Initial light is sweet citrus virginia with a smokey latakia backdrop. I sense the burleys presence as a roundness to the virginia's. Then the nuttiness comes through and it mellows the sweet and smokey mix. Earthy reds heat up to meld with the melange and provide some tang and earth, while subtle perique starts to tingle the nose (to my taste). The cavendish never jumps out but is definitely felt as the blend delivers a full mouthfeel and caramel undertones. All the flavors realized by the first quarter of the bowl. Midbowl flavors have harmonized to basically smoked caramel covered peanuts. Towards the bottom of the bowl the sweetness subsides to the burley nuttiness with the latakia waxing and waning. Burns easily and requires few relights with attentive tamping. Medium to full in flavor. Medium strength with a long sour finish. No bite. Recommended if this description floats your boat. Happy Smoking
