This is way too light for my liking. However, I recommend it if you are interested in what John Cotton 1 & 2 used to taste like. I was able to sample some from the 50s and Dick hit it out of the park with this blend. I would not be able to tell that Dick's blend was from freshly blended tobacco. They are VERY close.
A quality blend that is just too airy for my tastebuds as they have been seasoned to heavy englishes and orientals.
Don't hesitate to try it.
