HU Tobacco Indaba
(3.73)
Indaba is a blend which stands for its own. Medium-strong ready rubbed, as well as dark fired Virginias, enhanced by some Kentucky for an earthy foundation, contribute to a distinctive taste experience. Sweet and spicy, along with a creamy texture makes this blend a unique treat apart from the everyday!
Notes: Hans Wiedemann has stated that the Indaba has a very mild caramel flavouring to it. (They changed the name of the series from "Foundation by Musicó" to "African Line")

I must confess that I'm a sucker for HU's Virginia based baccies. Indaba is one of the top-of-the line (IMHO). I knew that VAs used were of first grade but this mixture is a world apart. The Dark Fired Kentucky is perfectly complimentary, like a good Bourbon and its ice, and never predominant.
There's a whiff of dried fruit (figs? Raisin?) opening the nice tin and it stays during the whole smoke. As reported by the manufacturer, a pinch of caramel is slightly noticeable and a good add-on.
No edges and medium strength. I'm used to Nic-bombs (Gawith & Hoggart are my cup of teas) so for me it’s an all day smoker. Highly, highly recommended.
