[QUOTE="Blackhorse, post: 439399, member: 1365"] Today's entry to the field of honor...The Country Squire's "Black and Tan". This is a Burley/Cavendish blend with aromatic notes of Cocoa/Vanilla and a hint of Caramel. My thoughts: Looks handsome and smells delicious in the pouch. Cut is rough and aroma is a vanilla/chocolate/Caramel...all back a bit, but masking any tobacco aromas. It's not obnoxious or brash...very polite. The feel is light and not wet or sticky. As usual with a Country Squire blend it oozes quality in both the components and the process. The blend has great mechanics...meaning that it packs, lights and behaves well as it burns down. I can tell this is a Burley/Cavendish blend but the aromatics mostly cover the tobaccos. It doesn't want to burn hot and of course doesn't bite. The flavors are smooth and very nice. A friendly, easy smoke not requiring concentration, making it a good companion for work or play, field or shop, back porch or fireside. Pipe Used: Alpha Hand Made Freehand Plateaux Other's impressions: Black and Tan is a full flavored aromatic with a strong coffee taste, interspersed with lovely hints of dark chocolate. The taste of this blend paired with the incredible room note make for an aromatic lover's dream. This is what pipe smoking is all about! Five stars. Note: hmmmm. I didn't get any coffee at all...or 'dark' chocolate. As they say, YMMV. [/QUOTE]
