Ready rubbed ribbon, easy to fill the bowl, easy to light. Tin note is “vapery”, little sweater though: spices and black tea dominant.
Medium moist. Spicy, meaty, sharp and crisp in taste. Medium flavour, nicotine on the lighter side. I’d consider it a good tobacco. It bites the tongue easily especially when dried out a bit, hence I won’t recommend to do so.

This is my easiest Va/Per to smoke.No curly,no flake...means no preparation time, just stuff and go. It has got a nice sweetness and a nice spicy fruitiness. The small amount of the orients come through once in a while and make this smoke more interesting. I use this blend to get my palate clean because I love the english blends. The ready rubbed mixture is easy to pack and needs a little more room in the chamber.

Bag note is citrus , fruity, sweet . Beautiful ready rubbed cut bright colors. I find it is quite similar to Dorchester but much stronger overall and in the perique. The top notes are citrus and sweet fruit not specifically apricot but similar. The smoke is just a bit lite in sweetness. Some woodiness on the retro hale. The Orientals and Turkish provide a bit of spice. I use and recommend a medium bowl and light puffing. This one gets harsh if puffed hard. If your candence is slow it will give you great flavors and is quite complex. Nic hit is a bit past the medium mark. Stays very consistent throughout the whole bowl. A bit strong for an all day smoke but a great after dinner change.
