Watch City Cigar Simply VOriental
(3.80)
Fragrant, herbal Macedonian prilep tobacco spices a bed of red, bright and stoved Virginia tobaccos. The result is a medium to medium full strength smoke and complex flavor with a hint of that Oriental "funk". A limited edition blend to be released yearly at Thanksgiving.
Notes: From blender Ernie Q.: Please note that the description reads a "hint of that Oriental 'funk'." This is NOT an Oriental bomb! The delicate flavored prilep is used to accent the other tobaccos, and not overpower them. If you are looking for an Oriental bomb, this isn't it!

Let me begin by saying that I am not normally one who gravitates toward Oriental tobacco. With that said the description kind of intrigued me so I ordered 4 oz just to try. I'm glad that I did.
The Virginia's definitely seem to predominate, there is a slight note of brightness, I sort of citrus presence that ephemerally flirts in the background. What seems to dominate is notes of roasted wheat, with a slight sweetness.
I do not know if I will get more of this, but I'm certainly glad that I got what I got to try. It made me rethink my attitude toward things with Oriental tobacco.
