This tobacco comes very dry from the pouch, as one would expect from a baccy with no additives (except from water). This quality is the only one to remark from this blend: a flat, monotone Virginia with no taste whatsoever. The funny thing is that tongue bite is quite noticeable (probably due to overpuffing to compensate the lack of taste).
Conclusion: either this tobacco is way too bad or additives are great.
Update: after rehydrating there's a significant improvement. Still monotone, but gained some taste.

Tried a pouch of this one. Would you like to get back to any one? Buy him this blend. It's supposed to be a straight Va and I expected to taste a decent VA, or something similar to Planta's Va's that I've tried. Bad luck. Extremely dry tobacco, it immediately attacked my tongue. There was no taste of Va whatsoever, not even of tobacco; very "chemical", absolutely indifferent, too fake. Hated it.
