A base of the highest grades of Cavendish, with just a bit of Burley, is enhanced with wonderfully sweet Virginia tobaccos to make Two Friends' Celtic Mist. A delightful tobacco flavor sets the stage, enhanced, not overwhelmed, by the addition of a little essence of Irish Mist. The room aroma is equally enchanting to those fortunate enough to be in the presence of the smoker.
Celtic mist is an aborted mission to the land of aromatics. It was impossible for me to finish the tin after three times trying it. I had to sell the rest to someone who loved it.
Although the idea is good, the casing that resembles some form of odd... Read More baileys, cappuchino or latte becomes so damn ugly, above all bitter (in the worst sense possible), covering the tongue with something that resembles wax, clogging the pipe with tar, i mean really nasty.
And if you try to get the tobacco taste there is nothing since it is all veiled behind the wall of deranged casing.
The worst experience ive had so far while smoking pipes. Half a star is way too much for this abomination. Read Less
I really wanted to like this, based on the description and the reputation of the blenders Greg and Craig ... I LOVE Redwood and think it's way under appreciated. Celtic Mist MISSED by a long shot. It smells pretty nice in the tin, and upon lighting i... Read Moret seems nice, but about the time you get it going, it changes to goupy Black Cavendish mess, there is VA and Burley in here? I can't tell if the "Celtic Essence" (essence of what exactly spoiled Guinness and rotten corned beef and cabbage?) or the Black Cavendish are the predominant flavor, whatever it is is pretty disgusting "The room aroma is equally enchanting to those fortunate enough to be in the presence of the smoker." They must be running, this smells of rotting vegetation and other foul things.
No, this is a dog rocket of a mixture, I'm trying to find someone to give the rest of the 8 ounce tin to who will like it, wish me luck! Maybe I'll just pout the whole mess in the garden as compost AND HOPE IT KILLS BUGS Read Less
Yes, what was I thinking when I ordered this tobacco? What I was thinking was based on the description on the label it sounded like something I would enjoy. NOT! I smoked one bowl of this Two Friends Celtic Mist and just could not finish it. I found ... Read Moreno pleasure in smoking it. I read the label on the can and sounded like a nice blend of tobacco with "highest grades of Cavendish, with just a bit of Burley, wonderfully sweet Virginia tobaccos, hmm, sounds good. Then the description goes on to say "addition of a little essence of Irish Mist." Hmm, sounds good again. Something I think I would enjoy. It was just horrible. There was definitely more then "an addition of a little essence of Irish Mist." It was like the tobacco was soaked in a barrel of Irish Mist and then put in a strainer so the saturated tobacco would drain off. I found no joy in smoking this Celtic Mist. I really don't understand why Cornell and Diehi would create this and I can't understand why SmokingPipes would sell it to their customers.
Why would anyone ruin a perfectly good cup of coffee by adding a large amount of sugar and cream? Or even add any at all. Read Less
I am not a huge aromatic fan, but this was very good. This is one of the few aromatics that tastes just as good as it smells. The flavoring is definitely there but not overwhelming.
