'04 Stoneheaven Review
I received a sample from Mister Moo, one of the finest & most generous cows on this board.
Enjoy the cell phone pics.
Pre-light aroma & appearance: Jet black just like fresh Stoney, some crystalization here & there. Smells like dark choclate, with some type of liquor smell as well, the words "rich" & "full" come to mind. Smells nothing like other VA/Burs I've had, probably due to some kind of casing. I dunno what they use, but I like it.

I'm smoking it in my Cellini, fully rubbed out. I let it dry on the counter for about an hour, it was fairly moist.




Well, it lit well & burned all the way down with no re-lights, just a small amount of dottle left. It burned pretty slowly, even though I rubbed it out very finely, about an hour for a small bowl. It had a musty aroma, just a hint of sweetness, again almost a liquor like aroma, very intoxicating (pun intended). More Burley than Virginia, so if you're not a fan of Burley you probably won't like it.
I enjoyed it thoroughly. If you're a fan of VA/Burs, I can't think of a better smoke. It lives up to it's reputation as being awesome, especially after just 6 short years of aging.
