This blend is comprised of small coins and lose, stringy ribbons. I recommend letting them air dry for approximately 15 minutes. The tin note smells like raisins and figs. I filled the bowl by packing the loose strands between the coins. Upon lighting, I sense citrus, raisins, figs, traces of wood, something sweet (maybe molasses?) and nuts . Throughout the smoke, it’s savory sweet and moderately spicy. At times, it’s mouthwateringly sour. It burns at a moderate rate, and is not harsh. I’ve smoked about an ounce in various size/shaped briars, and all are favorable. The nicotine level is almost medium. It’s more than medium in body/taste. Director’s Cut is essentially a very robust VaPer, due to the burley and Kentucky tobaccos. If you enjoy stronger VaPer blends, I highly recommend it.

Good review, Sam. Took me awhile to adjust to it, being stronger than my usual choices. Just a few bowls left, but enjoying them more than I did at the start. I would clarify that while it is somewhat strong, it does not induce the spins.

Excellent review Sam, I’ve smoked a few bowls in my time and enjoyed the blend. Definitely not for a newbie unless your also a cigar smoker of those “ air benders “! If you know what to do this blend is still available 👌👍. I have 2 pint size jars cellared, that’s enough for me!! I don’t care for the sourness in any blend.

Sounds like something I'd like. Where did you purchase it? I don’t care for the sourness in any blend. Is Directors Cut overly sour? |

Nope, more Burley in Director’s cut......in this order the blend is made.......Burley, Kentucky, Perique, Virginia. Some Virginia’s can be overly sour to my taste if not aged a few years, in this blend Virginia is the last component, means a lower percentage in the blend👍👍
