Vauen Tradition No 2

Tin note of sharp hay and spices. Tobacco is mixed cut of coins, broken flake, ribbon and loose rough cut. The reddish orange tobacco is on the dry side, no drying needed. Some larger pieces may need to be rubbed out. Burns fast with few relights. The strength is medium and nic is mild to medium. No flavoring detected. Taste is medium and fairly consistent, with notes of wood, grassy, fermented vegetation, toast, dry, sour stewed fruit, bread, spice, lemon zest, very spicy, floral, slightly bitter, tart, a tangy citrus background note, and a peppery retro. Virginia is leading with Kentucky and Perique supporting. Room note is tolerable, and aftertaste is great.
