Benjamin Hartwell?

[Pipey McPiperson]

Made my weekly trip to the local B&M and picked up a couple old favorite as well as some new candidates.
The haul consisted of:
5 tins FVF
3 tins Peterson Perfect Plug
2 tins of Benjamin Hartwell Special Reserve (silver)

I was wondering if you guys have had much experience/information regarding the Hartwell baccy. I have not heard much if anything about it, and was just trying to put out some feelers. He had 3 different blends, all with black labels, yet each with different colored text. There was a bronze text, a silver text, and I believe a gold text version (not sure the varitation) Picked it up as a recommendation from my tobacconist.

Thanks in advance,
Drew

Made by McClelland for Altadis. I have a goodly amount of the 'Signature Blend' (silver text) stashed, which is a very nice McClelland matured VA broken flake. The other two are aromatics, so never really bothered stashing any (Chesdin is an English-like blend with a vanilla topping and Evening Stroll a vanilla aromatic of some type).
