Composition: Virginia
Cut: Flake
Prince range: Medium
Pure Virginia is a blend of the best African and North American Virginias, with the special feature of being subjected to 2 cures: both fire-cured and air-cured!
This treatment causes the blend to offer a real explosion of aromas: yeast, bread, which amalgamate well with the roasting aroma of fire-cured Virginia.
Aromatic notes that make this Flake unique among pure Virginians on the market.
Being a Flake, its aromas are even more evident when it is crumbled, especially when smoked in a large-burner pipe, such as a Pot.
Very interesting is the varied aromatic palette, along with the long post-smoke persistence.
I consider it among the best Virginias on the market and would recommend it to those who usually smoke English Mixture, but intend to vary with a quality single-origin.
