Dan Tobacco Perfect Blend
(2.50)
Aiming too high? Certainly not! This blend can hardly be surpassed: Just opening the tin is a feast for the eye. Rich and aromatic, full bodied bouquet, a smooth and gentle smoke.
Notes: Identical casing as "Sweet Vanilla Honeydew".

MA Perfect Blend in the gold tin is the closest to tobacco taste you will get within the entire MA range. Compared to it’s VA sibling (SVHD) it is mildly cased with the honey/vanilla/molasses type aroma and a totally different beast. Black Cavendish tobaccos dominate the view accompanied by some bright VA spots. Out of a fresh tin it has some edge also that unique sweet soda kind of feeling to it, that all MA blends share. Not bad, but nothing to write home about either. Fresh somewhat recommended.
But: This is in fact an aromatic that ages well. I bought a new tin directly from Michael Apitz himself, opened it, smoked one or two average pipes and forgot about it for 9 years (accidently though)! The Perfect Blend stayed not only in perfect condition but now tastes better than ever. Smooth sweet harmony on par with toasty, roasted aged tobacco notes. Hopefully a couple of weeks do the trick as well. All MAs are designed to be smoked with a charcoal filter, but after some aging I wouldn’t dare to put anything in between the both of us. Aged highly recommended to lovers of good aromatics.
