MATCH Field & Stream

What can I say? I like it. It must be the palette cleansing effect of the anise or licorice or whatever they threw in there. It's very flavorful but not too strong or overwhelming and is a good after lunch smoke so I can return to work unscathed and wait to have a Latakia bomb after quittin' time.

This has become my daily smoke blend. Whether its first thing in the morning with a cup of coffee or right before bed, the MATCH Field & Stream is always a pleasure to smoke.

Nice mellow smoke very indicative of the codger blends and since I am 78 we blend together nicely.

Pretty good. Enjoyable

Great smoke. It is a great match to the original. Always get compliments on how good it smells, too. Try it.

I'm not an aromatic fan, but wow...this is a good, good smoke. Just take it slow, I suggest a cob, and let your cares melt away my friends. Gonna get more for sure!

It has been a year since I last reviewed F&S. I love this blend. The only thing I can say different is that this is a semi aromatic blend. This blend is perfect for when I want something lite and fresh and naturally sweet. This is my favorite match blend with Ready Rubbed a distant second place.

Very good! Closer to Carter Hall taste then the CH Mixture in my opinion. Slightly sweeter on the tongue. My favorite Match mixture!

This tobacco brings me back to the farm. My grandfather would pack his pipe after a hard day, bring out his telescope, and show me the constellations as his pipe steadily chugged along, clenched between his teeth. It’s a calming, mellow blend that creates a sensation of security and wonder, bringing me back to the days when life was made up of climbing corn cribs and hiding in haylofts. It helps me find a sense of peace. I’ve heard several of my neighbors step out and smell the aroma, stop and sigh to themselves and say something along the lines of “Oh that takes me back to a simpler time,” with a smile on their face and a nostalgic look in their eye. It brings me great joy to bring that memory not only to myself, but to the people within our neighborhood. It is a delicious blend.

This is a excellent match blend of field &stream I first smoked in 1967 light taste of anise,vanilla, hint of whiskey? Very mild burns slowly cool taste of burly. Very refreshing an relaxing blend..for new pipe smokers pick up a few vintage briar pipes smoke the burly blends in these only! P&c has great prices on new pipes use these for areos areos and burly will ghost your vintage pipes. Relax an enjoy a trip to the 1960 s Robert

Very good will order more

Not a bad flavor at all. Though I'm letting it dry out a bit more. The package I recieved was a bit to moist to my preference.

Used field and stream years ago then switched to half and half. Tried the Match stream and really like it. It will be my regular from now on.

Very close to the original. Room small is a bit too mild, more aromatic in the old days

I have been on a codger blend kick lately and figured after trying many types, Carter Hall seemed to be my choice for an all day smoke. Then, I discovered this mixture. I never smoked the original but this blend is a keeper. I am not great at describing all the flavor nuances but this stuff smokes great packs nicely and is a smooth all day smoke. While not being sickly sweet, it has a "fresh" flavor to it. Kind of like being by a field or stream :) I am going to cellar this fine blend so I will never be without. I have only smoked this blend in a cob. Cobs are all I smoke. Can't beat this combination.

Very good tobacco, tastes like velvet without the toppping or tongue bite.

Good all around aromatic with plenty of tobacco flavor. Licorice topping similar to Mix 79. Don't let that scare you, it's about the perfect topping for tobacco. No soap or florals. Presentation is excellent w/ large chunks of burley in a hearty mix. Burn is hit and miss, probably due to these same large burley chunks.

Has a nice gentle flavor of licorice and maybe some type of a whiskey in the background not overpowering. I really enjoy this one while walking outside in the woods on the back trails. For those that like the liquor ouzo this pairs well with it. Also pairs pretty good with southern comfort

Excellent No bite Burly foward will buy again.

My everyday smoke No bite Easy lite Love it

I really liked the original. This recipe match is excellent. Now, I can’t remember if there is even a difference. If you’re an F&S fan, give this a smoke. You’ll be happy.

As a new pipe smoker, I've been in search of a blend that has a sweetness without being an overbearing aromatic, ease of smoke, and pleasant aroma. Match Field and Stream is without a doubt my perfect blend. The taste which they get from a burley is something I've yet to find anywhere else. Worth mentioning that I haven't enjoyed burleys before this one. I cannot recommend this tobacco enough, and personally will be investing in this one further!

This is a great tobacco.. nice flavor profile and good smoke. My only complaint is that it's a bit moist, although this can easily be cured. Has a bit of a licorice flavor and you can taste the burley. Reminds me of a beautiful fall day.

Very flavorful, first time try but will definitely get more. Burns evenly and cool with no bite.

Will buy again

...an excellent Match tobacco...I smoked a good deal of this back in the late '60's and early 70's... Sutliff's Match is far better than the original...

Fine tobacco, not as mild as I thought it would be, but serves the purpose.

One of my everyday smokes. Lot's of flavor, well balanced. I can't figure out how it could be off the market. I smoke mostly at home but if I want something dependable to put in my pouch when I'm on the go- this is it.

As soon as you open the bag, that familiar aroma of that classic blend hits you like the great outdoors. In my opinion, this is a 95% match of flavor and aroma you would expect from the original. I am not a fan of aromatic tobaccos, but this is the only one I smoke. I highly recommend this match for those who miss the original.

Been smoking this for a while. Look the tobacco, just a blend that can be easily smoked all day.

A great blend....memories of times past!!!!

Sorry but I wasn't impressed at all. Tasted weak and without the original flavors. This dog can't hunt !

Brings back memories from years long,long ago. Mild smoke, no bite, will once again be one of my go to smokes. Wife says she even likes the smell.

I smoked the original Field & Stream for over 50 years until the company when out of business....House of Windsor, I think. The match seems to taste better for some reason. I like it and buy it in 5lb bulk a couple of times a year.

Nice smoke. The taste and the room note is unique in a way I cannot describe, and is not overpowering, like many aromatics. Burned nice and cool, but for some reason could not seem to keep it lit. Could have been me, or my pipe. With the change in seasons around the corner, I feel that this blend will go great on a chilly afternoon with a pumpkin ale.
