The tin note offers a tart fruit aroma, similar to wine, with a subtle smoky undertone. The tobacco has a ribbon cut with brown, light brown, and a small amount of black leaves. The moisture level is decent, though drying might enhance the experience, but it performs well without any extra preparation. It burns at an average pace with minimal need for relights. The strength is medium, and the nicotine level is mild. No noticeable flavoring. The taste is medium-bodied and consistent, featuring smoky, citrus, woody notes with a hint of nuttiness, some stewed fruit, and a slightly spicy retrohale. Virginia takes the lead, with Burley in a supporting role, while Maryland and Latakia provide background complexity. The room note is tolerable, and the aftertaste is excellent.
