Vauen Bavarian Blend No. 3

A well-balanced mixture of wholehearted black cavendish and naturally sweet Virginia. Fortified with the aromatic variety of hops, malt and vanilla, it exudes an extremely pleasant fragrance.

With this one.. I think they truly hit the mark of a "beer" tobacco. When smelling the tin you get the notes of malt/hops and a little vanilla. It's mainly black cavendish, which has me remove 1 star because I feel it needs more brown and tan in the mix. As it is, it's a fairly stout smoke which actually leaves you with the mouth feel of beer. It has a "foamy" character to it and you can taste the hops on your palette. It can smoke a little hot and bite if you aren't careful.. which in my opinion is caused by too much Cavendish. Overall it's a good blend but I probably won't buy it again as I'm not the biggest fan of Cavendish based blends. Room note is decent to good as with most Vauen blends.

Warm pleasant smell in tin with a bit of vanilla and malt. Loose cut looks nice with Cavendish dominant overall dark look with golden brown sparkles in it. Packs nicely and immediately takes flame. Sweet malt and vanilla are clearly there but maybe an almost unnoticeable taste of hops that I wouldn't had tasted if it wasn't in the description. 🙂 Cavendish and Virginia of good quality are well combined with sweet and harsh beer-like flavors. I don't drink much beer but I can imagine them both together well; also coffee or espresso. Sweetness in foreground, this is a mild and nice aromatic that isn't overdosed. Burns nice till end with no tongue bite and doesn't loose it's tastes.
