Cornell & Diehl Yorktown in the Morgan Bones Milan tonight, with a cup of iced coffee.
Yorktown is a really pleasant mix of grassy, citrusy bright Virginias and dark, earthy, leaf litter'y red Virginias; very similar to G.L. Pease Union Square. The neat thing about Yorktown though is that it comes in a ribbon cut and very dry right out of the tin, making it one of those rare pure Virginia blends where you don't need to rub out flakes or give it any dry time at all. Just pack and go! Great for smoking out and about, first thing in the morning when you're too groggy bother with rubbing out flakes, or when you don't have the time (or low enough indoor humidity) to let your tobacco dry on the counter before smoking.
Super convenient stuff, and a really top notch full-spectrum Virginia in terms of flavor! Very smooth and a good solid medium nicotine content too, with a pleasant room note like bread baking in the oven. If you like Virginias then Yorktown is an easy recommendation!
