Manufacturer Description:
Precious blend in Cube Cut, matured several days under high pressure at low warmth in a Cavendish procedure, refined with different fruit extracts and Vanilla. Burns down slowly and coolly what provides an extraordinarily smoking pleasure.
Characterisation:
The Veermaster Navy Cube Cut comes in an long hinged lid box, which is somewhat reminiscent of a pencil case. Inside is a golden pouch, welded, rolled and sealed with an adhesive seal. Up to the first opening of the tobacco is so well packaged, then you should decant it in an airtight container. In addition, the tobacco is added a paper card on which the manufacturer explains the characteristics of the tobacco, and makes a recommendation for plugging. The cubes in the plastic bag are almost black, hard pressed and regular in shape, with an edge length of approximately 4x4mm. The tobacco smells like expected of one tobacco flavored with vanilla, but also a fruity sweetness of preserved cherries can clearly be smelled. The moisture content is due to the fixed pressure and the cubic shape difficult to estimate, but you should be able to stuff the tobacco immediately.
Plugging:
Due to its unusual shape the Veermaster Navy Cube Cut requires some attention when plugging. Are you giving the tobacco cubes - as recommended by the manufacturer - just in the pipe, it may happen that too much air remains between the cubes and no good puffing will occur. But if you grind some cubes and giving this in the pipe first, so you can fill it with cubes and finish with a few leftover crumbs, so that the flame quickly finds fuel.
Light up:
The Veermaster Navy Cube Cut should be very carefully ignited. After two or three flames and careful tamping it should burn evenly. Like in plugging also applies here: Practice makes perfect!
Smoking properties:
For a flavored tobacco the Veermaster Navy Cube Cut is amazingly tobacco genuine and smoky. It is advisable to keep the tobacco cool, otherwise makes a slight sharpness noticeable and the pipe starts gargling. Enjoyed cool it reveals next to the natural tobacco taste less the expected superficial vanilla flavors as a subtle sweetness, reminiscent of cherries. The burn appears to benefit from the unusual shape, it is yet very quiet and unobtrusive, and also the aroma adheres to the last third, thus offset the initial effort. Even cleaning still remains limited: something dark gray coarse ash and some condensate remains.
Redolency:
The redolency of Veermaster Navy Cube Cut is sweet and reminds non-smokers to "typical pipe fragrance", which is why it should not be bothersome in society.
Conclusion:
The Veermaster Navy Cube Cut tobacco is from the family of exotic Cube Cuts. The dark cubes in the noble hinge lid box wants to be given with attention into the pipe, ignited and smoked. But then an uncomplicated burn and a fine sweet cherry flavor does not overpower the tobaccos used but pleasantly accompanied, is luring experimental "sweet tooth". The tobacco is certainly not for by the way, but its exoticism excites and provides a long-lasting, aromatic smoking pleasure which experienced smokers will convince.
