Germain's Mixture No. 7

When opening the tin, a pleasant aroma comes up, which goes in the direction of spicy with a dried plum note. A good starter tobacco for pipe novices.

The lighting and the burning is a little bit problematic at the beginning because of the humidity, you can prevent these problems by letting the tobacco breathe for 15 minutes to 30 minutes before putting it into the pipe. This way you get a pleasant smoking pleasure from the beginning. The tobacco is rather cool in the smoke, spicy, the scent of dried fruit is found in hints in the taste and supports the tobacco aroma in the further course of smoking with a slight sweetness.

The flavouring is restrained, the room note is not obtrusive. All in all, the Germain's Mixture No.7 is a quite successful, interestingly priced mixture. Especially for the natural smoker who craves a not too dominant sweetener from time to time.
