Review: sweet and mild is the best way to describe this wonderful blend. tin aroma and look are very similar to robert mcconnell's scottish cake (same blending house ) with mild brown being a bit darker from the stoved virginia's. the aroma is also very scottish cake. like any VA, if you take your time with it you'll be rewarded with a semi sweet blend that, i don't know just cause the word honeydew is on the tin but, i can taste a faint honeydew taste, not the meat of the melon but more of the rind with hint's of chocolate and first class VA. mild brown smokes well right from the tin, mimimum drying time is needed, i let it sit for less then 10 minutes. cool and dry smoke when your taking your time and this is one of the few blends you can smoke all the way down without the last 1/3 of the bowl going bad on you.

Excellent review. Well written. I'm always open to try new and different tobacco. I'll have to order some via internet as my local B&M doesn't carry it. Thanks for the review!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
