just purchased 50g tin of staved-aged virginia 35 ribbon. the odor from the tin is somewhat sweet, you smell bourbon and i guess some wood. i have only had 2 bowls so far. the tobac is moist but smoked well right out of the tin,i need to smoke more of this tobac tobe fair. it smoke all the down to the heel. i like the idea of using charred white oak borboun barrel for the added falvoring. i do not think you would call this and aromatic either. i will try to review this after i have smoked the intire contents of the 50g tin. i did enjoy the first 2 bowls.
take care.
mike.
