Interesting, somewhat sour/sweet, tin note.
Very light flavour.
Not much nicotine.
Burned OK, Smelled OK.
Not a lot more to say about it. Left my throat feeling a little rough. Odd, for such a mild tobacco...

Sigh! I bought a tin of this a year or so ago, because I recalled smoking it some years before and really enjoying it. What a disappointment; it manages to combine blandness with fearsome tongue-burn. I had to add about half a ton of pure Latakia just to give it some flavour and slow it's burn down.
Maybe it's just rose-tinted spectacles, but I really do remember liking this one in the past. Has the blend changed?
Avoid it, and try a decent aromatic. Or anything at all!

Awful. This is truly an awful sickly artificial tasting blend

i am not a great fan of aromatics but i do like to keep a couple in fo a change i have just opened a tin & i really have enjoyed it a nice change from full flavours i think this will be my morning smoke as i am gradualy easing off ciggerates and finding a pipe more satisfying i think i have found the alternative to a ciggy for the early smoke & dog walk

This is a wonderfully cool tobacco that though mild in all respects can still be surprisingly satisfying. As I find with most aromatics there is a slight medicinal smell in the tin. It packs well and lights with ease and maintains a good burn throughout.
The smoke is well balanced with a light sweetness that is in keeping. Very smooth and a good choose for earlier in the day.
This tobacco also works well if a little cigar leaf is added for later in the day smokes.
