BryGuy reviews Drew Estate 7th Avenue Blond

Date: 4/26/15
Tobacco: Drew Estate 7th Avenue Blond
Age: unknown
Blend Contents: Burley, Cavendish, Oriental/Turkish, Virginia
Pipe: MM cob
Tin Note: Sweet, very sweet. Vanilla
Prep: Straight from bag, twisted into bowl

Notes:
This tobacco smelled very sweet, almost cloying. It also had nice, big pieces of tobacco; which was interesting.
I wasn’t sure what to expect with the varied tobaccos in this blend, but once smoked I was surprised that it was not more complex.
There was definitely vanilla, and there was some slight smokiness; but that was about all I got apart from some sweetness.
I got no bite from this blend.

Not my favorite aro, but a nice experience overall.
