The rum and maple are a little more pronounced here than in the Lane version, thought the maple is a little more obvious than the rum. The Virginia and burley are a little more sublimated by the toppings than the original was, but you do get a little Virginia grassy notes and slightly burley nuttiness. It’s fairly sweet, but you won’t be overpowered by a super strong maple/rum flavor, though it is richer than the original. The original was kind of bitey, and the tobacco was dryer, and burned faster than this version. The room note is very pleasant. Has little nicotine, and won't bite. This version burns clean and cool at a reasonable pace with a consistent flavor. Leaves little moisture in the bowl, and needs an average number of relights. Has a very pleasant after taste, and is an all day smoke. Also sold in a pouch under the Tobacco Galleria name, as well as in bulk. I rated the original made by Lane at two stars.

I bought a pouch labeled Tobacco Gallaria. I was not impressed. I could not taste either rum or maple. I would not buy this again. Those nearby said it smelled pleasantly of a wood fire.
