Prince Albert

Yessss Prince Albert. Tobias sent me PA to review.😂

Not sure of the date cept someone wrote 3-18-13 on it... I guess Mar 2013, so it has some age on it.

It seemed to be about perfect moisture, not soaking wet but not crumbly dry.

Smoked it it a MM bent stem cob, MM general cob and a small briar estate bulldog from Pugsley.

I pack my pipe by sprinkling baccy in then grabbing some tightly and pressing it into the bowl. It works for men but don't know if it has a fancy name. The PA packed nicely.

Opening the pack and snuffling up the aroma... Nice, hint of sweet but burley is present.

Baccy lit well and held fire nicely nonreligts except when I laid the like down for extended time.

Room note, seemed okay, wife preferred aros over the Prince Albert.

Flavor. First bowl after doing industrial maintenance, well it wasn't great, but I blamed the residue I was covered in. Second and third bowl I was like meh, burley and something. The last few bowls I began to understand why people smoke and recommend it. The burley is present, i detected some sweet notes and about halfway through a bowl a touch of woodiness.

I'm a noob piper with an unrefined pallete. This was an enjoyable smoke to relax with. I can see an experienced piper smoking it when they don't want to have to think about what they're puffing, just enjoy the motions of smoking a pipe.

Not much else to say, I'll buy some when I get this pouch further down.

Thanks to Tobias for the baccy, and Pugsley for the 2 pipes I smoked it in.
