Just got an email today from Smokingpipes.com on this new offering from MacBaren for the HH line. Anyone had a chance to try this one yet?
Here is the description given.....
Created especially with Virginia lovers in mind, Mac Baren's HH Pure Virginia combines multiple types of bright leaf, both air and flue-cured and aged for some time before beginning production. After being briefly hot pressed, the blend is transferred to a regular press to marry the flavors and form the fine, thin-cut flakes practically synonymous with the brand.
HH Pure Virginia is one of the most highly anticipated blends of the year. We tried it first at IPCPR, and we haven't put it down ever since. As Shane mentioned in his recent review, it's an extremely forgiving blend — providing the a variety of the subtle flavors associated with bright Virginias without any of the usual tongue bite. White pepper, caramel, grassiness, toastiness, citrus zest... it's extremely complex right out of the tin. Just imagine how the blend will progress after a few years.
There are Virginia blends, and then there are pure Virginia blends. Mac Baren's HH Pure Virginia is just that. Pure, unadulterated Virginia tobaccos, specifically designed for Virginia lovers, and available for all to try on the site now in 1.75 and 3.5oz. facings.
