McClelland Black Sea Sokhoum

Black Sea Sokhoum belongs to McClelland's Grand Orientals series, which spotlights individual Oriental tobaccos. The blend's core is Samsun-origin leaf grown on Georgia's Black Sea coast, joined by Virginia carrying McClelland's characteristic tangy-sweet aroma. It's ribbon cut. The tin aroma carries a pronounced cigarette-tobacco smell alongside the sweet-tart ferment; this character is reflected in the taste too. Virginia's sweetness balances the Oriental tobacco's exotic, spicy side, and flavor intensity reaches its peak toward the middle of the bowl.
