I love the pouch aroma of this blend. Every time I reached for it, I would open the jar and inhale deeply. Notes of cocoa, slight fruitiness and a mild alcohol undertone.
Appearance is 2 distinct leaves, the burley and the Virginia. Although no stems were found in my pouch, there are some large chunks of burley that seem big enough to roll a cigar out of. Take a few minutes to break those up, there wont be any issues. I learned to pack this one with a light touch, as it does swell like several of the other match blends from Russ.
As TallPuffO'Burley stated, this does have a slight perfume/floral character, but it dissipates shortly after the first few puffs. However, it does not interfere with enjoying the natural flavors of this tobacco. I really enjoy the toastiness of the burley, and the Virginia offer the right amount of natural sweetness to balance this blend out. Notes of cocoa undertones are apparent throughout the entire bowl, with a slightly spicy finish. Briggs has been a great companion for me the last few weeks with the extreme heat and humidity we have had here. Its light enough for summer time smoking, but fulfilling enough to satisfy your cravings. I truly think this will also be a great indoor wintertime blend.
Pairs well with the morning coffee
