Ries three star blue
This blend a a great mild smooth smoke with sweet flavor really coming through. The room note is fantastic. hardly any burnt ash taste after smoking, just sweet rich smoke. This was a great find for me. Give it a try if you like mild sweet, rich smoke with fantastic room note, You should give it a try.

Reis 3 Star Blue
Got this classic to see why was so well-liked..this is a good light aromatic...really relaxing, slow smoker. I let it dry for a half-hour or so..will smoke hot if not properly smoked, but still, very enjoyable different kind of blend.

None come close to this blend!
I first started smoking this tobacco when I received a free sample of it with a pipe I ordered from the Iwan Ries pipe shop in Chicago more than a decade ago. The blend is the world's most popular private label blend for a reason. The flavor and aroma are both satisfying and somehow familiar.....and unlike anything else out there. I has a great body, strong yet pleasing aroma to all I have been around while smoking it, and the flavor is indescribable. It burns slow, smokes cool, refreshes the mind and relaxes the body. It has been my go-to blend since bowl 1 without equal......and I have tried many, many tobaccos. I would often sample 4 or more new blends each time I visited the shop, but this one always towered above them all. No matter what other blends I may enjoy or even stockpile I will never give this one up. This blend is so pleasing that I would gladly trade a pound of any other blend for an ounce of this if it came to it. Seriously, try it and see for yourself. I've never met a pipe smoker that wasn't thoroughly happy with a bowl of this when I've offered. Not one. So happy to see more sites carrying it.
