On my aromatic phases, this is one of my all time favorites. It is in deed heavy cased, but of the highest category. The room note is sweet and appealing.
Bright tobaccos give a citric pouch aroma, and the honey is also notable. I have not perceived neither plum nor straight orange, but probably they contribute to a mild tangy bouquet.
I believe this was made in the same factory as AC & Petersen, as it is very similar to their Highland blend. Another blend that reminds me of Catello (but in a somehow not so subtle version) is MacBaren Aroatic Choice. If you are into aromatics and can get your hands in a pouch of Castello, do yourself a favor and try it.
