I find this blend to be more sharp/spicey/rough than sweet and very one dimensional with little change throughout the bowl, perhaps loosing a bit of the initial sharpness/roughness that comes through initial lighting. An unremarkable smoke that is perfect for a smoke you don't want to think about and pick out flavor profiles or complexities. Very light even whispy in flavor, more of a hay note with no grass detected. A good entry level VA. It will burn hot if you tork on your puffing so slow and easy is the way to go. I prefer a tall narrow bowl. Very low in Nicotine, burns to a white ash with little moisture in the bowl. Could be an all day smoke. Would I purchase again? Probably not, theres many better VA's at the same pricepoint.
