Cornell & Diehl - Cap's Blend.
The blend includes about an even amount of each of the two tobaccos but sadly it arrived damp. Although the pouch-note is governed by the whiskey there's a sweetness indicative of something sweeter than just the whiskey. Caramel, maybe.
The whiskey's the strongest topping, but like in the pouch' aroma there's a touch of something sticky and sweet. Although the black Cavendish gives the leading flavour the smoke isn't sludgy, or too clumsy. The nutty, light Cavendish is slightly coarse and prevents the black Cav' from hogging things. It burns nicely, cool and quite slow, without any tongue bite.
Nicotine: above mild. Room-note: nice.
Cap's Blend? I don't find it as bad as the reviews to date! Recommended:
Three stars.
