It is not a Lakeland but I understand why people sometimes call it that. It’s one of my favorite tobaccos. It does have a faint floral note but more like how Erinmore Flake has a floral note, some don’t even taste it. But it is a great example of an old English style tobacco. I fell in love with it because the sauce is mysterious and masterfully done. It’s meant to enhance the flavors of the tobacco, it’s a masterpiece to me and many, many pipe smokers have been enjoying the pleasures of it for well over a century, certainly worth a try, don’t ya think?
Suggestion, try a pouch of the Ready Rubbed, it’s no big loss if you don’t like it but a huge gain if you do. I have more St. Bruno in my cellar than any other tobacco. It only tends to ghost a pipe if you smoke it repeatedly in the same pipe, which is exactly what I do, I have 4 pipes dedicated to it.
