Like all F&T "plugs," this is really more like a flake, which is to say it looks, feels and rubs out like a flake. Cut plug tends to be a bit denser in my experience.
The leaf and quality of blending and processing are more than apparent, but this stuff definitely has some sort of topping. There is a slight but noticable floral scent to the flake, and the light-up produces a decidedly soapy taste. (A quick double-check of the product description above confirms this: the "natural flavoring" of which it speaks is probably floral in nature.) This flavor diminishes in the second half of the bowl, but never completely goes away. The taste of the tobacco is first-rate VA, but the Bowl-O'-Lifebuoy sensation rules it out completely for me, sad to say.

new version >>< A light red Virginia flake, slightly sweet with natural flavoring. <<
old version >>> Dark brown, heavily fermented plug slice from the finest, fully ripe Virginia tobaccos. Smokers who love a spicy, highly aromatic tobacco come depends on their bill. <<<
in the tin new tobacco light - middlebrown (depends on age)
another current cheap crap of a former good stuff. How could it get 3 or 4 stars ?
