Time to start the ball rolling.
Nice understated Va. blend. This is a couple of years old, nice color variations to the Va.'s with some dark ribbons (Burley, I guess) spaced through the mix. Nice moisture content, packed well. Lights up nice, got a very heavy twang, almost like a perique hit, on the initial light that went away almost as fast as it appeared. Nice sweet lemony clean Va taste at half bowl. has a nice body to it, a little more umph than some straight Va.'s. Sweetness picking up as I smoke it down a little more. Getting a little more of the creaminess as I get close to wrapping this up. Overall a very pleasant Va. lots of subtle complex flavors ghosting around the palate.
