This is Two Timer with Virginia, and with that exception, the smoking qualities are the same. The earthy, woody, double toasted burleys are toasty, and very nutty with a little cocoa as the lead component. The Virginia is a little grassy with some tart and tangy citrus, and a touch of honey in a support role. While it may be used as a RYO, it does well as pipe tobacco. The strength is a couple of steps past the center of mild to medium, while the nic-hit is a slot below that level. The taste is medium. Puffed at a moderate rate, it’ll mostly keep its flavor and you'll avoid a harsh note. Puffed fast, it’ll have some cigarette notes, and possibly a little loss of flavor. It won't bite. Has no casing or topping. Burns fast, but not hot, and very clean with a consistent flavor as it easily burns to ash. Leaves almost no moisture in the bowl, and requires very few relights. Has a nice, lightly lingering after taste, and slightly stronger room note. An uncomplicated all day smoke that does even better with a light hydration.

D&R - Two Timer Gold

Bought this one on a whim and rumor, based on reviews I expected this to be drier than a dog turd out in the sun, was I surprised to find this ready to smoke, considering especially that this tin was from Aug2018, purchased nov2020.

Word has it D&R is now gone with many blends getting the axe under new management.

This blend smoked great even when pushed, slightly sweet Va, slightly nutty Burley. Overall a great lazy afternoon blend just enough to keep my attention and I know what I can expect from this.

I'm enjoying it right now. Not much I can add to the positive reviews that proceed this. No bite for me. It is not as dry as other slim-cut tobacco, but then again this is a thin ribbon as opposed to other D&R blends that are shag. It has a slightly sweet nutty taste, that stays consistent down the bowl. Quite mild and a no brainer while your doing "All" of your sons chores around the yard. I usually have no re-lights and it burns a little quicker than average.

I recommend this one, but it won't blow anyone's sock off!
