Milan Tobacconists Jefferson Street
(3.18)
Named after the street our shop has been on for over 100 years, Jefferson Street is a medium strength sliced burley blend with a smattering of Turkish and cavendish tobaccos. This blend offers a rich, nutty flavor with a slight hint of rum raisin and a moderately sweet finish. Nice room aroma.

On a whim, I order some of this tobacco as a crap shoot. I was pleasantly suprised. A solid American burley blend accented with turkish, smooth cavendish, and (virginias?).
Burley is rough cut while there is ribbon and shag cut present from the other blends.
Packing: The batch I got is still new and is moist and needs some drying time but note, very little to no bite even in the hydrated stage. The bag aroma is very pleasant and it is like rum and dates - rum raisin is a good description.
First light and 1st 1/4: semi sweet - this aromatic is NOT the goopy sweet stuff you find at most malls. This is semi sweet with a quality blend with wonderful bold burley flavor and aroma. The initial room note is SO good. hard to describe... none like I have tried before.
Mid bowl: the sweet topping and/or casing starts to relax and through the nose you recognize the turkish peaking through. Nutty, nutty, nutty and sweet burlies otherwise.
Last of bowl: The mouthful of burlies is like your eating something baked. 3/4's of flavorful burley with turkish and (virgina?) tanginess. some ashiness taste but not bad, the casing is gone somewhat and all left is the great nutty burly flavor. The room note still has a hint of the flavoring and works well with the burly. The nicotine is stronger the last half of the bowl no goopiness, solid gray ash, wonderful quality smoke.
UPDATE 2/28/07 Bringing down to 2 stars just for the PG level I have to dry out and that ticks me off

Bag note smells of tobacco with a slight sweet rum note. Perfect moisture, lots of ribbons, packs and stays like very nicely. A well behaved tobacco.
The flavor is burley. Nutty, toasty, coco, earthy burley. It almost tastes so nutty I thought this had a hazelnut topping. Slightly sweet but not a sweet goopy type of tobacco. The rum is a nice touch but still leaves lots of tobacco flavor. Burned cool and well. Left a burley nutty aftertaste that did linger. Probably a three star blend however I’m not a fan of burley.
