Seattle Pipe Club Plum Pudding Special Reserve Pipe Tobacco

This is a very complex blend that is very, very good. The tin note was a bit off-putting to me, smelling a bit vinegary and strong and stayed on my fingers. However, upon charring, I got a very rich, buttery mouthful of smoke that brought a smile to my face and immediately I knew I was in for a treat. Rich & buttery, it has hints of a deep, earthy sweetness. Exactly as described on the website, the flavor profiles fade in and out between a hint of peppery heat, bready earthiness, smoky depth, a hint of saltiness…. It’s all over the spectrum with so much complexity. It lit well, but did require a few relights. I crumbled off a bit from the corner of the cake, so I will experiment with how I break it down to help it stay lit more consistently, but overall this is a 5 star product. It’s potent enough to satisfy without being overwhelmingly strong. Excellent product.

Apparently this is a popular tobacco. After buying some I can see why. If you like the Latakia smoke, get it.

It's by far my favorite tobacco I've tried. It's taste to the end of the bowl is always satisfying and. I enjoy it. With any thing I'm doing

So outta all the tobaccos I've tried on this website this is by far my favorite the taste never gets old it has multiple flavors and you can torch on it and it doesn't get gross and it smoked all the way down to ash thanks Seattle pipe club for this amazing flavor and it's my favorite to smoke with my daddy it's like bonding time. Mmmhh

Ok after being Jarred for 8 weeks the sharpness of the overall note has really taken a back seat also when I jarred it I cut it into 3/8 plus size slices and just sort of broke it up like 3 chunks per slice. This blend now has mellowed into a very meaty slightly fruity sweet flavor that I can honestly say I can occasionally enjoy. I really don't rub it out just squeeze a chuck and lightly pack. All the sharpness seems to have disappeared. And I have decided that it may be a good idea to invest in some more and jar the same way. Figure it will be a decent smoke after a good time with some air to mellow it. Or maybe I'll just invest in the reg plum pudding and see how that is.

I am not sure how people are saying this is terrible tobacco. As winter is coming to an end here in PA I am getting a little sad knowing I won't have anymore cold days to warm up with some Plum Pudding.

Eh honestly not really impressed. I've been a on again off again pipe smoker for 30 years now and I find I gravitate towards the Cavendish blends over English blends. This i find is far from the description. Upon opening I was hit with a pungent funkyness I was trying to identify. Finally figured it out Creasote just like a railroad tie. After a full slice taken and loaded I found it to be very English blend taste which really didn't impress me. But I found mixed 1:1 with a aged Maduro black Cavendish it added much more complex tastes. To each his own at least I can finish this can off. Not really sure if I would purchase again will have to wait and see.

Garbage tobacco. I’ve tried 100s of tobaccos and loved almost all of them. This was straight disgusting and a waste of money. Smells terrible too.
