As someone who smokes 1 to 2 bowls a week my review will be useful for someone who doesn't smoke regularly and wants an amazing experience every time he/she lights a bowl. This tobacco is 100% pure virginia. Upon first light, the hay and sweetness become prominent and as you get down the bowl you taste almost bready and earthy notes. But this tobacco, as every wolfway blend, is very one dimensional. Cellaring for at least 6 months is mandatory because if you taste it fresh, well, it tastes almost nothing. It's a good, every day virginia but nothing special. It reminds me of George Karellias cigarettes for those who live in Greece, or for our international friends, it is somewhat close to a very nice cigarette. I will mix it with izmir and leave it for a year or two to see the results.

Three stars for the pure Virginia from Wolfway. I'd rate it as somewhat recommended for my personal tastes, but that'd be not doing justice to the producers, as this is a quality product as all other Wolfway products I've tried.
My issue is I am not refined enough to appreciate a straight Virginia unless the leaf has been tortured a bit with steam, pressure, and cutting into flakes.
The smell of the pouch is that of hay, and it looks like hay too: golden and bright yellow ribbons.
I had a couple of bowls of this as it came, which were too light for my taste, the predominant flavour was hay and some citrus. I didn't get any spice or much sweetness from it, and no nicotine hit either.
When however I mixed it with Wolfway's Burley, the result far surpassed the sum of its parts, it gained the strength and depth of flavour I was looking for, and also allowed the Virginia sweetness to come through (look at my review of the Wolfway Burley for the other side of the story).
2 stars for my personal tastes as I wouldn't really smoke it on its own, but 3 as a product in its merits. Edit: to 2 stars
