| Hmmm.. This is an old blend, discontinued in the 80'ties. I bought a tin from my local tobacconist who knows my hobby: Vintage tobacco. So he dug some old tin out from his basement. (nice guy!!) I thought; this may be good and interesting, but Alas, this is a fast burning, no nicotine VA/Burley-blend from the Netherlands, very similar to the McCormick blends; but the topping is so weird that I actually like it...´raspberry, toffee and dust. And make that "dust" in a positive way, I have a hard time explaining it..
If this blend wasn't so low in nicotine level I'd smoke it often. If you ever get a hold of a tin, try it because of the weird topping.. Good or bad, well i don't know, but unusual as in Black & Gold, and Gold Block, but not comparable in any way.........
