if I had nothing else to smoke.
I think all tobacco is worth trying you never know what you might like.
