Cobblestone Kahlua

The brown sugary black cavendish is the lead component. The grassy, tart and tangy citrusy, lightly spicy, acidic Virginia barely edges over the earthy, nutty, woody burley as secondary players. The kahlua liqueur topping provides a fair amount of Arabica coffee with some rum and sugar. These aspects sublimate the tobaccos quite a bit. The strength is just short of the center of mild to medium. The taste is a slot short of the medium threshold. The nic-hit is a rung short of the strength level. There’s no chance of bite or harshness, though there are a few very small rough edges. The tobacco may need a light dry time, though I did not do that. Burns cool and clean at a slightly slow pace with a very consistent sugary, coffee, spicy rum, light tart and tangy fruit, lightly bitter, syrupy flavor that translates to the pleasant, short lived after taste, and room note. Leaves little moisture in the bowl. Requires a few more than an average number of relights. An all day smoke. Three stars.
