Despite the bad reputation that Borkum Riff blends have, I decided to buy a pouch of Scandinavian Mixture, and the truth is that I'm very happy with this tobacco.
Burley leaf is more abundant than the Virginia, so it looks and tastes. This blend has a very fragrant, nutty-chocolate taste, which in my opinion, is very delicate and well balanced. I don't think that this tobacco is very cased or flavored, as it feels very natural. The room not is very pleasant.
Ultimately, this tobacco feels very natural, but not rough; it's also delicate and somewhat aromatic, but not mannered.
