A straight uncomplicated flue cured Virginia that is a little grassy and hay-like, and fairly tart and tangy citrusy with some darting dark fruit, wood and earth notes. It also has a very minute spice and honey hit. The nic-hit is a step past the center of mild to medium. The strength and taste are a step short of the medium mark. Ribbon cut for very easy, slightly fast burning, it requires few relights. Won't bite or get harsh, leaves no moisture in the bowl and will burn to ash with little trouble. Has a few very small rough edges. Makes tons of smoke. It may be a one dimensional smoke, but it has a very consistent flavor to the finish. It’s an all day no nonsense blend, and not every pipe tobacco product has to be complex to enjoy. Would make a good mixer. Has a lightly lingering, pleasant after taste, and room note. I give it three and a half stars out of four.
