A rather mild Virginia, burley and cavendish blend with a subtle note of liqueur. Whilst very aromatic in the tin (with a smell analogous to a Christmas cake), Dr Pat isn't particularly aromatic when smoked. Rather, the tobacco has a neutral but pleasant woody flavour. I prefer Dr Pat pipe tobacco when smoked in a cigarette, as it has a greater complexity of flavour compared to most brands of shag available in Australia. Unlike many mixture pipe tobaccos with thick cuts of tobacco, Dr Pat comes in quite thin strands, making it possible to roll into a cigarette. Just don't roll too tightly! Dr Pat is very good for those new to pipe smoking, due to its ease of being a mixture tobacco and for its mildness in strength and flavour. Dr Pat is also good for experienced cigarette smokers looking to explore different flavours.
