Just got some Kentucky Premium, Maplewood, and Applewood. 1st Class stuff! Applewood has a REAL tobacco taste with just the right amount of apple in it - not overpowering. Same with the Premium, subtle caramel. Haven't tried the Maplewood yet, but I suspect it will be just as good. Thought I ordered the Cherrywood, but got Maplewood instead. Couldn't wait for any of it too steep (don't have to IMO) but I think it will just get better with age. If you like the REAL tobaccos (tobacco Absolute or Macerated tobacco) then you should try these.
