I live in Rotterdam, The Netherlands (for the last 25 years). I really like both the HU and Dan Tobaccos. Haven't found a loser yet! I have Indaba and like it. I think of it as a Flintstone blend, Yaba Daba Du... Enjoy your smoked ham!
Thanks for the review. I've been enjoying this one for a good bit now. I love the creamy smoke volume and flavor, but wish it had stronger taste. It burns good wet in my experience. I've tried probably 5 or 6 of the new HU's, and i agree, they are very smooth and refined. One of the things I like about C&D is the stronger flavors, but much less refined when fresh, which I don't mind with the burley blends. The Director's cut is amazing in my opinion. Happy Thanksgiving!
I agree with you. Although I don't find the rougher edges of C&D appealing any more. I like strong tobaccos like HH ODF and Rustica or the G&H black/brown ropes. I'm really enjoying the creaminess of HU.
That little pipe reminds me of my Dagner poker, if the bowl kicked the bucket and I put a country gentleman bowl on the shank. Happy Thanksgiving man, sweet smokes
Happy Thanksgiving Brian! Sounds like a great family gathering for Thanksgiving Dinner -very nice. 6 bay garage - wow. I have not broken into any of my HU's yet. A cob lit with a bic! Nice and simple - no pretense here baby. Tool Boxes look good. My 2 car garage must be able to get 2 cars into it! That's my rule too. Pretty nice workshop you have and still leave yourself room for the cars - pretty rare. The pipe drawer is awesome. Thanks for taking the time out of your Thanksgiving to give us a vid.
Thanks for stopping by my friend, your smoking area is amazing so glad you get to enjoy it. Man your in for a real treat with the HU very good stuff, I tried to order more Haymaker and Dockworker from Estervals but they won’t accept visa or Mastercard anymore only American Express. Enjoy your weekend
Good Evening 😊 Fantastic Review👌🏽 Sounds Like Another Good Blend 💯 Happy Thanksgiving To You and Your Family 🙏🏽 May The Lord Bless Your Home Abundantly 🙏🏽 Enjoy and Have a Fabulous Time With The Family 🤗 God Bless You 🙏🏽 Greetings From South Africa 🇿🇦
Honestly the HU blends are on par with anything from esoterica on my opinion, I’m surprised at how readily available they are at Smokingpipes, I swore when it was announced they would carry them that they would be hoarded to oblivion, and they’re also surprisingly cheap! Happy thanksgiving sir !
Happy Thanksgiving Brian. Good luck to your Cowboys today. I'm preparing to load up some Directors Cut to smoke with my brother. I am going to have to try some of these other HU tobaccos as they show up. Enjoy your family time.
Enjoying my pipe with you Brian online I’m up in the Smokies all the way from New York overlooking Gatlinburg and watching your video. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. Navy roll flake day for me.
I'll have to try this one. I've enjoyed the HU stuff so far--especially Zulu and Khoisaan. Still have yet to crack the Dark Moor or Asmara. Agree with you about the quality of tobacco from HU.
I was fortunate enough to order some HU tobacco from Smokingpipes including 4 tins of the Directors Cut, I’m looking forward to trying them. Have a Happy Thanksgiving with your family.🦃🍗🥃🥃
Have a great day, Brian. The older I get the more these holidays are just another day. 👍😃☀️🌵
Thanks for stopping by hope you’re doing well
Wow you really surprised me..
I love this blend and we almost never like the same thing ! lol
Haha very cool

Nice tour. I see a “Beans engraved” golf tee pipe tool in the middle of the drawer.
Thank you very much my friend for the gifts really appreciated and kind
Like the shop tour! Mines in the basement with the woodpile. Old shopsmith get tucked away when needed. Happy thanksgiving!
Thanks for stopping by hope you had a great holiday
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a tin give you a fight like that tin just did lol. Happy late Thanksgiving, Beans!
Haha yeah I had a couple fight with me before but I always win 😎🔥

@carlkessler303 I agree with you completely on all the blends mentioned.
I'd say we have simular preferences.
Your exactly right C&D stuff is pretty tasty but usually always needs resting time for sure
You got a great shop. I hope you had a very wonderful Thanksgiving!
Thanks buddy hope you had a great one as well
That little pipe reminds me of my Dagner poker, if the bowl kicked the bucket and I put a country gentleman bowl on the shank.
Happy Thanksgiving man, sweet smokes

That toolbox looks perfect back there bro! Happy Thanksgiving Doran Family!
Happy Thanksgiving Cole I bet you had a nice pour

Should’ve seen the smile on my face when you opened the pipe drawer 😅
Haha nice 😎🔥
Very nice tobacco, one of my favourite HU. I expected the Kentucky to be more prominent, but nevertheless great smoke! 👊
Thanks my friend for stopping by the HU and Hogarth are a step above in my opinion

Happy Thanksgiving! Not a single bent pipe in that pipe drawer? Now that I think about it, I don’t think I have seen you smoke a bent…
I have a couple in the house but there not my favorite shapes for sure
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours Brian
Wishing you a big Happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving
To you and your family, Brian.

I recently purchased the HU Indaba & Makhuwa from Smokingpipes. The Indaba is excellent, but does require some drying time.
Yeah I dried my tin out over night it’s definitely a nice blend
Enjoy your day! 🎉
