The flue cured Virginia is very grassy and citrusy, and there a smattering of dark fruit sweet red Va., too. The burley is nutty with a little earth and molasses in a supporting role. Black cavendish is not mentioned in the description, but I see some of it in the mix, and it accounts for a little vanilla. The toppings are hard to define, but I notice a little mango, orange, and coconut, though I think other sweet flavors may be present. I detect an occasionally berry note, too. There’s also very light spice which I attribute to the toppings. The medium strength floral quality to the taste reminds me of clove. The toppings tone down the tobaccos, but you will obverse them a little. The nic-hit is mild, just barely. A little moist out of the tin, I saw no need to dry it. Burns a little slow if not dried with a very smooth, creamy and consistent taste. The toppings do not weaken and there are no dull or harsh spots. Won’t bite. Leaves a little moisture in the bowl, but no dottle. Has a pleasantly lingering after taste and very sweet, mildly floral room note. Not an all day smoke.

My tin has "Made in Germany" stickered on it. Opening the tin, it smells a bit like a rum fruit cake. The scent is pleasant, but nothing really distinctive. The tobacco was ribbony, fairly dry and packed in tight.

It lit up with a single match and the initial taste and aroma was pleasing.

My wife isn't at home to ask her opinion of the room note, but if I sit back and try to smell it, it seems to be nice. Like a flavoured smoke, rather than just smoke.

I puff pretty often, so my bowl is getting hot.

I feel relaxed sitting in my chair smoking this and thinking about what to say in my review. There's a little harshness in the back of my throat though.

Halfway through the bowl, and the pleasant taste and aroma are still there. I have not had to relight yet.

Ok bowl is finished. Near the end I got a little tiny bit of unpleasant taste, which seems to be common for aromatics.

Overall it was a good smoke. I'm happy to have purchased this. Got a very slight vitamin N buzz. Wouldn't be my first choice, but I wouldn't ever say no to this blend.
