Galway Bay is another in the economical Clan Shaw line of aromatic tobaccos. It is a chopped brown ribbon of unusually uniform cut so heavily cased that I could smell the blend through the packing it arrived in. Once lit, it's a very mild tobacco with a sweet taste that fades quickly. By mid-bowl, most of the casing is gone and the smoke has turned slightly bitter. I suspect the "burley curse," but the package says the blend is built with Virginias. Another tobacco mystery. As with many aromatics, what taste this blend had is gone by the end of the bowl. On the plus side, Galway Bay burns to a fine grey ash and won't gunk up your bowl. This blend is nothing to get excited about, but for an aromatic, it's harmless, and at $20.00 the pound, cheap enough to smoke endlessly if you like it.
