There's a natural sweetness from the Virginias that comes through even with the topping and the cavendishes vying for attention. I get some honey, oats and nutty notes, the latter coming from the burleys. The gold cavendish provides some slight citrus while the black cavendish adds a mild vanilla flavor that doesn't dominate. It's a mild aromatic, very smooth and creamy. Light on the nicotine, it burns well with no bite, no dottle and makes a very pleasant all day smoke that won't bore you. Nice after taste and room note, too.

Thanks for the write-up, Jim. You should know that, before I buy a blend that's new to me, I always check to see if you have a review on file. Always reliable -- as far as my reactions to a blend go, anyway. :clap:

Thank you for the kind words, Cortez. It's good knowing my reviews are of help to fellow pipe smokers.
