This is a very interesting "Danish Virginia" blend. The sweetness that is common to many Danish blends is evident in the tin, and also in the smoke. I do not believe that this is a topping. The room note has a sweet component to it too.
The flavor starts out quite mild, but builds in the first third to a medium Va flavor. At this point, the sweetness is more of a background thing, but it does remain throughout the smoke. The flavor stays with you throughout the smoke, and the bottom of the bowl is as tasty as the middle.
No sign of harshness or bitterness at the bottom, and the smoke stays nice and cool all the way. It left the bowl nice and dry as well.
A note to fans of DGT... Not this one. The flavor got a bit unpleasant with a three hour DGT.
I don't think I will actively search for more of this one, but if I run across any, I won't hesitate to pick it up.
