W.O. Larsen Selected Blend No. 80 Mahogany Mixture
(2.71)
High grade Virginia tobaccos and black toasted cavendish are blended to perfection in this exquisite mixture. The smoothing touch of aged burley imparts a fresh, light sweet note that is beautifully enhanced when smoked in a medium-sized pipe. This mixture is perfected with the nuances of coffee and caramel.
Notes: Formerly known as Selected Blend No. 80 Light Aromatic, the name was changed to conform to EU laws.

Tends to dry out very fast, therefore it burns fast, and sipping (of which this tobacco would benefit for sure) is almost impossible. This makes the blend a little bit flat. Not really bad, just so-so.

This is a crowd-pleasing tobacco, which has a nice flavor. Unfortunately, that nice flavor is extremely mild, even weak. This leads to unconscious over-puffing, which leads to tongue-burn as the Virginia and the sweeteners get going.
This doesn't rise to my minimum flavor threshold, so I'm not willing to face the scorched-tongue elements. Might do well in a blend with a cooler, more flavorful tobacco.
