I'm not an specialist in pure Virginias,VAs, in fact , i dont like so much... This is not a exception. For me is strong in Nicotine, bitter and peppery... Two starts for their quality,but is not a tobacco for me, my personal preference.

UPDATE: I've been smoking a 3 years aged tin, and it had changed very little. Sad. I guess the tobacco is tinned too dry for the fementation to really get going. The Kentucky is, if anything, more noticable today than when fresh. I don't really like these pseudo-Fribourg & Treyers.
CORRECTION: this is hardly a regular va-per as i stated in my original review below, as the perique is used so sparingly as to be only just discernable. it may contain a bit of kentucky, too. END CORRECTION
a quite pleasant va-per. no bite to mention, a delicate virginia sweetness, a slight perique fruitiness, and in the background, the typical german-danish sugar casing. it is in no way a casing taste that will make me see this tobacco as an aromatic, but it is unmistakingly of k&k origin. as always with those, it is well crafted, easy to light, and comes in a pocket-friendly tin. one of the best of the present day fribourg & treyers.
not an absolutely first rate tobacco, but one which will, i feel, improve greatly with a a few years of cellaring. my present tin has been cellared for half a year, and is already a lot better than straight from the tobacconist. it may even develop into a four star tobacco in a few years.
reccommended as a nice summer smoke.

Extremely good quality tobacco, well presented. Light flavor, very pleasant. Good burn characteristics, nice ash. An all-around good tobacco...
In other words, boring. Also over-priced. And boring.
