This blend was a real disappointment! The tin note is quite offensive. A strong artificial strawberry flavour so i expected a aromatic bomb here! The tobacco is easy to fill and light and burns down to the end without needing a relight. While smoking i didn´t notice any taste at all! There´s neither strawberry nor champagne. Just warm air with a bit of sweetness but nothing else. Conclusion: This blend isn´t disgusting or something but just plain flat. Reminds me more of cigarette smoke. I will not buy it again...

Nice. Another 1 good one for those that like fruity flavor. This blend is sourish flavor in a good way (aroma). Smoke taste cool and sweet. The down side is that the last quarter in bowl loses it's flavor ealier than expected. I would give 3.5* for this genre.
