| This tobacco has a very pleasant bag smell, taste, and room note. I'm not sure how to explain it... for some reason it reminds me of a classic/expensive cigar smell, with a touch of vanilla. The smell lingers in the room you smoked it in, which is a good thing with this blend.
I'm a very occasional pipe-smoker, so I'm not acclimated to nicotine by any means (nor do I wish to be). Of the seven tobaccos I've tried to date, this is certainly the strongest in terms of a nicotine buzz (stronger than Dunhill 965). After smoking it I feel quite nauseous, and it throws off my balance significantly. Must be a strong blend or something, whether they aimed for that or not. For this reason it isn't my personal favorite, but if you enjoy strong tobaccos - definitely worth a shot.
