A superbly balanced blend of golden Virginia and burley tobaccos enhanced with a flurry of full bodied toasted cavendish and lavishly flavored with a delightful extract of freshly roasted hazelnuts.

This has a great aroma in the pouch and in this case, that translates into a great aroma in the room. It doesn't in any way translate into a hazelnut taste, but it smokes smoothly enough though. Puff it too fast and it will bite you slightly. While great on its own, it also mixes nicely with Lanes BCA. I've mixed them 75%/25% And the small amount of BCA helps add another dimension. All in all, an excellent aromatic with a wonderful room note.

Reading the above review the fear was put forth. The thought of "there goes a Christmas present from the wife that will be barely tolerable."
The Virginia and Burley cut seems to be the majority of this blend ~95%. Just a few flecks of toasted Cavendish add a little body.
Yes, this is a very potent aromatic blend. It reminds one of Captain Black Gold with a little extra nuttiness coming through.
Do not discount this blend, it took a little bit of playing with the bowl packing, but it was worth it. It can be smoked relatively easy if a good bit of bounce is left in this blend.
In addition, the flavor of the Burley and Cavendish blend to give an illusion of toasted Hazelnut with a good bit of sugar and cream. This is not a bad trait for the aromatic smoker.
Smoking this in a Stanwell Apache and a Captain Black Sentinel produced the same results. A favorable smoke and with the Stanwell one has to really puff on it to get a bite to come through.
If you need a fix of a decent aromatic then try this. If you are a hard core, VA, Burley and/or English smoker, be warned and stay away.

The Hazelnut flavor is forward and tasty. It fades a little but the nuttiness become alive. A very solid everyday smoke. If you like a nutty taste with a nice bit of sweetness finishing with with a wood grass combo this is it.

As a smoker of mostly aromatics, I must say that I am indeed pleased with this blend. I have very distinct tastes and for the most part the Hazelnut blend satisfied me. The pouch aroma is delightful but not overwhelming, the flavour again pleasant but not vulgar with the casing.
I smoked this in a King's Cross featherweight and I think that helped alot because even though the blend is nice, I would not suggest smoking alot of this. A small bowlful is enough.
I will keep this as an occasional mid-evening offering...
