Does it live up to the hype? What were your thoughts?

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.

Not enough HH Vintage Syrian for a bowl. Not enough Arcadia for a bowl. What's a boy to do?

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.
