While it's not my worst, I totally had a similar experience with this blend. I let it sit 8 years and still did not really enjoy it.Bayou Morning.
I know, I know, most people like it, but I cannot smoke it.
I originally thought it was the amount of Perique in the blend.
But, I now believe its just how the Perique interplays with the other components maybe. There are other blends that have the same amount or MORE Perique which I love. Va/Pers are one of my favorite genres.
I bought a pound of it about 8 years ago and did not like it.
I put it away until this Spring, and I still dislike it.
Ive given a bunch away and will continue to give it away.
Bayou Morning with 8 years of age might be some guys dream.....its still my nightmare.

I wonder if you tried C&D Visions of Celephais?
My only horrible experience with tobacco came with 1792. Flavor was meh and she burned hotter than a Thai hooker.
But I knew I was a noob, and I often march at triple cadence, so I knew not to toss it. I recently found a little jam jar I kept of it from 2013. In the interest of science I owe it to the blend to try again.
I know it is all subjective. I mean there are people who eat beef liver (and balls), and all manner of sea things that are eww. So it stands to reason we here can list off out hated tobacco and someone else is like, "Dang, really? I like that one a lot".
I don't love Haunted Bookshelf, but i get just enough flavor to see why some might. Turns out I like Deertongue, so Crooner scratches an occasional craving. I was blessed to try a tobacco from the 1950s at a Seattle Pipe Club gathering that served as the best possible way to introduce me to geranium Lakeland-ness. So I like that, too.
To to those of you hating on MacB Navy flake, I give no quarter!! Beatings will continue until morale improves!!
Kidding! But I was again blessed when first starting out to get a few tins off ebay that had 5 years age on them. It is good fresh, but sublime with 5 years in it.
