Two Friends - Homeward Bound 2oz
It's a Winner
Old style blend done up with quality leaf. Sit back in the evening with a bowl and count your blessings.

Capstan - Flake Blue 1.75oz
Used to be better... way too pricey
This blend is still decent and likely really good with age. That being said, it has lost some leaf quality over the last 5 years. The nail in the coffin is the price. Absolutely ridiculous. You can find similar virginias that are as good or actually a lot better for almost half the price. Really sad.

Per Jensen - Legacy Collection: King's Watch 2oz
SWEET, BRIGHT, LEMONY!!
Fantastic, bright, crisp blend. Wonderful to smoke in the morning sun or anytime, really.

Per Jensen - Legacy Collection: Brothers in Arms 2oz
SMOKEY, SWEET, DARK TREAT... WITH A NIC HIT!
Like a mildy smokey cherry chocolate cream... with a kick! Really fantastic stuff.

Per Jensen - Legacy Collection: Port Guardian 2oz
EXCELLENT REDS...
You won't find any sweeter, dark, rich, fruity reds than this... 5 stars fresh. Now imagine what it will be with some age on it.

Cornell & Diehl - Star of the East
A dud for me
Really disappointed, as I had heard so many good things. I'm mostly an English smoker, so I feel like I've experienced a broad range. Getting it to light and stay lit was a chore, which was surprising, given the very dry nature of the tobacco. Overbearing taste of black licorice, which I despise. Maybe I just got a bad batch.

Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation - Small Batch Freja & Loki 2oz
Expensive... but worth every penny.
Fantastic, unique, and complex... how could anyone not absolutely love this blend?

Missouri Meerschaum - Party Line 2oz
COMPLETE surprise!
This blend was like a revelation. You get the deep, rich cocoa notes/flavors that a good cigar provides, without the cigar leaf backdrop. The scotch/malted topping plays perfectly in the background to round things out. I don't know that anyone could pull tongue bite or harshness out of this blend... incomparably smooth. Excellent, excellent, excellent... A+

Velvet - Velvet 1.5oz
Fantastic... Among the Best
As a newer smoker I am absolutely floored by all aspects of this tobacco. Pouch note, room note, flavor, and easy burn. Absolutely moving into my rotation. What a value!

Sutliff - Z92 Vanilla Custard
This is THE Vanilla.
If you are a vanilla fiend... this is all there is. pouch and room notes are absolutely intoxicating. If you want subtle vanilla, look elsewhere. The taste isn't nearly as powerful as the notes, but still delicious. It comes in moist but i have no issues lighting or keeping lit. This is my daily driver, nothing in the aromatic or non-aro family even comes close. The wife loves the smell of the smoke and the smell of my beard when i'm finished. You won't catch me without some of this jarred up. A+++++

Lane Limited - Very Cherry
This is the HEAVY Cherry
Have been looking for a cherry with LOADS of flavor and i've found it. As others have said, the bag note is extreme but not unpleasant. You get the cherry flavor from false light to finish. If you are looking for something subtle, this is not it. If you are a cherry fiend and want that cherry overload, this is it. Perfect moisture content out of the bag, lit and smoked very well. Very small amount of bite at the beginning, but entirely manageable. Smallish-medium sized bowl smoked for 45 minutes. I will be keeping this jarred and on hand at all times. A+
