I am a bit disappointed by this blend. I was expecting a strong presence of coffee, but I felt close to nothing of it. The overall taste is rather bland and uninteresting. In the pouch it is somewhat pleasant, but I could not smell any coffee. It is instead a rather bland liquory smell, with vague notes of vanilla. It burns easily and it's relatively dry with no tongue bite, but the strength of the tobacco is rather weak and unimpressive. I can't comment on the room note. The pouch says 4 out of 5, but I have the feeling it's not really a tobacco that makes people around you smile in delight. I may give it another shot just because every tobacco deserves another chance, but I would not recommend this tobacco. It's ok as a standby if there's nothing else around, or for first-time smokers, but with so many more interesting mixtures out there, there's not a lot of reasons to indulge in it.

Come tutti gli Skandinavik che ho provato (non molti, grazie a dio) questo tabacco è una vera fetecchia. Gli Skandinavik sono, per quanto mi riguarda, dei panettoni dolciastri brucia lingua per neofiti che molto presto cambieranno tabacco, scoprendo i veri tabacchi ed affinando così i loro gusti. Purtroppo molto reperibili, sono il classico errore da principiante.
