John Middleton, Inc Cherry Blend

Middleton's Cherry Blend is one of the long-running examples of American over-the-counter aromatics. A pronounced cherry flavoring is applied over a base built from Burley and Virginia leaf; the cut is ribbon and it's offered moist enough to pack directly into a pipe. On the smoke, the cherry note stands out in both taste and aroma, with the tobacco base staying measured underneath it. Strength is low and the smoke is medium in intensity. John Middleton's history, tracing back to a shop founded in Philadelphia in 1856, marks its place in the American pipe tobacco tradition.
