Green & Indigo

Green & Indigo is a mixture in the Denmark-based Stanwell brand's aromatic line, matching the color pair in its name with a fruit selection. Its base is a balanced black cavendish, joined by pressed and fermented ready-rubbed Virginia and burley along with light-colored wildcut Virginia leaves. The blend is presented in a 40-gram pouch and a 50-gram tin; Stanwell tobaccos are today produced under the Scandinavian Tobacco Group.

Flavoring runs along blackcurrant and fresh apple; while the topping dose is pronounced, nicotine strength stays modest since the leaf base is kept light. In the maker's classification, flavor intensity is given as two-fifths, while aroma dose and room note are given as three-fifths. A suitable option for smokers who enjoy the fruity aromatic idiom but want to steer clear of a heavy vanilla-and-sugar load; the easy-lighting mixture cut means the pipe doesn't need frequent relighting.
