Summary: a nice bright/red Virginia blend with a malted honey flavor and a mild champagne top note
Filling the void (somewhat) left by the departure of "Three Castles," Peter Stokkebye "Danish Export" presents a blend of Virginias, mostly bright but some red, with a degree of fermentation and a light top note that most of us will barely even notice. Mostly here one tastes the malted honey and citrus flavor of a good Virginia blend, without overwhelming fermentation, and with minimum acid bite. While the top in this category in my view, Gawith Hoggarth "Kendal Gold," is in fact a bit sweeter and less acidic, this blend comes very close, and to my mind appeals to the same people who smoke "Capstan" or "Navy Flake." You will need to breath-smoke this blend to taste anything, but then you get a depth of flavor rather than boldness, such that you can smoke this one all day and never get bored. On the downside, it is slightly more acidic than the "Kendal Gold" and has very little nicotine, so you may really have to smoke this one all day to hit that sweet spot where the eyes brighten and the temper drops. Still, since I can run by H.E.B. and pick this up for nine bucks and change on my way out of town, I plan to make this a regular in my rotation, since it is perfect for long drives among the rolling hills of Texas.

Danish Export is about the closest smoke I can find to Export cigarettes from Canada which are 100 per cent Virginia tobacco.I also purchased a couple of ounces of Danish Import for pipes which has a much courser cut. Didn't care for it all. It had to be relit several times and had an acrid taste and smell Stick with the shag cut for RYO cigs and forget the pipe version. I find the same to be true with Five Brothers when you want a pure burley. Too sting for the pipe but an excellent RYO when you're in the mood for one of these. I can say,however, that Danish Export shag cut is excellent in blending your own pipe tobaccos as I often do. It adds that extra tanginess from the Virginias to round out your blend. For cigarettes I give this tobacco 4 stars; for pipes I give it 2.
