Dan Tobacco Da Vinci

(2.73)
A delightful blend of light Virginia grades combined with black cavendish. Infused with Tuscan red wine, this blend has a pleasant aroma.
Notes: Tin of mid 90's CAO Da Vinci (manufactured in the EU by D.T.M.) says, "Da Vinci pipe smoking tobacco made from golden light Virginia grades and soothing sweet mild black cavendish matured under addition of fullbodied red chianti wines from the growing area known as the Colli Senesi. A real pleasure for all spoilt smokers and tobacco connoisseurs, enjoy this sweet mild and pleasant smoke and its fragrant aroma."

I bought Dan Tobacco's Da Vinci because a woman who works at The Briar Shoppe said she loves how it smells. I like to smoke there, their free matches are the best in the world, and I want them to stay in business, so I paid nearly double what I would pay online to try this. I usually just get pipe cleaners there. The woman came and sat near me as I lit up, so I guess the room note is good. Da Vinci smokes well and tastes pretty good, but the flavor comes from what has been added, rather than from the tobacco itself.

Tin note is very sweet with aromas of caramel and some kind of fruit(thinking plum) dominating. Lit fairly easily and stayed lit without gooping up though it did have its hot moments. I am a fan of red wines and have only sampled chianti a handful of times. The taste of the tobacco when smoked starts out very tangy sweet with the higher range notes of plum, citrus and some vanilla. Mid to end of bowl it develops into a more deep, bass note of plum and a rather spicey, licorice-like aroma in the nose. Overall, it does not strike me as wine though the tin description does allow one to use their imagination and make this association. However, it is a decent quality aromatic and my only complaint is its very notcieable lack of true tobacco body and flavour.

A quality tobacco, but perhaps not my cup of tea. I still don't undestand if it has a taste -and in that case tastes good- or not. Too mild, it's good for me most after breakfast. Later I feel it becoming tasteless and I prefer something with more (english) taste.

A must try if you like aromatics.
