Upon popping the round tin, I’m greeted with a heavenly aroma of orange and chocolate. It’s neither chemical nor overpowering. I would describe the tobacco as rubbed out, broken flakes. They are lightly moist, but can be smoked as is.

It lights easily, and my initial impression is what I can only describe as Orange Crush. It’s unique and captivating. It quickly morphs to a mouthwatering, plain orange. I also sense mild notes of hay, bread, cocoa and spice. The Orange Crush and spiciness re-emerge with quick puffing.

The burn rate and body are midway between mild and medium. The nicotine level is mild. It’s neither harsh nor syrupy. It smokes well in briars and cobs.

Bahia Orange is my benchmark of aromatic blends. The topping doesn’t drown out the high quality tobaccos, it enhances them. It’s a very pleasant all day smoke, and will be appreciated by all pipe aficionados. If it were available in the United States, it would be in my rotation.

HU Tobacco Bahia Orange - The secret to this amazing aro is to let it dry in open air for a few days before piping - this reveals the absolutely highest grade tobaccos and their flavors with a creamy orange topping that compliments beautifully with balance and deep complexity!

Another great blend from HU. Medium, orange flavored Virginia & cavendish mixture. Easy lit, smoke, no tongue bite and unique taste. Leaving some moisture at the end. Overall highly recommended tobacco.

This is an Aro with a lot of tobacco flavour in it. Smells really nice like bitterlemon, orange and dark chocolate, very tasty. As soon as it's lit, the tobacco kicks in, mild and gentle with no tonguebite at all. You get a big amount of tobacco flavour with a chocolate-orange taste, that's allways present but never too much.
