Mostex - Stanislaw Danish Blend (Air Line Collection).
I bought this whilst on holiday in Majorca.
The appearance is very rugged, the pouch contains lots of different shapes and sizes, and covers a myriad of different colours: yellows, browns and blacks. For a factory sealed pouch the moisture content's disappointing, it's way too dry.
The only added flavouring I pick out is an extra sweetness, the rest is a natural tobacco taste. There's a nuttiness to the smoke but this doesn't arrive from a casing, it's the steadfast trait of a good Burley; I disagree with the current description of it only containing black Cavendish and Virginia. The Virginia's tamer than a lot, it doesn't give meadows full of sharp grass, but has a calmer 'bready/doughy' style. So, it tastes good, but the reduction to the rating hails from the mechanics: it burns hot, too fast, and bites; even with the gentlest of techniques it still bites.
Nicotine: I don't notice too much. Room-note: not 'great'.
Stanislaw Danish Blend? I recommend it for flavour but don't feel the same about the pragmatics of it. So, two stars seems fair:
At first I thought Amphora Full Aroma smoke. But it is harder and rougher than this. Liked me very much. I felt no artificial flavor. Bite tongue pretty hard if you hurry. He became one of my favorites!
When opening the pouch you are saturated with the scent of this tobacco. First it smells like Cadbury chocolate with nuts. It's really difficult to distinguish aromas here because the strong odor overwhelms the nose. The first smoke was surpringly soft with an aroma a little bit too strong and strange to deal with, at least the first time. As you smoke you tend to get used to it and this is a extremely cool smoke and will not bite you. As you smoke the bowl through it tends to become softer and sweeter in taste, almost tasting like butterscotch cookies with a pepper pinch. Not a bad tobacco at all for a change of pace. Big downside is you should dedicate one pipe for it as it will smell will take over your bowl forever.
