G. L. Pease Montgomery
(3.18)
Virginias, Virginias, Virginias! Several grades of wonderful flue-cured leaf, from soft yellow to deep red, are combined with just a touch of dark-fired Kentucky for a little added richness. A special process, recovered from ancient archives, provides the finishing touch to this wonderful blend. Naturally sweet, and possessing subtle complexity, Montgomery presents delightful new dimensions for the lover of sophisticated Virginia blends.
Notes: Montgomery was released in March, 2005.

After a long night in the saloon I tried this blend out for the first time by seeing how much abuse it could take. I smoked it "way too hot" until I could barely grasp the bowl, but this one refused to disapoint. It smoked cool, with an even ash, right down to the end, in spite of my "abuse." Pleasant with a natural flavor right down to the bottom of the bowl, without too much casing; recommended.

Unlike Telegraph Hill, at least this one has some actual VA flavor. Quality VA's that are properly aged have nary a nip or bite and while this one has supurb depth when sipped very, very slowly, that is due to the richness the dark fired Kentucky adds not the VA's. While the fog city series has dissapointed me thus far, If you don't mind a high maintenance "sophisticated" Virginia blend, you might indeed like this one a lot.
