Garbage. Although this tobacco does have a hint of flavour it burns very poorly and when it does burn it tastes bitter and unenjoyable. It is a real burden to smoke and really not worth the effort.

What a disappointment. After reading the manufactures spiel on this blend I just had to try it. It’s only available in 100g tins and at £29 a pop it was a risk. Money down the drain. Firstly it burns hot! Dam hot! Had to keep putting my pipe down to let it cool. Secondly it bites like a hungry Scottish Midge on a summers day. Strange tin note, quality looking cube cut baccy though. However the only taste I can detect is some chemicals. No Mango, Vanilla rum or even tobacco. Minging! Avoid like the plague or at least try before you buy. You can have this tin from me!!!!

I bought a tin of this tobacco because I was attracted to its cube cut. The cold smell is very rich, with a predominance of the mango aroma. However, when you start smoking it, those smells are lost, remaining in a typical aromatic, very fragrant in the tin but bland in the pipe. Also, the tin is 100 grams and I can't wait to finish it. I will not repeat.
