My first impression was favorable; it is different from any pipe tobacco I've ever tried. Definitely some new smells and tastes there, some campfire memories in there and some other tastes that I can't quite pin down yet. It was very smooth and mellow, yet robust at the same time. It smoked dry all the way to the bottom, just a tiny bit left. Can't wait to smoke it in some different pipes; it's hard to review it with just one bowl in a tiny pipe.Quote:

Why, dump the Arcadia on top of the HHVS, that's what! And I'll tell you, they've morphed into something sweeter and more floral than their singular parts would suggest. It's quite nice if yer like me and want to hoard all of the Bengal, Lancer's Slices, and Fusilier's Rations.

Boy, I feel terribly about not remembering the name of the carver. I bought this a few years back on another site directly from the carver for no more than $150, and he's since gone on to ask significantly more for his pipes. It's a beauty. Wonderfully stained, wonderfully grained, beautiful rolling sort of Danish-style with sexy little curves and a tiny cumberland stem, and it's easily my best smoker.
