As much as I have been enjoying C&D's "Sun Bear Black Locust (2024)", virginia-based blends tend to bite me (they just don't agree with my mouth chemistry, though Sun Bear isn't as bitey as others for me), so I decided to pop my tin of "Dusk" to smoke every other day to give my tongue a break (though yes, I realize this is also VA-based, but it's heavily enough cut with burley to prevent bite for me, I hope).
I was sure from the description that I would like this, but I didn't anticipate how much I would like it. There's a subtle woody-sweetness like black coffee when you get the ratio just perfect (I mean that kind of sweetness, not that it tastes like coffee). Flavor profile to me is similar to if C&D OJK was VA-based rather than burley.
