The Virginias are citrusy with plenty of dark stewed fruitiness, a little grass and a bit of deep earthiness. There's a floral essence that reminds me of Lakeland, but it may be coming either naturally through the Virginias or from the fact the tobaccos absorb a little Lakeland by being in the same factory where the scented blends are. Either way or both, it diminishes some after the half way point, and remains to compete with the Virginias for attention. Burns cool and clean, slow and requires some relights. Leaves a little moisture in the bowl, but no dottle and no bite or any harsh notes to be found. Has a strong nic-hit. Has a long lived after taste and room note. Made for the experienced smoker and is not an all day smoke.

I would agree with most of JimInks Review, except that I didn't find any Lakeland topping, or any topping for that matter. A 'strong Lakeland flavor' for me would be something like GH Dark Plug Rose Geranium or SG RB Plug, while a light one would be something like GH Glengarry Flake. Perhaps those who dislike all Lakelands should avoid this, but those who enjoy both Lakelands and unflavored strong flakes should give this a try and decide for themselves.
