It definitely smells like tea!

citrus notes that go well together. I usually like medium English and I smoke those (Presbyterian, 965, Commonwealth, etc.). When I do smoke aromatics, I choose blends that go back and forth along the same medium line as them. These include Dan Tobacco's Blue Note and Sutliff's Revelation Match, but I recommend them to pipe smokers who prefer blends that are harmonious and less harsh in aroma....Read More

What a great tasting... tea?

Earl Gray tea) are flavors I think of as Creamsicle; orange and vanilla flavored ice cream bars which are a real treat for kids in the Summertime (originally called Dreamsicles). Not only do I detect these flavors in this great aromatic mixture, but it is almost as refreshing too. It never bites. It burns rather cool. It's not even remotely chemical tasting. As aromatics go, it is not sopping wet or gooey and acts like a nice bright Virginia most of the time even tasting like hay or tea occasionally too. It's a nice ribbon cut that packs easily and burns consistently all the way down. I find the flavor of Oxford Blend to be similar to Holger Dansk Original Mild Orange too, but Oxford is slightly more refined tasting and slightly milder. The cut is a bit more consistent and of finer ribbon as well. Overall, I like both, but Oxford is just tastier. Like I said, I think this is a very refreshing blend. Sometimes when I'm having several bowls of heavier blends, this is one I can smoke in between to cleans my palate and sort of re-set when changing blend types. It is mild enough that it would be a good one for new pipe smokers to start out with, especially if they have a sweet tooth. This blend is a good example of how different various pipe tobaccos can be and why flavor is so important to our hobby. And, as flavored as this is, I can always taste the tobacco and that's so important to me. I've liked all of the Vauen blends I've tried so far, and Oxford is one of their best. Enjoy....Read More

Excellent For Blending With Burley’s

goes a long way in improving the note of some of the harsher burley blends. I’ve had people come across the parlor to find out what I’m smoking. Non smokers find it pleasing as well....Read More
