Rattray Summer Edition 2015
(2.00)
Rattray's Summer Edition 2015 is a blend of Virginias and black cavendish with a warm breeze of fresh raspberries and peach cream flavour. A perfect accompaniment to any summer's day! The mix of light to medium brown Virginias against a background of dark cavendish gives the impression of a beautiful sunset abreast a backdrop of wispy clouds and a horizon of sky and sea, full of colour and invokes a sense of tranquillity. The aroma coming from the tin is sweet, like a conserve. A picnic blanket laid with cake, jam, buns and fruits upon a grassy hillock scattered with loose hay, overlooking the coast. This is summer at its best!
The ribbon cut is a pleasure to pack into a pipe and being of optimum humidity, lights with ease. The flavours are immediately released; raspberry, peach and the base tobaccos work fantastically well together. It burns evenly and thoroughly, leaving a fine ash.
If the weather turns or winter is setting in, take a pinch of this Summer Edition in your pipe to revive those memories of better conditions.

This is by far the best aromatic blend i smoked so far! Easy to fill, light and smoke with no tongue bite at all. Burns smooth right to the end. The taste? Just delicious! In the beginning there´s lots of peach, midbowl it turns to a nice creamy sweetness and in the end it turns to a nutty flavour. This blend has everything i expect for a truly interesting mixture! Unfortunately it isn´t available anymore so i am looking forward to next summer and what rattray has to offer then!!!
