As I've gotten older, my taste has very much gravitated to milder, low nicotine tobaccos and this one really fits the bill. I enjoy its slightly sweet taste, but non-cloying flavour and total lack of bite. Were I an all day smoker, I'd smoke this all day. As it is, I still enjoy it it as it is in the morning or evening. As a mixer, it has really improved my 'pensioners' bag. I also mix a bit of it in with Pegasus, SWR and other burley blends which I enjoy but which have too much of a nic-buzz for me, by itself. Four stars.

Jar note of chocolate, vegetation, rich earth. The black tobacco has a little dark brown and moisture content is high. The cut is mostly ribbon with a good bit course cut. Drying out a bit is needed. Burns slow with many relights. The strength is mild and nic is mild. No flavoring detected, despite tin note. Taste is mild to medium and mostly consistent, with notes of wood, mildly sweet, earth, nuts, dry vegetation, sporadic hints of cocoa, bitter, mild tartness, cooked brown sugar, a toasty background note, and a smooth retro. Room note is pleasant to tolerable, and aftertaste is great.

This tobacco was sent to me as a sampler from the shop I bought my pipe from. I have in the past smoked aromatics mainly with Black Gold being my go to tobacco. I got out of the hobby for about 2 years and am trying my hand at English and Balkan blends. I don't know what leaf is used in this blend but am thinking some type of burley? Who knows, maybe it's a Virginia. All I know is that the way I received the tobacco, it was just the right moisture content and burned extremely easy. Since I have the new Morta pipe, I smoked the first bowl very gently letting it go out since I didn't want to overheat the chamber. It relit very easily and I believe would have been a one light tobacco had my pipe been broken in. Overall, the flavor of the tobacco is very mild with some sweetness. It had no nicotine noticed and certainly did not bite. I thoroughly enjoyed the room note and even my wife said it had a good aroma. Basically, this could be an everyday smoke although it doesn't have any superlatives. It is just a good aromatic cavendish in my humble opinion. Try some!

I am reviewing several C+D blending tobaccos as a precursor to some blending experiments. I know not many people blend, but these reviews may provide some hints to those wanting to do so.
Stock Black Cavendish - the staple of many blends. Smokes cool with little bite, but also little flavor. Best in the designated role of a cooling agent and carrier for casing. Though if you want to smoke a very mild burley tasting tobacco, this could be it for you.
