4Noggins Bread Loaf

Bread Loaf is one of 4noggins' Oriental-forward blends. Per the manufacturer's recipe, alongside the Oriental leaf the composition includes some cigar leaf, Virginia, Burley, and just enough Latakia to lend a hint of smoke. The name references Vermont's Bread Loaf area, continuing 4noggins' tradition, as with most of its house blends, of local naming. The tangy, spicy character of the Oriental leaf forms the blend's main axis, the cigar leaf adds earthy depth, and the very small amount of Latakia leaves a thin line of smoke in the background. Nicotine is moderate, and the maker notes the blend does not bite the tongue.
