Food Fight

Not a fan of aromatics but this one I like. Smooth with no bite, great room note.

Great aroma and some interesting fruity and nutty flavors going on in there. I definitely enjoyed it!

Very aromatic, pleasant to experience and a warm hint of peach cobbler. Will buy again, looking forward to try the other flavors from Ole Shenandoah.

Very nice mild peachy flavor.

This blend is a real treat. Fantastic aroma and room note. Highly recommend.

great taste and very good aroma

Will ghost the hell out of your pipe. Tastes like old dried apricots, not fresh fruity ones. If you like stale old fruit cake, this might be up your alley.

Hands down one the best aromatics I've tried and it's one of those rare cases where the blend actually tastes like it smells. The tin notes and flavors I get is definitely the apricot majority of the time but also some coffee and some times close to a Werther's Original or a Buttered Rum Lifesaver. Highly recommend and definitely I will be keeping a tin on hand when I'm in the mood for an aro

better than Borkum Riff; and i like Borkum Riff. the best flavor of Old Shenendoah

It is an okay blend not my favorite

By far this is my favorite tobacco out of the almost 50 different blends I have. It is fantastic.

Very smooth and my wife loves the aroma. A nice and somewhat pleasing smoke. A great change from the Latakia blends which I love. Everyone loves the room note when I smoke either one.

good aroma. good taste. will reorder.

Nice smooth and reminds me of peach cobbler. A good bourbon helps to bring the flavor out.

Great for a laid back smoke!

strange flavoring agent (apricots): great taste I've been smoking it for about 10 years!

I would have loved more flavor on the tongue. Room note is nice though. Had to let it dry a bit before it would light consistently, but not unusually so.

Pretty good. Not too strong on the sweetness or aromatics. It doesn’t stay as well lit as “bootlegged,” does but still makes for a decent summer smoke.

Nice smell people ask what is it not even lit, Puffed the first day it arrived a few times it was nice. Forgot about for 2 weeks pulled it back out.....Oh yes great smoke now. This will be my aromantic from now on.

A very good summer smoke. The peach is noticeable without being overly sweet. Its a nice change up from the English/Balkans I usually smoke.

Since my house is not air conditioned, the tobacco turns to sludge in the summer. Melange is my go-to because it's in a little tin. By the time it gets too wet, the tin is empty.

Smooth and delightful.

good taste. great room note with just a hint of peach but not overpowering. no tongue burn for me at least

It is the only tobacco my husband will smoke. He says it is smooth, not harsh and he likes the flavor. I like the delicious aroma.

I thought I would try this out and I was pleasantly surprised. The moist mix needed to dry for a day or two before i could get a good taste on a long burn. But the peach is there and not overbearing. I will order this again for the rotation.

Good room note. Nice burn. Ready to smoke right out of the tin. Will probably buy again.

I loved it!!!, I can taste the peach and love every second of the smoke. I'm most definitely putting it in rotation. Plan on adding a dash to moon trance and seeing how well they pair.

I love this blend as an occasional departure from my regular tobacco; it has great taste, great room, and no bite. If I did not enjoy alternating tastes so much, this could become my ONLY tobacco.

I have sampled hundreds of different blends, and NONE tops this one. Seattle Pipe Club Plum Pudding comes close - at twice the price! This Melange has a great flavor, wonderful can aroma, and a very pleasant room. Add to that the slow burn it gives, and you just cannot beat it!

I'm new to pipe smoking in general and can say this is one of the better peach pipe tobaccos I have tried! very smooth and I find no bad after taste!

Probably the best aromatic I’ve tried. Love the flavor way it smokes and room note. No bite. Is great flavors.

Yes, it's definely soft and fuzzy. This taste more like schnapps than of peaches. There is a mild sweetness, less than what the tin smell would lead you to believe. I like the Appalachian Berry alot, and thought this would be a peachy version, it is not. It's not terrible, and you may enjoy this light mild smoke with some sweet tea. I blend it with other fruity blends I don't care for to make a fruit bowl for entertainment purposes. Room note is good.

I usually smoke heavier English/Balkan blends, but I like an aromatic as a change of pace. The peach aroma and flavor is quite subtle, but the overall smoking experience is pleasant. Easy to pack, easy to light, easy drawing, no bite, no gurgle, smokes cool, and has an ample mouthful of smoke.

Very good smoke

Stanwell Melange is currently my second favorite pipe tobacco. It smells amazing in the can, is mellow to smoke, while still having a nice flavor and note. It's the first thing I've smoked that was buttery. Very pleasant. Keep in mind I'm still new to the hobby, so I have many more tobaccos to try.

The Fuzzy Schnapps was alright. I've pulled dryer things out of my sink. All the moisture made a mess of my pipe. By the end of the 2 weeks it took me to smoke the can, the flavor had really started to suffer.

good smoke. great flavor. one of my new favorites. will be buying more.

Not a fan of this one. Taste and smell both light. Kind of has a off putting smell and flavor reminiscent of old lady perfume.

Tasty...not overpowering on the fruit flavor, just a real nice smoke.

This tobacco is a very good peach flavored tobacco. It has a mild peach taste and burns evenly without any tongue bite. I highly recommend it.

It's pretty good, I'll give it that. Tin and room note is great. But I gave it 4 stars because compared to stanwell melange it doesn't have the absolute best peachy flavor. Everything about it is great but the taste could be a little bit smoother and more flavorful.

An enjoyable change up from my normal tobaccos with one of, if not the most, pleasant room note.

very nice

A good and smooth tobacco. But not what I was expecting. Not my bag of tea.

This could very well be an everyday smoke for me! This is an aromatic but it's not to sweet and not sticky at all. Had a great almost apricot flavor. You can't freight train it cause it will bite!

Just received a tin. Really like this stuff! Mild smoke, smells great and stays lit. This is my first try at Ole Shenandoah. Have a tin of the Bootlegger on order. Now if only P&C could get more Appalachian Berry .....

When I first tried this blend, it blew me away. I've been smoking a pipe since 1987, and never had anything quite like it. It was peach, but had some kind of effervescent quality to it. I would call this one "Peach Soda". It had a unusual fizzy essence that's hard to describe. Like Peach and Cream Soda combined. Other peaches (like Stokkebye "Peaches & Creme") are dull in comparison. I went through about 25 tins of this in the last several months. For the last 12 years, I've been living in Amsterdam for 3-4 months per year, and on my last trip over, all I took was 12 tins of this in my suitcase. Hajenius tobacco shop is a 5 minute walk from my apartment, and I even took some in there and smoked it with the guys in the store. I also smoked a bunch of this walking around Geneva, Barcelona, Warsaw, and London during October and November, and loved it. But something happened recently, where I stopped enjoying it as much. Not sure if it's me, or the formula changed a little. The last couple tins gave me a bad nicotine buzz and just didn't seem like it did when if first came out. Sometimes this happens. I noticed when the Drew Estate pipe tobaccos first were released, I thought they were incredible. Then subsequent tins didn't live up to the first ones. Maybe these companies back-off on the topping, or fine-tune it for the worse. Not sure. It could be me. I'd still suggest anyone into heavy, fruity aromatics try this one. There was something here that I haven't experienced in a peach blend before. That "fizzy pop" element is really unusual. The first 20 tins were heavenly. But the last few haven't been as enjoyable, and not sure if it's me or the latest batch.

I really like this tobacco. Great tastes, no bite, nice room note and excellent beard note. I will buy more - eventually.

Great flavor, no bite. Its getting hard to choose which Ole Shenandoah I like the best.

I saw this tinned aromatic on the P & C website but hadn't bought it. Recently, I did and was well pleased. Upon opening the tin, I detected a strong apricot aroma. Upon lighting, I tasted a fruitiness in the heavy smoke though not necessarily apricot. If you want a sweet tasting, change-of-pace aromatic, then this wonderful blend is for you.

Upon opening the tin I was greeted with the unpleasant artificial chemical smell associated with many fruit flavored aromatics, so I was not looking forward to smoking it. But to my surprise upon lighting up the bowl it tasted wonderful ... sweet and flavorful - but unfortunately not a hint of the peaches I was expecting. Can't put my finger on what exactly what the dominant flavor was, but it wasn't peaches. Closer to figs and raisins. Regardless, it was a pretty damn pleasant smoking experience. Moist, but not overly, a very mild smoke, easy on the tongue, burned to a nice white ash mixed with just the slightest bit of doddle at the bottom of the bowl. And even though I detected no peach flavor while smoking, the room note had the unmistakable scent of peach cobbler baking in oven. So apparently the peach is there somewhere. I'd definitely buy this again. As a side note I recently purchased an estate pipe from a local antique shop with a severe Latakia ghost. Even after a salt treatment the ghost lingered. But after one bowl of Fuzzy Schnapps the doddle left behind appeared to exorcise the ghost and the bowl no longer reeks of Latakia. Went back the following day and the smell was completely gone.

Great taste and the aroma is something very special

Nasty

Very nice

Like so may of the items I want from your store, this one was out for MONTHS. I like Peach and this one was no different.....Like so may aromatics i smoke this one becomes a "normal smoke" when the flavor goes away. I still like it and will buy more when it becomes available....(Like so many other items from your site!)

Waited a long time to try this I have only had several bowls but sofar it's very good

I have been looking for a peach flavor tobacco to add to my rotation and had been somewhat unsuccessful, until now. I was beginning to think I would not find one that was worth smoking. The pouch and room note is very good. The tobacco is consistent with Barrel 76, burning slow, with few relights and not even a whisper of tongue bite

Great smoker, from Pipes & Cigars. Great service, quick delivery!

Smooth and a good fruity flavor. I use my church warden to get the coolest smoke and best flavor. I t has a nice, subtle, peach aftertaste.

If you like Newminster Creamy Peaches but wish it was fizzy then this is the answer.

I just love this stuff. I can taste and feel the fuzziness! I highly recommend trying it.

Great flavors, tin, and room notes. A light tobacco that can smoke all day. Can bite if you try.. but fairly dry out of the tin and if smoked slowly no issues.

Very Smooth with deep fruits and mellow taste.

To all the aromatic lovers this should be on your list, treat it lightly and all the sweet fruit flavors will come thru.

This is a delicious and flavorful tobacco and is one of my top 5 favorites. It does come a little damp and sticky and I sometimes get some liquid in the pipe stem. Keep your pipes clean and you should have quite a pleasant experience

What a great find! Excellent aroma! A genuine pleasure every time!

Has a combination of ribbon and flake cut tobaccos with a medium moisture content. This one has both a tin and a room note akin to pecan pie with a touch of coconut to my senses which I really like (tin says apricot, but that doesn't register for me)! It lingers after smoking. A low-mid nicotine hit (great for those of us who aren't after high nic).

quickly becoming a go to smoke.

Fantastic! My tastes are all over the place, from aero to non-aero, and this is by far one of the best aero's I have ever had. The mysterious Melange offers up many intriguing flavours without being too sweet; there is something of an apricot top note to it but there are layers of complexity below that make this a curiously robust aero. Smokes evenly and cleanly, standing out from the crowd in quality and taste.

this stuff is awesome. yes it's an aero, but it's not overly wet. The flavor is smooth but wonderfully complex. Pair it with a glass of that hard root beer... whoa! awesome!
