VegasSmokes Nevada '64
(3.00)
Notes: This aromatic mixture is rich, buttery, has a fantastic room aroma, subtly sweet and full of real tobacco flavor. It is also one of the most complex aromatic tobaccos you'll ever taste. I can't tell you exactly what is in it. I have my secrets. Only 3 people in the world know. I can say that there are 11 different tobaccos in Nevada '64. This stuff belongs in a tin, but do you really want to pay 9 bucks for it? Why the name you ask? Simple. I finished the blend on Nevada Day when we became a state in 1864.

Nevada64 is a dark blend. It packs well and has a nice bag aroma. Lights easily and burns well.
The flavor is chocolate, with a hint of creaminess. Unfortunately, there is some kind of an 'edge' in there that detracts from what could be a very good blend.
It tastes similar to Brown's Extra, but is inferior to it. Maybe with age it will improve. If so, I will update my review.
Don't get me wrong - this isn't bad tobacco, it's just that this same blender has better offerings.
UPDATE: I feel obligated to update this review. My opinions of the tobacco remain unchanged, but there seems to be some problem with the retailer. This blend is only available at vegassmokes.com People on message boards have been complaining of orders unfilled after long periods of time, and no answer to emails or phone calls. I experienced these problems as well, but it seems to be getting worse.
Also note - the tobacco did not improve with a few months aging. I had high hopes, but it was just not meant to be.
