u write a critical review saying how there are other blends that are better when you didn’t buy it for its intended use— casings… topping with a flavoring… followed by blending with other varietals as a hobby or a custom blend to sell to your customers as a house blend....Read More

any casing or flavoring I can’t detect it. Very well done blend that should age quite well. Looking forward to cellaring a good bit of this blend. Many thanks to Jeremy and Cornell and Deihl for this one. I’m quite fond of it....Read More

Oak and Ember is a mildly cased Burley-forward blend. The Burley is not rough but rather mild and pleasant. A nutty, woodsy taste and scent. Slight spice. A mild sourness that would be expected of Burley not put into any process (like Cavendish). A nicotine hit in the mild plus range.
After a confirmation with Laudisi, the blend has Dark Burley (stronger in taste than White Burley) in the driver’s seat and Red Virginias (more dark fruit) in the passenger seat. There is decent balance, a pleasant retrohale, and the sense you are smoking pure tobacco without a lot of processing. Casing but no topping.
If one is a home blender, and envisioned a blend that contained Dark Burley and Red Virginias, Oak and Ember would be a good start to a newer and perhaps more sophisticated blend end product. Adding a bit of Perique perhaps, or some dark-fired Kentucky, or an Oriental or two ….
I like this a whole lot more than Haunted Bookshop or Old Joe Krantz because it is relatively smoother and more pleasant. On my palate this blend rates 3.0 out of 4 stars on TR and 4 out of 5 stars here....Read More
