The Virginias offer mild grass and citrus, which is often a theme with Orlik aromatics. They form the base of the blend. The burley is lightly nutty, wood and molasses sweet with a touch of earth. The black cavendish has a mild sugar hit. The caramel, vanilla and toffee toppings may seem mild, but they do sublimate the tobacco taste to some extent. The vanilla takes a little of the lead over the other two toppings that underscore what you notice from start to finish. The strength and taste levels are mild. Has a very mild nic-hit, and it won’t bite. Everything that went into this mixture is well harmonized for a very consistent, smoothly sweet flavor that never weakens. Burns fairly cool, and very clean at a moderate pace. Requires few relights, and leaves virtually no moisture in the bowl. The after taste is as mellow as the taste you get when you smoke it. Has a very pleasant room note. A mildly sweet all day smoke that gains just a tad more strength in the last quarter of the experience.

A nice mild tobacco that I will probably buy again. The smell of the tobacco from the pouch is fantastic, toffee and butter, vanilla. The colour of the tobacco is mostly towards orange with darker bits, beautiful. So it is Virginia, Burley and Cavendish. But there are mote I think. If you spread it out and look at it you´ll see some rougher bits, it seems like cut plug pieces. It is easy to pack and smoke. But it is not so easy scrape out, seems to leave unburnt tobacco that really sticks to the bowl.

But now something strange happens when you smoke, there is no connection between that wonderful tin note and the smoke itself. When you smoke it you don´t taste that toffee, vanilla taste I think. But the people around you, they get it and say it smells wonderful. But it is still a nice smoke and sometimes it surprise you with a darker taste, from the Burley or cut plug. So it is interesting enough.

Orlik Club Mixture provides a colorful mix of Virginia, Burley and Black Cavendish in different cuts, including some ready rubbed. There is no imminent smell of a topping detectable to me and it seems like only the BC was cased in the process of making it. I got a nicely balanced, very pleasant blend of tobaccos in taste. The casing does provide some creaminess to it, very subtle and not to compare with modern high aromatics. This is more a Danish classic in type.

Too much heat lets it bite and produce a little moisture at the bottom. I find the Club Mixture not spectacular, but it is an honest and solid smoke that just feels right. For just a tad more casing try the Mellow Mixture (beige/fawn pouch).
