Deacon’s downfall is powerful stuff--if that’s you’re thing it could be your Achilles heel just like it was for the deacon. Best with at least a little aging, this blend for those pipe smokers who like to go big.

Very robust. A great after dinner in my favorite meershaum tobacco!
I am totally hooked on this stuff. A couple of weeks ago I bought a small tin of it and it went quick! Now I have a LARGE tin!

Try this stuff.
Packs and burns well enough, you might want to dry it out a little. Full flavored, a little past medium nic content. A very complex blend with many flavors including (but not limited to) smoky, leathery, sweet, spicy, woody, bitter, salty. This blend would be better with a year or two of age but my tin was pretty fresh and I loved it anyway. I will say that like a lot of complex English blends it seems to be better a week or so after opening, I think it needs to breathe a little. One of my favorites, if you like English and Balkan blends try this stuff asap.
