This is a very smooth, creamy, and mild tobacco that tastes great even if you smoke it down to the last bit. I like this tobacco best in a smaller bowl, because of its finer cut. It has a hint of Latakia and Oriental, but they do not overpower the Virginia, like most English and Oriental style tobaccos do. You can definitively taste the sweetness and creaminess of the Virginia. This tobacco is great for any time of the day because of its lightness. It is very good for beginners, or anyone who wants to get into those English blends like Dunhill Nightcap but want to start out with something lighter.
