Merging the Old World with the New, Sansepolcro is a very special entry into the Small Batch project — carefully blended from unique, Italian Dark-Fired leaf and some of the finest Red Virginias from North Carolina.
Aromatically spicy with earthy, clove-like undertones, this Italian Dark-Fired leaf is grown in the Sansepolcro region of Italy, which boasts a history and tradition of tobacco cultivation to the 17th century. Combined with mellow citrus and bread-like notes of the reds, it makes for a wonderful melange of flavors and aromas — at once both familiar and exotic.
Only 6,000 units were produced in this limited, Small Batch run.

Mmmmmm
Boy am I glad I snagged a couple of tins. Wish I had gotten more to be honest. As this is my first C&D small batch I've purchased. I must say I am thoroughly impressed. Gorgeous, rich and delicious. Tangy, spicy, malty, smooth, bold and a slight harshness that I absolutely adore and suspect is the IDF. Nom nom.
