This is so much better than I expected. Smooth, not too strong or weak. Very pleased with it.

Après avoir goûter son frer "Ruby" que j'avais bien aimer, je me suis laissez tenter par l'original que je trouve encore meilleure, avec son petit goût cafer, vaniller, chocolat entre l'aromatique et le naturel, très belle decouverte, je revient régulièrement sur ce tabac. Je conseille fortement...Read More

My Grandpa used to smoke this, when I started smoking I wanted to try it. I will buy the other flavors with time. This one though was really enjoyable. Fruity and chocolatey notes, low nicotine (which if you don't like, add some Five Brothers in it! I wish I did!) It's enjoyable! It's classic! I'll get this again sometime in the future....Read More

The BR TV ads of the 70's (when I was a teenager) made me want to smoke a pipe. Lovely Swedish girls filing and lighting your pipe.....

I could taste the fruit flavor. Like a sour plum in a good way. It does get hot though, there is some steam at times. Dry it out a little.
nice change of pace

Pouch notes of strong vanilla and mild chocolate liquor. Tobacco cut is mostly shag with a little fatter ribbons mixed in. Further it looks like 3 different leaves of mostly medium brown and a smaller amount of black and tan. Tobacco is soft, no prep needed. Burns is moderate with few relights. The strength is mild and nic is mild. Flavoring is mild, with notes of vanilla that continues to wane as I smoke it. Taste is mild and consistent, with notes of spicy, very woody, mild sweet grass, dry earth, toasted slightly bitter nut, a mild lemony background note, and a very peppery retro. Burley is leading with Virginia and Cavendish supporting. Room note is pleasant, and aftertaste is good....Read More
