The dark fruity, earthy red Virginia and lightly grassy, citrusy gold Virginia are the most obvious components. The nutty, molasses sweet burley also has a minor earth note in support. The sugary black cavendish seems to have a touch of vanilla in the background. The vanilla and mild spice toppings are rich, and take the lead over the light cocoa. The toppings do sublimate the tobaccos to a fair extent. The nic-hit is mild. No chance of bite or harshness. Burns at a moderate pace, cool and clean with a very smooth, consistent flavor from top to bottom. Leaves little moisture in the bowl, and requires an average number of relights. Has a pleasantly sweet and mildly spicy after taste and room note. Can easily be an all day smoke.

Sutliff Tobacco Co. - Vanilla D-40.

It must have been four months since I popped this into my cellar and seeing as it's still rather moist I assume it must have been soaking on the day it arrived! A lot of ribbon cut blends are more delicate in build than this, the ribbons here are quite coarse. The pouch has a definite aromatic aroma.

The golden Cavendish, Burley, and Virginia take responsibility for a higher proportion of the flavour. Those, and the vanilla. The black Cavendish has been added with an extremely cautious hand. Cautious? To the point where my pouch contained absolutely zero black pieces! The topping has been added in a medium quantity, thusly, making it a definite aromatic, but not a ludicrously false one!

Nicotine: mild. Room-note: pleasant.

D-40? Well, my favourite flavour for an aromatic's vanilla, so I enjoy this. Albeit, in a market that's swamped with this kind of aromatic there are better to be had. So, three stars, not four:

Recommended.
