Espresso Pipe Tobacco Anyone?

"Horst Lichter whose name this blend bears is a very German celebrity. Fortunately, as a pipe smoker, blender, and famous chef (not to mention owner of a killer mustache), he knows how to put a proper tobacco together."

I tried an Acid brand cigar (made by Drew Estates) that was "coffee-infused." Supposedly they place herbs, ground coffee or whatever else they are infusing the leaves with into the curing room with the tobacco while it cures. The cigar wasn't truly disgusting but it wasn't really enjoyable either.

Acid cigars are just nasty. Aside the aromatics they heavily sweeten the wrapper. The Java line is not too bad, it is a coop by Drew and Rocky Patel. I prefer my cigars to taste like cigars, have around 1300 in the humadore. I do have a couple pipes (made them in my wood shop). I like the Double Fantasy blend from 4noggins in the pipe. A blend of Black Cavendish and Burley that reminds one of a pleasant, mild cup of Mocha Java, and it is quite good.
