An odd name for a blend considering there's more than the nutty, earthy, woody, molasses sweet, burley here. The Virginia is grassy with a few earth, wood and tart and tangy citrus notes in the background. The black cavendish is sugary sweet in a support role. A light vanilla topping very mildly sublimates the tobaccos. The strength is in the center of mild to medium, while the taste is just short of medium.The nic-hit is a couple of steps past the mild level. Burns a little warm, and fast puffing can potentially cause a little bite. Has a few small rough edges. Burns a little slow and wet, and the thickness of broken flake forces a fair number of relights. Leaves a bit of moisture in the bowl. Has a very consistent flavor as well as a lightly lingering, pleasant after taste and room note. Can be an all day smoke.

I'm not usually an aromatic smoker, but this was sent to be by a kind friend so I wanted to give it a shot. It smelled great in the pouch, as most aromatics do, but failed me on the palate. This was a basic burley blend in which the VAs were lost and the smoke was overpowered by the strong cherry/vanilla-ish topping. Good volume of smoke and a little bit of tongue bite. This was just too candy-like for me to enjoy regularly...but I will break it out if I want something sweet.

Not a great burley blend by any means. The Cavendish is the most predominant flavor with the Virginia adding a mild bite now and then. Vanilla flavoring is apparent bur applied sparingly. It's an ok smoke but nothing that makes me want to buy it again.
