This is a review of a late 60s sample of the blend. This blend is very mild yet satisfying. The burley gives it the typical nuttiness we come to expect from a larus and Brothers tobacco, and the Virginias add a bit of hay like sweetness. What shocked me was the deertongue aroma and taste, having no information on the blend online this was a blind endeavor. I dissected the blend and found the half and half of Virginia to burley, with a pinch of deer tongue added.
