Opening the tin finds a wonderful full stringy English-cut blend. All componets in this blend can be detected in a complimentary way with each other. There is definitely a citrusy note that interplays off and on all the way down the bowl.
The blend easily packs and does not need a relight. It burns to a medium/fine gray white ash, without condensation in the heel at the end.
After my initial bowl or two I was not greatly impressed. Maybe I had rushed the experience. Now I find that several days have passed and when trying the blend again, I appreciate the subtle nuances to a far greater extent.
Just a really nice, smooth, what I would consider as an all-day smoke.
