Edgworth wannabe, and reminds me why I don't like burley much.
Tin Aroma: Yep. Smells like tin.
Flavor: I think the flavor is in the witness protection program. I couldn't find any.
Room Note: Good comments after the dozen or so puffs I managed to struggle through.
Too many good tobaccos out there to waste time on this one.

I like aromatics because they are supposed to taste like something not tobacco flavored. I like non-aromatics for natural tasting tobacco. I like English blends for richness and depth.
This tobacco has none of the properties of any of the above.It is bland and sweet.It has no discernible flavor and just yields smoke.I was shocked this was a McClelland product-it tasted more llike an Altadis creation of syrup,heat,and air.I'll take a pass. not worth even rating.

Unremarkable in every sense. There just isnt' much character here. Bland loose broken burley cake with an insignificant casing. A tad bit of sweetness in the aroma but not much else. One could blend this with other ingredients that could work. Virginia is McClelland's game not burley at the moment. As suggested by the old term of opprobrium about burley "Navy Goods!"
