Abenaki Tobacco Co. Sea Breeze

I received some of this as a gift. I wasn't expecting much as I'd been moving away from aromatics. But this is a pleasant surprise. Unlike so many aros, the casing seems light and it actually complements the tobacco, which is a very mild, sweet Virginia. I smoked this in a cob, pretty fast, and got very little bite, which was another pleasant surprise. Also, it stayed lit pretty well.

I'll gladly have a bowl of this every so often, especially in mixed company as the room note is really appealing.

This is very light, mild Cavendish blend. It packs well and stays lit. I did not find this to be remarkable in any way; nor was it unpleasant. This is just a good, quality smoke, but somewhat bland, to my taste. Burns cool, with a nondescript aroma. I would recommend this as a possible starter blend for beginners. It represents a nice, pleasant smoking experience, without a lot of bells and whistles. However, I tend toward the more flavorful aromatics, with a little more body.

Got this blend along with 5 others from Abernaki. To me, the name of this blend comes through in the pouch aroma.Theres something in there that reminds me of the ocean? Very nice aroma, with the moisture content good. Upon lighting this one up i was happy to see that the pouch aroma transferred over to the smoke, which I like, and nice and smokey and fragrant. Overall I really enjoyed this blend, it smoked cool and with no bite from start to finish. Very pleasant,and relaxing. The only down side was that it "Gurgled" a little twords the bottom of the bowl, but no big deal. I give this one 3 and 1/2 stars.
