Rating: Recommended
Strength: Strong
Flavoring: Mild
Taste: Medium
Room Note: Very Strong

Review: Per gli amanti del toscano questo flake è veramente quello che ci vuole, gran corpo e abbastanza saziante con una leggera nota alcolica che sembra cognac. Il tabacco in questione è eccellente fra l‘altro come quasi tutti i capolavori di Cornell e Diehl.

Tobacco Classifications

Air-Cured: These tobaccos are dried naturally, sheltered from sunlight in large barns. The drying is carried out on the whole plant or as individual leaves. Sugar is the by-product of this three month drying process.
Dark Tobaccos: These tobacco plants are very mature and developed at the time of picking. The leaf is subjected to a second fermentation process. These leaves are used to make cigars.
Fire-Cured: Akin to Dark, its natural drying is completed by a wood-fired fumigation (oak is used by the traditionalists).
Sun-Cured: Almost all of Oriental Tobaccos are cured by this method. Oriental Tobaccos are grown in Greece, Turkey, Bulgaria and adjoining countries.
