The rather tangy lemon Virginias are citrusy with a light grassiness, and are the lead component. The nutty, earthy, molasses sweet brown burley is a supporting player with a pinch or two of spice. The unsweetened black cavendish offers some brown sugar. The fruity sweet marula topping dominates the tobaccos, and a light clove-like, peppery spice is added as well. The strength is just shy of the center of mild to medium, while the taste is medium. The nic-hit is just past mild. The spice is tingly enough to cause tongue bite if puffed fast. Burns clean at a moderate pace with a very consistent flavor, and leaves little dampness in the bowl. Needs an average number of relights. Has a pleasantly lingering after taste. Not quite an all day smoke.
