Nutty and creamy with a pleasant vanilla and honey taste The toppings tone down to tobaccos to a moderate extent. The Virginia is a little grassy and sweet. The burley is nutty, lightly earthy with a drop of molasses, and competes with the Virginia for attention. The sugary black cavendish is a supporting player. The nic-hit is mild. The moisture content is slight, so you may prefer to hydrate it a mite. Burns well with mostly consistent flavor, but may get harsh and nip at your tongue if you puff like a steam engine. Leaves a little dampness in the bowl. Requires an average number of relights. Has a pleasant after taste and room note. An all day smoke.

Savinelli - Cavendish.
The aroma from this one whilst unlit is really nice, you get a good Cavendish hit supplemented by a wonderful sweet hint from the honey, albeit in the aroma I cant particularly discern any vanilla. The mixture is more than pleasant on the eye, it is mostly black in colour with about 25% of the blend being lighter brown. To be a little less positive it does feel a touch too moist and could use a hint of airing time.
The smoke: it has a pleasing sweetness to it, half of which is a true Cavendish sweetness and the other half comes from the additives. The added flavours in it are at a great balance with each other and unlike the unlit aroma you can detect the vanilla in the smoke, and the Honey remains a natural honey flavour, not some gloopy/sugary sweetness, plus if you retro-hale it the honey becomes even more noticeable. The smoke is of a supreme quality in its build, more towards the thick end of the scale , which I do find appealing and the nicotine amount is superb, think Peterson Luxury Blend level. Room note is also similar to Luxury Blend in the fact that the smell is sweet but not at all strong or harsh. This is a very relaxing tobacco that would make a great end to a busy day prior to bed!
Three stars.

Back to pipe smoking after a decade of break so my palate may not be at its full operational capacity but I find this rather pleasant and muted in comparison to some other. Nice aroma, doesn't overpower tobacco taste. Burns fast, consistent throughout the bowl and minimal bite.

This stays in my rotation as one of my summer blends. In Sept. I begin to take my last puffs of the summer blends. Many of my friends put down the pipe in the summer and some cigarettes. I stick with the pipe because of my rotation. This is a soft and sweet tobacco of old. The tin opens with a very sweet smell. It falls ever so sweet into the pipe. First light is fast and smokey. You can taste the sweetness from start to finish. Will note that at the end of the bowl if you let it go out and then tr y to relight it will taste bitter. In all this is a solid smoke that I use two tins a week all summer long
