Description
W.O. Larsen Avalon Mixture is a Danish-style aromatic pipe tobacco known for its extremely mild profile and unique infusion of red wine. Named after the mythical resting place of King Arthur, it is designed to provide a cool, fruity smoking experience without the typical spiciness of some Virginia blends.
Blend Profile and Flavor
This blend focuses on refined sweetness and a steady burn rate.
- Tobacco Components: The mixture is primarily composed of handpicked, deep red Virginia leaves from Africa and South America, balanced with a pinch of double-fermented Black Cavendish.
- Flavoring: It is refined by “swiveling” the wide-cut Virginia in red wine, which imparts a fruity, wine-like bouquet that does not mask the natural tobacco notes. Secondary flavorings include general fruit and citrus notes.
- Cut: It features a loose, coarse cut (breitschnitt) intended to create a slow and cool burn.
- Room Note: Generally rated as pleasant to tolerable, leaving behind a soft, fruity aroma
