Vauen No. 09 Himalaya Blend
(3.00)
A gentle, slightly fruity blend with a high proportion of velvety black cavendish and sweet golden Virginia tobacco. The assortment of various cuts of tobacco assures a cool consistent smoke. The aroma of fine citrus notes, delicious, high-aromatic ripe cherries and Goji berries exudes an extremely pleasant fragrance.

The most heaviest aromatic tobacco !!! No chance to feel tobacco taste, only cherry and berry jam with vanilla sauce on top. But surprisingly tobacco burns cool without tongue bite. People around is crazy of wonderful room note. I am not a fan of aromatic tobacco, but this one recommending to try for everybody. Quality !!!

I got a sample as a gift when ordering other tobaccos, and must admit I didn't expect much because of my previous experiences with vauen tobaccos (auenland series). However, I loaded one of my briars with the sample while watching "The edge"(1995, with Antony Hopkins..good movie), and for my sorprise, it was an ecxellent smoking experience. Unlike other reviewers (youtube), I found the flavours didn't taste artificial, and they were well balanced with the virginias. The black cavendish provided a decent volume of smoke, which had a medium body, and allowed to puff some rings. No tongue bites nor relighting, regular two matches smoke. I'm ordering a tin because it can be the beggining of a beautiful friendship.
