Mac Baren St. Bruno Ready Rubbed

St. Bruno Ready Rubbed is the rubbed-out version of the flake of the same name. Its contents rest on the same base as the flake: mild Virginia leaves, dark-fire-cured Kentucky, and the Lakeland-style floral-fruit topping. The difference is in the preparation stage; the slices are rubbed out before packaging. The rubbed-out structure lets the tobacco burn faster and a bit quicker, though the flake version's slowly unfolding development is shortened. In the taste profile, Kentucky's smoke and the topping's rose-geranium trace again sit side by side. Nicotine level is above medium.
