The topping is a light vanilla, it is very subtle and compliments the virginias very well. This tobacco is like a "top shelf" lane 1Q, but even better the red virginas interplay with the sweet topping and other tobaccos to build in flavor throughout the bowl. If your tounge is sensitive to red virginias or you want a blend that smells good. I cant think of any better! I like straight virginias; bought this when I found out McClelland shut their doors and nothing else was left. I dont like many aromatics this one is not goopy and you can still taste the quality tobaccos therein.
