The Virginias provide a lot of tart and tangy citrus, grass, tart lemon, bread, sugar, wood, earth, light honey, spice, acidity and is fairly floral as the base of the blend. The sugary black cavendish also has a light toasty quality. It plays about the same level as the Virginias do. The creamy vanilla topping mildly sublimates the tobaccos. The strength is a couple of steps past the center of mild to medium. The taste just reaches the medium mark. The nic-hit is in the center of mild to medium. Won’t bite or get harsh, and barely has any rough edges. This is an easily broken apart crumble kake designed to suit your packing preference. It’s mildly moist, but I did not dry it. Burns very cool and clean at a slow pace. It’s richly creamy sweet with light floral, spicy, rugged notes, and has a very consistent fermented, punchy flavor that translates to the pleasantly lingering after taste, and room note. Leaves little moisture in the bowl, and requires some relights. It’s an all day smoke with some depth and body. Three and a half stars out of four.
