Humidor Pure Pipe Pleasure

Really not what I was looking for! I've heard some really good stuff about Calume vanilla cigarettes before, and so I tried this for my pipe. I only smoked one or two pipes of it - it's very strong and rough and doesn't really taste of anything in particular. I'm a "smooth and sweet" smoker.

Very strong and "rough". I prefer smooth tobacco, and this is the opposite of smooth. Doesn't really taste like whiskey either.

What a roller coaster...! From hell, with love! The aroma from the tobacco in the can is nothing short of heavenly - like a most delicious fruit tea. But what a disappointment - once in the pipe it truly became the tobacco from hell. Rough and harsh, all that wonderful aroma was nowhere to be found and it tasted like earth and old hay. The mixture barely burned and after just a few bowls I gave up the entire can and moved on to something better. However, a month or so later I revisited the can out of pure desperation when it was all I had left, and lo and behold - it was suddenly fantastic! I smoked the rest and loved it... Months later I visited a good friend who smoked something delicious, and I asked which tobacco it was; it was Devil's Holiday! Apparently this tobacco is terrible when fresh, but heavenly when dried up a bit. I will absolutely order this again, now when I know how to handle it!

I thought this was a lightweight, plastic container, but it's actually a glass jar... I haven't tried it yet.

It's hard to compare filters, but I found these excellent.

I might be making this up in my head, but these might be a fraction thinner than other filters... I should probably get my calipers out before making any claims, but I'm too lazy.

These are pretty great. I think they probably do contribute to a less wet smoking experience, but more importantly they keep the tobacco from clogging up the draw hole in the bottom of the bowl!

My new favourite. Burns excellently, tastes great and smells wonderful.

Wow! My new favourite! This tobacco is heavily aromatic and smells so good that you'll want to eat it directly from the box. Like coffee and cake... It's rather moist compared to other brands, but burns perfectly nice in the pipe. The smoke is extremely mild and soothing but with a very pleasant taste and smell. Yummy! A bit more expensive than other brands, but worth every penny. Update 2023: This is still the best stuff around and a must have in every order!

Nice and gentle. Smells quite like fruit-tea, but the taste is less fruity than excpected. There is a small aftertaste of something more spicy, I can't put my finger on it... The tobacco was rather dry when I opened the package.

A sweet & mild tobacco. I personally prefer the really fruity ones, and on that point I think this one is missing something. I've still bought it more than once though.

I always include one of these when I buy stuff from here. The taste and aroma is very smooth, mild and sweet. Smells like a newly baked fruit cake, it\'s so delicious you want to eat it right out of the box...

Great stuff, excellent aroma, very well balanced! Reminds me of my old favorite, Connoisseurs Choice by Petersen. Will buy again for sure!

I normally prefer smooth, fruity, and aromatic blends. This one is not aromatic at all but still surprised me with its pleasant, smooth smoke. If you can't get hold of an aromatic blend this will do as a substitute.
