It is surprisingly mild in flavor. It it slightly itchy on the throat though, and if the leaves are darker then it is also a bit spicy
. Otherwise I find a hint of incense, nutty sweetness.
It does not burn very well, so mixed with another tobacco the burn characteristics improve. I have not experimented much with mixing, but mixed with an aromatic like Crème Brûlée it works very well. I plan to mix with other tobacco in the future to see how it does.
I don’t know if it is my batch, but I don’t feel the Nicotine too much. In comparison Gawith Hoggarth Dark Birds Eye seems stronger to me.
Or the Nicotine may be subtle and effect is slightly different than burley/DFK
