This blend has Cavendish, Burley, and black Cavendish. This is quality leaf; there are no stems or midribs to speak of. This tobacco also has some vanilla casing; it takes considerable time to dry it out for smoking. With only 30 minutes air time, my first bowl was good and interesting. Interesting in that the second half of the bowl was better than the first. First lighting is tough, as the blend is moist. First impressions are of the smell of a fruit basket, briefly. The black Cavendish provides the structure and backbone of the flavor; the burley fills out the body with a little nicotine muscle, but not much. Impressive is how dry this and the other Milan house aromatic tobaccos have smoked for me, in spite of feeling damp when loading the bowl. I only had to use one pipe cleaner per bowl smoked in briars and no pipe cleaners with the Missouri Meerschaums.

The burley is mildly nutty sweet, The gold cavendish is grass, citrus, and touch of honey. The black cavendish has a little vanilla. The topping is vanilla with a smattering of caramel. The tobaccos are mostly sublimated by the toppings, though the burley lightly seems more obvious than the others. Has almost no nic-hit. A little moist due to some PG, but doesn’t need any dry time. Burns cool, smooth and slightly creamy at a slow to moderate pace, though I do get a chemical note at times. It does require a few relights due to the moisture level of the tobacco. Won't bite. Leaves the bowl with some dampness. Has a nice after taste and room note. An all day smoke.
