I ignore if there are several presentations for this weed as I noticed that one of the reviewers mentions opening a tin. I was given a polyethene pouch not unlike any other "drugstore" $5 blend. First time I tried it I almost cursed the guy who presented me this... I was overly humid, bathed in PG and cased in a vanilla/honey sauce that tasted anything but tobacco. It had all the qualities of an acethylene torch and scorched my tongue even tho I took extreme care to smoke it as slow as I could while keeping the pipe lit.

Since I believe that everything on earth has something positive, the best I can say about this is that I got it for free. I dumped it on my tobacco cabinet considering that it might camouflage the room note of some of my more aggressive blends. Today I decided to give it a second chance. As of now the tobacco is quite dry, although still pliable. It lighted fine on the first try and much of the overwhelming casing was gone, or at least subdued. It is still a hot weed, it demands to be smoked extremely slow, letting the pipe rest for long lapses; still, it's quite hard to keep the bowl cool. The room note is now less overwhelming and the taste of the last third of the bowl is almost pleasant. However, the Burley and Cavendish overwhelm the Virginia, granting there may be any. Its taste is acid, somewhat reminiscent of licorice. The aroma is heavy with vanilla.

Summing up, I cannot recommend it for any occasion. If you must have an aromatic, look elsewhere.

I only have two things to say: 1. If I want something that burns hot enough to melt concrete I will buy magnesium dust, Not tobacco! 2. Before I goop up a good pipe to make the room smell pretty I will just buy some air freshener, Not tobacco!

Unless you are a VERY slow smoker who dosen't like the taste of tobacco, stay away from this sweet goopy weed.

Unlike the burley base of most Macbaren blends this one is mostley heavily PG'ed cavendish. Getting this to actual burn was a pain. Once burning the flavor is of casing and not any kind of tobacco. If you like goopy PG laiden blends this one should please you emmensely.
