Tinder Box Black Tie

Black Tie is Tinder Box's English-type blend exclusive to its own catalog. Cyprus Latakia comes forward, joined by Oriental leaves and flue-cured Virginia that set the blend's sweet, spicy foundation. No casing is used; the taste comes entirely from the leaves themselves. The smoke is smoky, leathery and salty; Virginia's sweetness balances Latakia's weight. Nicotine sits at a medium level.
