This is a beautifully prepared cut plug in flake form, medium brown with streaks of very light leaf. It rubs out, packs and lights easily. It produces a smoke that tastes of lightly sweetened Virginia. There is absolutely no bite and the tobacco burns all the way to the bottom of the bowl with very little tending. This is very, very tasty. The Virginia flavor is very light, but it is constantly there and quite distinctive. This could be the ideal tobacco with which to start the day. I like the F&T tobaccos, and I probably like this one the best. Highly recommended for the Virginia lover who likes it mild, slightly sweet and with no bite. Paddy.

A nicely prepared flake of darker VAs. Easy to pack, light and keep lit. It smokes cool without any bite or moisture buildup although it does get slightly spicy @ the end of the bowl. However, overall it is one of the mildest red VAs that I've smoked. I've been exploring alternatives to the stronger straigh VAs and blends for use in the hot/humid weather and this one fits the bill. I've yet to be disappointed by this manufacturer. Perhaps, that's why they've been around since 1720.

Dark fruit with natural baking spice heart, naturally sweet and spicy. Medium bodied yet gentle and relaxing. The taste of quality shine through immediately. For those looking for a Virginia flake that has depth and intrigue. This has both in spades. This made it to my must stock shelf.

I feel like I never really heard much about the Fribourg and Treyer line of tobaccos. But I am glad I have gotten to try many of them.
This is a fantastic little flake. Tin note if figgy dried fruit and light hay. The flakes themselves are captivating. Beautiful dark and light brown specks throughout.
They are moist but were ready to be folded and smoked. The smoke is relatively cool, long lasting and very flavorful. Consistent throughout the bowl. Its not a complicated blend but keeps my interest.
Will be buying more of this when available.

After filling a few different sized bowls with Fribour & Treyer's Cut Blended Plug, I noted that the warmth (not actual heat, but 'warmth' as an overal characteristic-- inviting, sweet-ish, un-bitey, etc.). and character were allowed to open up in a rather large, newish Dunhill Group 5 shell briar bent with an almost chimney-depth bowl. I had a long, solitary right down from Connecticut to NY tonight with blustery cool spring evening weather to add a certain romance to the experience.
didn't get any late-bowl gurgle but had to fiddle a bit with clearing the shank of that dastardly nuisance, stray flow-hindering dottle bit.
This blend was purchased at Davidoff and I think had been sitting there for a couple of years, and then stored in my home for for about 3 or 4 more years. It seems to have mellowed to perfection. Also, I enjoy the old-style, the wax paper moisture guard and the minimal size of the tin. Great stuff, middle-of-the-road; if you want something that will bowl you over, skip this one. but if you want a straight ahed smo
