Gauntleys-Deliverance. When I open the pouch I see a very dark mixture. I'm happy that it appears to have the right content of moisture in it as well, I detest wet blends! The smell from the pouch is rich indeed, it's a little different to the usual blends as I can't quantify if it's aromatic or not! Slightly aro', slightly smoky with a decent Virginia note. The smoke does qualify as a little more aromatic though. It isn't too strong at all with added tastes but I find them easy to pick out. The vanilla is of a good weight, giving the smoke a great creaminess. The chocolate is also perfect in the mix, I actually find it gets easier to discern the longer the pipe burns.
Of all the included tobaccos I find that it's the smokiness from the Latakia that steals the show. It works perfectly alongside the vanilla, this sort of calms the flavour and stops it becoming too harsh.
I find this to have a good nicotine quantity. Being medium so it would probably suit most smokers.
Although the added flavour is easy to identify it doesn't bite me, I often find aromatics can be a bit nippy! The smoke is fairly cool too so it oozes relaxation!
I find this a good tobacco, worthy of three stars.

Smells great in the pouch, and has an excellent room note. From the description, it sounds like this is a lot more of an aromatic than it is, with vanilla and latakia fighting it out. However, once lit I didn't find it to be much of an aro at all, but still a masterful blend. The lat steps back and the casing blends very well into the mix to produce a relaxing and flavourful smoke which is as smooth as silk. It's quite Nic-lite, but is nice change of pace from a hefty flake or English blend. Great stuff for an evening unwind.
