I really don't know enough about these tobaccos to write about them, so I won't.
However, I will say....
McConnell Code - Relax - This tobacco boasts of Apple, Grapefruit, and Benedictine. I am a fan of all three. I had one bowl and won't rate it, but say I got the fruitiness and the Benedictine as promised. The fruit was losing out to the Liqueur, which is why I can't review it. I don't know if that was a one-off effect or not. It's just an interesting tobacco to keep an eye on. I would compare this to some of the Larsons
C&D Nutty Irishman - Has some of the best aspects of Peterson with a little nougat. Flavor stayed. Have only smoked one bowl, so YMMV.
Sutliff State Fair v C&D Apples and Cream - The Sutliff had the apple and a tad candy/caramel all through, but that was smoked in the new/old Carey, as was Nutty Irishman. C&D was smoked a few days ago and lost some flavor going down. You got your apples and cream on top. Maybe with another pipe or session it will be different.
Going to make a recommendation to peterd-Buffalo Spirit . I feel good enough about the State Fair that if you are looking for a replacement to Middleton Apple, which is more burley, the State Fair does it. It's not all burley, but it held up as nicely.
No stars, My intention is to give people that may be interested enough umph to buy some... before they disappear. Full reviews may follow when the mist is in the gloamin', and all the clouds are holdin' still
