Character and Smoking Experience

During smoking, this blend proves to be rather smooth and consistent. Retailer descriptions particularly highlight the even burn, ease of handling and an overall balanced character. In terms of flavour, the blend is described as classically aromatic: the tobacco character remains noticeable but is accompanied by a gentle aroma that rounds off the profile and makes it more pleasing. Depending on the source, the details regarding the raw tobaccos used and the aromatic notes vary slightly. Amongst others, Virginia is mentioned as the base, along with – depending on the retailer – Burley or Oriental tobacco. Descriptions of the flavouring also range from subtly sweet and slightly vanilla-like to warm, deeper notes. For a neutral product description, it can therefore be stated that: Borkum Riff Mixture Classic is a classic pipe tobacco with an approachable character, pleasant smoking qualities and a harmoniously rounded flavour profile. This makes it particularly appealing to smokers who prefer a blend described as traditional, available in a 50g pouch.
