| Arcadia is a nice blend. I thought that it might be too mild for me at first. But it soon settled in as a fine smoke. Not so much perique. Only a light sweat came up on my head. Perique seems to make me sweat. Probably some Tabasco in that recipe.  _________________

| I had loaded up a Ruthenberg with Peter Henrichs 312. Finally got around to smoking it. Typical Danish style tobacco. A lot of Virginia cavendish so I had packed it with a light hand. Easy to light and very good just sipped at. I suspect it would bite like a rabid cat if packed tighter and puffed up a bit. Similar to some of the MacBaren's blends. Can put a tingle on the tongue, as if it were spicy. _________________

| I am not sure who put the Carter Hall in with the samples. I will have to go back and read up and see. Whoevere you are, you are resposible for my new love for Carter Hall. I have been on a recent quest for all a day burley blend. Now between Carter Hall And Edgeworth I have found them. Carter Hall is a bit sweeter to me than EER. so it is great to have both. Thanks again.
