Royal Bum
Name: Milan Appalachian Gold
Blend: Cavendish
Topping: Vanilla, chocolate and nuts
Smoked in: various cobs and a King's Cross briar
The cut is like the others, a coarse ribbon cut. Like the others it behaves as well as you could expect any tobacco to behave. It packs and smokes very well.
The quality of this tobacco is very good.
I find the flavor of this one to be fairly one dimensional. You get mostly vanilla. There are times when a creamy coco flavor is present but it is not at the forefront. There is no tobacco taste to speak of. You pretty much only taste the toppings.
While I found this one to be rather on the boring side when smoked by itself, I did enjoy it when mixed with Prince Albert. I mixed about 2 to 1 PA to Appalachian Gold and found it to be very nice tasting. The nuttiness of the PA with the vanilla sweetness of the Milan blend was how I preferred it.
Great room note. Smells wonderful.
