Am I right about the following?
Virginia is giving me that somewhat sweet taste on my tongue.
Perique is the peppery taste that are tingling on my tongue.
Burley is the nuttiness flavor.
Orientals are the spice taste and smell. Not hot just spices.
Latakia is the campfire/smoker with a chicken in it taste and smell.
Cavendish is the slightest sweetness thick smoke and creamy feel of the smoke.
Deer tongue is that slight vanilla plant like taste.
Feel free to correct my mistakes.Â
Nothing dumb about that, all spot on.Â
i agree with you on everything, i would add the salty flavor that i find in some mixtures that has burley or perique, i dont know why but i feel in this way.
I would just add that Cavendish is actually a process and not a tobacco. It's a process where heat and pressure are applied to help sweeten the tobacco. With Burley tobacco, heat and pressure are used to instill sugar and flavorings such as vanilla, cherry, or any number of other familiar flavorings. With Virginia tobaccos, heat and pressure are used to bring out the natural sugars that are already inherent in the Virginia tobaccos. So when you think "cavendish," think sweetened tobacco.
