Topped with a hint of delicate black cavendish and nutty burley matched with expressive flavours of honey, plum and cinnamon. The result is a divine tobacco created on a base of sun drenched mature Virginias combined with different cuts to guarantee a taste of complete harmony.

I was really excited to try this but once again like Christmas ale I leave disappointed.
While the smell of the baccy is a wonderful blend of sweet spices, dried fruit and a biscuit note once lit I find it really fails to deliver on those flavours in any meaningful way.
I find the smoke to be quite wishy washy with it's flavour, I can pick out some plum and dried fruit notes with warm spices but I was really hoping for something more in your face.
I think I will give it a few days without smoking anything and then have another bowl of this just to see if I have shot my pallet.

A real christmass blend, u really cant be sure at any point about flavoring, any taste is like a little surprise. I tasted a delightful sweet flavor at my first bowl of this tobacco, which contains honey and cinnamon. After that, noticed only plum and anise for 2 bowls. Sometimes sweet and sometimes sour, a perfect unstability.
One thing is sure, it leaves an anise taste after smoke.
Edit after fourth bowl: it is a present plum and anise flavour. I am not sure how I get that sweet taste at my first bowl. Still recommended but dont wait sweet flavor.
