Stanwell HCA, I wasn't all that impressed with this Atalaya when I got it, but a little age has greatly improved the experience. Missed the Navy Cask on SP, but that's OK.

SPC Wildman @Amos_Umwhat i know this is a little late and long time coming regarding my experience with this tobacco. I thought it was just ok. Not one dominant flavor at the forefront. Taste was changing with every puff. It was confusing to say the least. Not bad. Not great. Just OK. I think if the right ingredient was added it might improve the flavor experience.
