Retro-Grandpas

Retro-Grandpas is a Burley-based blend from Rich's Cigar Store, a nod to old-generation pipe tobaccos. The smoke opens with a dry sweetness, and as it progresses cocoa and cinnamon notes become clearer, turning into a lightly aromatic character.

The flavoring is kept light enough not to mask Burley's nutty body, which keeps the blend close to smokers familiar with the language of classic American drugstore tobaccos. Nicotine is medium, and it is sold in bulk at Rich's Portland stores.
