This K&K blend is a nicely prepared mixture of ribbon and cut flakes that vary from intense orange to jet black. I thought the initial moisture content was too high and got beter burning characteristics with some drying. Then, the packing and lighting were effortless. The tin and room aromas are wonderful and fruity as advertised. As with many aromatics, if only the taste matched. I normally don't smoke aromatics or Cavendish processed blends and that should be considered. However, I found the initial taste as dry and hot and it almost seemed as if the tobacco casing was burning off along with my mouth. A tobacco taste never fully developed. If you prefer VA flakes or VA/Perique blends as I do, this one is not the answer.
