Solani 127: Green Label

Double fermented black cavendish combined with broad bright and ripe red Virginias produce a cool smoke. A touch of apple flavor is added. Nice mild blend.

The apple topping is very high when you crack the tin.the moisture level as it comes from the tin is proper though the tobacco cut is very unusual for a pipe tobacco and not helpfull at all for packing your bowl.the lighting needs effort and some relights are needed.while burning you only get apple taste with lots of sweet notes that doesn't feel natural.the virginia tastes are absent due to the full taste of cavendish.burns cool and slow.the tongue bites are frequent even if you go slow.burns to total ash and leaves no moisture at the end of the bowl.the nicotine level is low to medium but it's not an all day blend to me due to the tencity of the topping.
Age When Smoked:

Very nice looking tin with fancy shape; upon opening the tin the tobacco is in a gold pouch, the aroma was that of an apple orchard with very fresh tobacco. The cut(s) of the blend were ribbon Cavendish, and broad cuts of Virginias
Packing the pipe was very easy and to my surprize the tobacco took to a mitch and stayed lit. This tobacco can get a bowl very hot very fast and may even nip your tongue a little as this is a Virginia blend with an aromatic flvoring with ribbon cuts of Cavendish all blended together. I did notice once the tobacco started burning down there was a coolness about the smoke as a sweetness of the Fermented Apple Cavendish was very easily detected.
This tobacco is not for those who dislike an aromatic as this presents itself as a fruity aromatic.
I love a good aromatic, but this one is just too sweet for me

A friend of mine came over with a tin of this one day so I figured I might as well give it a shot. I had a bit of trouble packing this properly in one of my corn cobb pipes (which I keep around mostly for occasions like this) due to the odd cut. It's not really a ribbon... I'm not sure what you'd call this. The pieces are like cornflakes only about half to 1/3rd the size. Due to this it was a little hard to get it lit.
To me this seems like just another unremarkable aromatic that looks a little more fancy than average. Despite the claim of "natural sweetness" on the can, it seems that this has a fair amount of Flavoring. Supposedly its apple, though thats not quite what jumped out at me when I opened the can and took a sniff. I remember buying a small bag of some Lane bulk apple aromatic a couple of years ago that seemed more apple-like than this.
Oh well... I doubt I'll ever buy a can of this myself.

This has to be one of the worst cased tobaccos I have ever tried. It smelled bad in the tin and tased even worse. It was astringant, and so overwhelming that I couldn't even finish half of the bowl. I am seriously wondering if the pipe will have remnants of this tobacco forever. I can not say strongly enough that NO ONE should EVERY TRY THIS!

The cut on this quite unique and the tin aroma is that of a very heavily cased tobacco. The casing is so heavy and overwhelming that it reminds of cologne or parfume'. It was very astringant when smoking with a cloying aftertaste and no tobacco flavor at all. Yuck!
