A similar offering to Virginia No. 1, with less flavoring and maybe a slightly less delicate taste. Nice average Virginia, quite fruity, grassy, sweet/sour. A bit dirty at times.
Good careless smoke, with nice burning qualities, slightly bitey.

Nice flavour in the pouch, with some honey reminiscences. A bit disappointing in the pipe. Yes, an easy smoke but nothing much to say about it. I would say it is a good start for beginners wishing to try something else than the most popular blends beginners seem to try first (I remember what I tried years and years ago!).

For a Virginia blend This one is pretty good. A better choice then Symphony that I use to smoke years ago. There is a hint of vanilla somewhere throughout this blends. Hard to pack and keep lit. Definetly one of the better tinned Virginas.
