The Virginias are fairly tart and tangy citrus sweet with a little tangy dark fruit, along with a bit of grass, earth, and a little floral wood and spice. The very mild floral note does weaken a little as you go along. The Virginias are the star component. The raisins, figs, plums and spice from the perique are supporting players, though there is a slight inconsistency regarding their presence. You’ll always notice the perique, but there are times when its strength level will vary. At its least, it’s a background player, and at its peak, a very complementary addition. Most of the time, it leans toward the latter. The nicotine is in the center of the mild to medium threshold. The strength is a couple of steps past that mark. The taste is a slot past the strength level, but doesn't reach the medium level. It won’t bite or get harsh. Burns at a moderate pace, cool clean and very smooth from start to finish. Requires few relights, and easily burns to ash with little moisture in the bowl. Has a short lived, sweetly pleasant after taste and room note. An all day smoke for those looking for a mild to medium VaPer.

Aus dem Krater Nr. 2 Flake from HU Tobacco, such simple flavours. Just a mix of sweet and tangy, with a tiny bit of Perique (not enough to make things interesting). This blend has some good parts and some not-so-good parts (for me, the latter weighs heavily). If you're not careful, things can go south pretty fast. It tends to get hot. Unfortunately, I got a mild tongue bite on my first try, and my pace was not fast. You've got to puff this one like you're savouring something fancy (though there's nothing fancy there to savour). Slow and steady, that's the way. Then you get these nice raisin flavours pop up, adding a little extra goodness. Anyways, here's the question; is it worth all the effort? Well... It has its moments, but lots of other options exist that might be more your speed. I'm not convinced it's worth all the hassle. If you're up for a challenge, give it a shot. Surprisingly, I've got better results when it's dry.

Another HU flake offering , this one being rather milder that some of the others . One needs to smoke a little slower to allow the virginia flavor to come through . The perique is sort of a phantom presence though it can be noticed at times. I have problems calling this as a VaPer. Can bite if smoked too fast but otherwise a nice burn , easy to get to some virginia sweetness . Although this is a respectable virginia I think that HU does much better in some of it's other flake blends blends . Not designed to knock your sox off but surly good enough to pass time through the day .
