Dan Tobacco Cock Robin
(3.00)
Cock Robin is the title of an old English folk song. English is also the tenor of this ready rubbed mixture with lots of pressure fermented Virginia introducing a sweet base, and a little latakia contributing a touch of smokiness. Smokes gentle and cool, with an unobtrusive room note of pure tobacco.

Superb English!
This is one of the most underestimated tobaccos I have come across. The virginias give it a subtle sweetness and the latakia adds a complexity to the mixture. Everything is rounded off by a very gentle, very mild aroma of something I cannot quite define: maybe cream, maybe honey, perhaps vanilla.. but yet again, this casing is very very subtle..
I've reserved one of my dunnies just to smoke this mixture.
If you give it a year or something in the cellar, well... this thing just gets even better!
