I actually don't like the flavor of this blend. It is a little too "busy" for my tastes. It is well behaved and smokes well to the finish. I think it most likely smells pretty good to bystanders. A good change of pace for the jaded smoker. Relatively unique.

Black Cordial is a very interesting blend. mostly dark, with ribbons of Virginia running through it.
I detect what could be a liquer topping, but it doesn't overpower the tobacco flavor. It is sweet and yet has a 'dry wine' quality to it.
Others in the room haven given high compliments on the aroma. Very smooth, no bite.
Be watchful on the moisture content. It wants to be a bit on the dry side to burn well, get too dry and the flavor disappears. Just a touch wet and you'll never keep it lit.
Not my every day smoke, but thoroughly enjoyable when I do select it. Very relaxing.
