Low Country Pipe & Cigar Carolina Christmas 2008
(2.40)
From snow covered cabins near Asheville to the festively decorated streets of Charleston, few regions celebrate Christmas with the friendly verve of the Carolinas. To share the spirit of this special time and place, we created this exquisite limited edition broken flake. Rich red Virginias sit atop a base of a blend of white and dark burleys, joined by Green River black cavendish for a touch of sweetness. The barest hint of Cyprian latakia serves to accentuate the main components, pulling together the entire sophisticated composition.

The tin aroma of these loose-pressed, wide-cut flakes is dominated by the distinctiveness of black cavendish with the sweet woodiness of VAs supporting it.
The initial flavor is both brightly and sweet. The burley and latakia, though nearly evanescent, soon manifest and play admirably, cutting the sweetness a bit.
Easy burning and ingratiating, Carolina Christmas is pleasantly middling. Extended aging will likely have little significant effect, so enjoy this now. It went best in narrow to medium gauge chambers.
