Wilke No. 192

Wilke No. 192, in the maker's description, is a Burley-based blend built for all-day smoking. The brand's 190-number series generally centers on Wilke's own roasted black cavendish; 192, within that series, leans toward Burley's dry body rather than sweetness.

The Burley-forward structure gives the blend a character that burns cool, leaves no harshness on the tongue, and stays full in the mouth. Nicotine is at a medium level. It offers a middle option for smokers who find aromatics' sugar load heavy but don't want to lean into the tartness of fully unflavored Virginia blends either.
