Ken Byron Ventures Yoshimi's Chok Lit Pie

The fermented matured bright Virginia provides a lot of tart and tangy citrus, tart, sour lemon, grass, bread, sugar, a little spice, and very light floralness. It is the lead component. The toasted burley offers a lot of nuts, earth, and wood as a supporting player. The chunky black cavendish has an important sugariness in the third position. The toppings include lightly bitter dark cocoa, chocolate pudding, marshmallow and cream. They fairly sublimate the tobaccos as they remind me chocolate meringue pie with a lightly burnt meringue. The strength is a couple of steps past the center of mild to medium. The nic-hit is a notch past the mild mark. The taste threshold is a rung past the strength level. Won’t bite or get harsh. Burns cool, clean, and a tad slow with a very consistent sweet, mildly creamy, slightly bitter rich flavor that extends to the lightly lingering, pleasant after taste. Has a very pleasant room note. Leaves little moisture in the bowl, and requires an average number of relights. An all day smoke.
