HU Tobacco JU 52
(3.33)
If you have ever heard the powerful boom of the BMW engines and seen the massive and yet majestic shape of a Ju52 (Auntie Ju) circling in the sunlight, surely you have felt an immediate fascination with this giant of the skies. Massive, powerful, majestic, yet playful and even a little naïve, but always impressive – this is how the “Ju 52“ blend, too, will present itself to you. Malty and slightly fruity tones give the powerful, dark pressed, medium-strong Virginia/Perique Broken Flake its character. A voluminous smoking experience in terms of taste, but without irksome weight. A gentle giant for dreams of the pioneering spirit of the past.

The JU52 was a German transport plane , actually the Junkers 52 , used in the Nazi era . A powerful air craft , capable of transporting many troops to a combat area , it has now delivered a powerful punch to one of my GBD pipes . A virginia- perique broken flake , on the dark side , it commands much attention upon opening . Make no mistake , this is strong smoke with musty topping that invades the smoke and makes it over bearing . I doubt that I will ever get it out of the poor GBD that I smoked it in . On the positive side , the tobacco is a good quality and , beyond the topping , lies a decent blend . I have enjoyed several HU aromatics , though I am not an aromatic smoker . Usually , HU is able to incorpotate the aromatic agent without really altering disturbing the qualities of the tobacco but …… not this time .
