The mildly brown sugary black cavendish is the lead component. The grassy, tart and tangy citrusy bright Virginia also sports a hint of honey as supporting player. The vanilla topping has a little richness, and while it does sublimate the tobaccos to fair extent, it doesn’t quite bury them. The strength is a step or so past the mild mark, while the taste is a hair past that. The nic-hit is extremely mild. Won’t bite or get harsh. Burns cool and clean at a moderate pace with a very consistent, mellow flavor from start to finish. Leaves little moisture in the bowl, and requires an average number of relights. Has a very pleasant, slightly lingering after taste and room note. An easy going all day smoke.

Seattle Pipe Club - Columbia River.
Best thing about Lockdown? Plenty of smoking time! So, have been dipping into a few different blends from my stash.
I opened this 'blind', not knowing if it's English, VaPer, Va, Aromatic, etc., but the imminent aroma attested this as an aromatic; sweet. The mixture includes coarser black pieces than brown, and there's much more brown than black. The moisture suits me, for anybody who reads my opinions, as it's a little damp.
The smoke has a more buoyant, lighter flavour for the first quarter. As the bowl progresses the vanilla develops a more caramel-sweet character; becoming somewhat 'sticky'. I don't find the tobaccos to be cartelized by the black Cavendish, this gives a little flavour but is overshadowed by the added vanilla. To my palate the bright Virginia's verdant quality steals first place. I get a mid-temperature smoke but it can bite, a little!
Nicotine: medium at a push. Room-note: nice.
Columbia River? Even though it can deal a little peck to the tongue it still deserves three stars:
Recommended.
