Rattray London Eye
(3.25)
London Eye is a noble pipe tobacco of the highest quality. The perfect marriage of golden, red and dark Virginia tobaccos in different cuts are rounded off with burley and black cavendish. The aroma of rum, coconut, and macadamia nuts makes it a truly exceptional blend.

Rattray - London Eye.
The mixture's coarse and contains far less black Cavendish than the other two. The majority of the blend's yellow and brown. A fresh tin has good moisture.
It lights up easily and gives, in my opinion, a wonderful aromatic smoke. The rum doesn't lambaste my tongue with lots of alcohol, instead the nuts are in the lead. There's a notable coconut and brazil nut flavour, but the macadamia's have a slight saltiness too. Any vanilla from the black Cavendish is WAY down the line. Up front are the honey-sweet Virginias, with the Burley in support. London Eye burns well, remaining free from bite throughout.
Nicotine: mild to medium. Room-note: pleasant.
A definite four star aromatic!
Highly recommended.

I like it a lot. It's subtle. None of the flavours are over the top. There's beans, rum and a (slight) hint of vanilla. pipe used: Damiano Rovera freehand with 9mm filter
