As the tin says, "seut un' sacht" (sweet and soft), this is a very nice pure Virginia that is sweet and soft on the palate. It would taste even better if aged for a year or so. It comes in the tin with the right amount of moistness, rubs out easily, and burns well. This is a well behaved tasty tobacco that would make an excellent all-day smoke. If you like Virginias it's well worth giving this one a try!
