Cult - Anonymous.
There's a few chunkier ribbons but the most of it's virtually a shag cut. The hydration's smack on, and the tin-note's quite sweet.
The vanilla's notable, albeit, not miles ahead of the honey from the Virginia Cavendish. Apart from the honey the tobacco gives a sharp, fresh, crisp Virginia flavour: citrus and grass, not plums and dough. Anon' burns well, being fairly cool and independent. My only real quibble is with tongue bite, so I sip it slowly.
Nicotine: mild. Room-note: pleasant.
Cult Anonymous? A good smoke but not spectacular. Two stars:
Somewhat recommended.

Anonymous lives up to the Cult name. A straight Virginia blend that is a pleasure to smoke. Probably the best straight Virginia I have smoked to date. No harshness and a consistent and mildly complex taste. and I didn't really taste the casing on the tobacco, but this has an outstanding room note. The moisture level was right for smoking out of the can and the tobacco burned well to the bottom of the bowl.

Took an aggressive true light to get the bowl rolling but was surprised by the rich white smoke it produced. The initial notes was of honey and a light nuttiness which I relate to macadamia. Room note is pleasant with warm vanilla in the forefront. Didn't get the taste of vanilla until after a relight, but when it appeared it was creamy like the aftertaste of a vanilla latte. I really appreciate the topping being mild here as you can still occasionally taste some of the citrus of the Virginia and some almost pine like acidity. A balanced aro which doesn't leave a syrupy artificial aftertaste. Would recommend as a great upgrade from your typical vanilla aromatic experience. 3.5 stars

I just finished a tin of this, and I have to say that it is a fair offering from the folks over at Cult. Its a very simple blend, with very little in the way of added flavoring or casing. You really have to sip this slow and cool to get even the barest hint of the flavoring. When you do you're gifted with a gentle hint of honey and vanilla. If you're looking for a light virginia blend you can smoke all day, then this is for you. I personally wasn't wowed by this one and I don't think I'll be purchasing any tins of it in the future.
If there is one thing that stood out to me about the tin I bought it is that it was lousy with stems! I've never had a tin with so many stems in it. Every time I packed a bowl of this I would inevitably chuck two or three stems into the ashtray.
