I picked up some of this weed more than a year ago and for whatever reason I wasn’t all that fond of it. I came across it this weekend in the cellar and I’m so glad I didn’t toss it out. Given the fact that this is mainly a Burley blend, I doubt the time in the cellar added much to the quality. This is a fine tobacco. It is an aromatic, but the burley flavor is forward, well ahead of the casing. The perique lends a nice light spice to the mix, but those that are not fond of perique shouldn’t worry as it’s added with a light hand. This blend is only mildly sweet and there is plenty of tobacco flavor to be had. It burns nice and dry and could be an all day smoke for Burley lovers and those that enjoy light aromatics without Cavendish. If you are looking for a “full on†American style aromatic, you may want to seek out other maple blends. Highly Recommended
