Bennington Tobacconist No. 40 Erebus

No. 40 Erebus is Bennington Tobacconist's shop blend built entirely on Burley. Air-cured Kentucky Burleys are twice heat-fermented; this process takes off the leaf's harshness for a mellower smoke. Fermentation preserves Burley's typical dry, nutty, earthy taste while reducing sharpness. The maker states the blend doesn't bite the tongue and burns at a balanced pace.
