The tobacco has aromas of black pepper and leather. After you light it, it há so very light leather flavors. Low body, low to medium bitterness and low sweetness. At the end very light flavors. Recommend for begginers.
A mild English blend. The first few puffs are enjoyable, with Orientals on front and Virginias and Latakia in the background. After 1/4 of the bowl it becomes rather flat and dull, but it would still make a decent early smoke if it wasn't for tongue bite. I would give it 2 starts, but I can't recommend this not even "somewhat" with EMP and other higher quality blends that share the price range.
Nice surprise found when first tasted this tobacco, since I'm not a very old smoker i wont make a large description. I use to smoke Squadron Leader from SG and someone recommended me this this Nr.1 Blend in replacement of the Dunhill Early Morning pipe, well this is milder than SL and with a better aftertaste, very pleasant room note, just like those nice smell that you smell when someone else is smoking, a good all day smoke!. If you smoke slowly it wont bite and wont overheat the bowl, be careful be calm or it will bite you!. Almost no re-lights. Highly recommended for newbies and for those who want to transition from aros to an English Mix. Give it a try!
Edited (04/01/10), after trying several brands, this tobacco does not worth what you pay for!, bites a lot, and flavor is nothing to compare with Early Morning.
