I found that this is a good aromatic blend. Looking at it I see ribbon cut virginia. Don't see any black or gold cavendish at all.
The absence of the usual cavendish tobaccos means that while early on you taste and smell the vanilla that this is cased with, by about mid-bowl you start tasting the virginia, which makes this an all around pleasant smoke. A nice dry aromatic, not tacky to the touch when you take it out.
I do find that it is difficult to keep lit toward the bottom of the bowl, even when tamping and dumping ash. It does burn down to 3/4ths of the bowl or more, and more patient smokers may find they get a better performance out of it.
The fact that it is a virginia aromatic helps me like it more as I generally don't like aromatics. The light casing helps as well, because it is nice and dry straight from the pouch.

This is a mild fruit and vanilla mix, certainly not as strong as Blue Note, but along similar lines. If you like this, I'd suggest you try McClelland 5115 Old World Classic, which is a Virginia w/ fruit mix that IMHO has better tobacco flavor.
