Stanwell Classic
(2.25)
An exquisite mixture blended from mature Virginia, and mellow black cavendish, we have added a gently pressed and fermented cut plug made from Virginia and burley. The mixture is perfected with a touch of sweet plum aroma, which creates a unique smoking experience for the most demanding pipe smoker.

I really wanted to like this tobacco. Maybe because the description on this site says it's plum, coffee and brandy flavored. In any case, I never succeeded in liking it. I only tasted the plum and it turns out I don't like plum flavored tobacco.
If plum is your thing, then I would somewhat recommend it. It never tasted chemical, which is a plus in aromatics. On the other hand it also didn't really taste like tobacco, or inasmuch as it did, the tobacco taste was too heavy and sweet. That's the reason I give it 1 star, although I guess it deserves 1,5.
It's a tobacco that combines surprisingly well with pure latakia. It's almost half worth the effort.

Upon opening the pouch the smell is very strong: fruits and a little honey, very sweet indeed. The cut is mixed, with the ribbons from Virginia and Cavendish and the broken flake pieces from the VA-B cut plug. The packing is a little tricky in a small pipe, the moisture is perfect so the lighting is easy. At the match the top flavour is overwhelming, you really can't detect anything else; as expected, the first puffs are painful for your tongue. Then the burning proceeds easily, cool and dry and that's a good surprise, having considered the top dressing amount. Not my cup of tea but a good choice for danish aromatics lovers.
