Superb Virginias are matured and fermented with heat and pressure in a Cavendish manner, but the slices are fully rubbed out for ease of packing. It exhibits a natural sweetness, with tangy hints of citrus, and a nice depth.
good but not great; burns hot quickly if you puff aggressively and half-way through the bowl begins to taste slightly harsh. I'll be blending mine. I've noticed over the years a decline in Virginia tobacco-quality, probably because the grading-system is lacking and Virginia tobacco is now grown everywhere but Virginia, examples: India, Africa, Mexico and Indonesia.

I am a fool to write this.
Even ants lie about their secret stash of food.
This fine recipe should be reserved for those lamenting a most distinguished " changing of the guard" as in Mc Clelland , the queen of mastering everything virginia, is in retirement. Not too sweet, cool, flavorful, naturally nutty , and clean free of any adulterating additives.
