The rich butter, cream and toasty nut toppings are the star attractions. The sharp nutty, earthy, woody, rugged notes from the white burley mildly peek through. I also notice a light tart and tangy citrus, mild grass and a moderate amount of floralness from the bright Virginia That floral quality is the most obvious aspect of the tobaccos. The burley black cavendish is mostly a holding agent for the toppings. The strength and taste levels almost reach the medium mark. The nic-hit is just past the center of mild to medium. Won’t bite or get harsh, and has few rough edges. Burns cool and clean at a reasonable rate with a very consistent sweet, nutty, mildly creamy, lightly toasty flavor that extends to the short lived, pleasant after taste. The room note is peasant, too. Barely leaves any dampness in the bowl, and requires an average number of relights. Can be all day smoke. Three stars.
The blend by Ken Byron is a very smooth and rich aromatic. With the main notes being creamy and woody and of coarse earth tones . The main tobaccos being Virginia and black burleys gives you the flavor . I found it to be a medium strength with mild to medium nicotine hit . Has no bite and little dry time . Leaves a pleasant room note and easily a all day smoke . Great tobacco for a new pipe smoker or advanced smoker . Give it 3 stars .
