Knightsbridge is one of 3-4 different blends Fox made for the Harrod's Store and it has been out of production since sometime in the 1980s. Perhaps it was the aging, but this was a very nice Virginia offering utilizing the popularity of Fox's steam pressing for Virginia tobaccos that darkened the leaf and took the edge off. My tin, once popped, gave off a beautifully sweet smell of fermented Virginia and at the match, the leaf was smooth and actually light for this style of Virginia. If you can find a tin, the experience will be a very nice one for light Virginia lovers.
