I think the previous reviewer may want to double check which Dobie blend he was smoking because far from being a shag cut, this old classic is a broken flake, similar to some of the Rattray's Virginia offerings.
This blend is very hard to find, and my tin must have been at least 10-15 years old. The aging certainly mellowed the leaf to the point where it was as smooth as silk with no "edge" whatsoever. The addition of some Oriental leaf to the deeply rich Virginia makes the smoking experience extra special as each delicious puff brings a delicate tobacco spice to the taste.
If you smoke multiple bowls a day, I think this Dobie offering might be good to get you through the afternoons and early evening hours before finishing up with a good face slapper.
