Pleasantly Surprised

I must say I was somewhat skeptical when I originally purchase my first tin. Upon opening the tin, a natural sweetness filled the air. Filling the pipe I notice a somewhat sticky tobacco. From the first bowl I discovered a mild smoke with the delicate, yet complex taste that leaves you wanting more. A slight hint of apricot gave the mixture a delicate sweet taste. The aroma was nice and as mild as the flavors. If you're looking for a mild, yet flavorful blend I would recommend trying this. I now keep an extra tin on hand.

Stanwell Melange


It's said to have a fruity, citrus, apricot like flavor to it, but myself I find it more of a coffee type flavor. To me it smelled, and tasted, like something you'd get at Starbucks. Burned pretty well, and didn't require much relighting. I have heard complaints of it ghosting pipes, but haven't encountered this problem myself. Surely worh a try if you like aromatics.
