I must disagree with my predecessors' comments in their reviews, for I find this a very pleasing tobacco indeed.
This is quite a heady mix and, as such, is best appreciated smoked slowly in a smallish (group 3 perhaps?) bowl. Packed with a moderately firm touch, it takes light easily and settles down to producing copious billows of smooth, rich and very flavourful smoke. It can bite a little and even make the head spin if puffed too quickly and greedily, so it is best to settle back in a deep armchair and relax into a surprisingly long, pleasureable and satisfying smoke.
My only regret is that it is, as it says on the tin, a "Limited Edition".
