Matt Robillard has created a superb old time Va/Burley blend spiced with a hint of Bourbon and Honey. Nuff said.

4noggins - Father Orin.
The blend's a mixture of brown, yellow, and black, pieces. It's slightly coarse but none of the blend's unmanageable. The aroma's clearly an aromatic one, and I can identify the bourbon and honey. Moisture's superb.
I note both the bourbon and honey in the smoke, without the flavour seeming too aromatic. Alongside these two is a top notch VaBur smoke, being nutty, rustic, with more dark fruit as opposed to grass and hay from the Virginias. A quibble with Father O', for me, is tongue bite: it has to be sipped gently. It burns well providing it's being well maintained, I can't just sit back, relax, and ponder on life, it needs regular tamps and a few relights. The temperature's fairly cool.
Nicotine: mild to medium. Room-note: pleasant.
Father Orin? A good enough smoke for three stars:
Recommended.
