Vinland - House Blend by Smoky Vale

The old sagas tell of a green and distant land discovered beyond the western sea. Vinland captures that sense of abundance in an indulgent aromatic mixture filled with dark chocolate, ripe Concord grape, and warm, mead-like sweetness.

The bag offers an immediate marriage of deep cocoa and dark grape. Those flavors remain distinct in the bowl: bittersweet chocolate grounds the mixture while juicy Concord grape provides a rich, vinous sweetness. A slight breadiness rounds the aroma and gives the blend a satisfying warmth. The smooth retrohale carries sweet grape across the palate, recalling a fine chocolate mead enjoyed after a long voyage.

Released for the River Valley Viking Festival and available only at Smoky Vale Pipe Tobacco.
