McClelland Dominican Glory Maduro
(3.33)
A balanced blend of rich, dark maduro cigar leaf and matured red and stoved Virginia tobaccos. The perfect pipe tobacco for the connoisseur of maduro cigars who enjoy pipes. Pressed into cakes and aged to develop characteristics and marry the flavors, then cut in flakes to be rubbed out to the smoker's personal preference.

This is definitively a good tobacco, with some cigar "feelings" i recommend this one to those who DON'T like aromatic tobacco and would like to try something other than a latakia based.

A very good cange of pace. there is virtually no cigar taste,unlike the churchill blend @ Wilke.If you like a decent ready rubbed go for it I would not buy a 100 gram tin though, you might feel stuck. A very good flavor and aroma.

OK, I bought a tin of this hoping it would be substantially different from their other flakes. Now, don't get me wrong - it's a tasty smoke and if you really pay attention the deep flavors from the cigar leaf are there. It's like Blackwoods Flake with a little less of the savory character that I like so much and a deep, dry cigar note just above the threshold of normal perception.
I have to smoke this when I've really got time to appreciate it or it just tastes like Blackwoods Lite. I prefer VA #24 to this, but give it a try if you like the idea of a subtle cigar note in a VA flake.
