This is what I said about No. 1:

"A bright, airy, smooth and easy blend. A nice soft and pliable broken flake that packs and burns extremely well, and that adapts to puffing pace. Yes, it's quite a light blend, with fragrant hay-like character plus a moderate touch of Perique sourness. Not particularly sweet, not fat, not an ultra-fruity blend: as I said, light and easy, but not lacking complexity at all... just a little bit of oomph."

No. 2 is actually a bit different. The cut is a little more ribbonish rather than the soft broken flake of No. 1. And yes, it's spicier, with more marked sour/peppery overtones. Personally, I prefer the gentle balance of No. 1.
