Inspired by a post monbla made earlier, I recieved a tin of Santee with my last Smokingpipes order. At first bowl, I was pleasantly reminded of a long forgotten Tinder Box blend I enjoyed years ago but I didn't quite get the taste monbla described. I say at first.
Well, after a few bowls, I'm happy to report the flavors of Santee have come through in my gourd calabash as the gourd tames the biteyness and harshness that I seem to experience with Virginias. I get that sweet Virginia taste with hints of apple in the background. A very nice tobacco. Have been enjoying it with Stash Licorice Spice tea and they make a great combo. A nice switch from my usual Balkans and nic bombs.
