Musketeer

Musketeer is the Sillem's series' burley-forward aromatic blend, produced by Kohlhase & Kopp in Germany. According to records, the mixture is half cube-cut burley and half coarsely cut black cavendish; this structure gives both a dry, nutty base and a sweet counterpoint.

On the smoke, burley's earthy, snack-like, lightly spicy character leads; a baking-spice casing evoking cinnamon joins this base. Nicotine is more pronounced than in light aromatics, and the smoke is dry. Suited to smokers who enjoy measured, burley-based aromatics that are not overly syrupy.
