Holger Danske Sunny Delight
(2.00)
Ribbon cut Virginias are carefully blended with Black Cavendish, and for the balance of the blend a touch of Burley is added. The sweet vanilla taste is elegantly supported by a ripe orange flavor.
Notes: Previously blended in Germany by Planta. Currently blended in Denmark by Mac Baren.
Previously known as "Vanilla and Orange". The name was changed to "Sunny Delight" in accordance to EU regulations.

Another typical Danish, supposedly, vanilla/fruit blend.
It's as dry as our sons toothbrush, and comes in a rather useless pouch that might have something to do with the aridity of said tobacco. On transferring to a tin it seemed they had been very generous with the contents, seemed more like 100g than 50g.
It looks like most of the others in this Holske range - black and brown with a few lumpy bits here and there.
Smells really quite fresh and tasty in the pouch with a trace of vanilla.
Orange ?
Nope don't get that at all.
As we all know opening tin/pouch fragrance/taste come through in the smoke about once in a blue moon and this one is no different, although , to be fair, it does try.
Vanilla - very faint. Orange ? Even fainter, actually non-existent.
It's harsh - again like a lot of Danish tobaccos - and it doesn't take too many prisoners when it comes to heat of bowl. Could bite hard if pushed I think.
Mrs RW has made no comment on room aroma - it seems to have passed the house test.
In conclusion, a typically stolid Danish blend not very different to the others. Recommended ? No not really unless of course you are a Danish fan and working throught the range.
