Bright CR is exactly as the name would imply, a light and bright Virginia blend. Comprised of Virginia strains from Brazil, Zimbabwe and Malawi are pressed and left to mature. The resulting tobacco carries all the distinct Virginia taste, from the sweet and grassy tones, to the slightly fruitier and woody flavours. The tobacco smokes cool and smooth if smoked with care and as with all tobaccos of this nature, will bite is mistreated.
While this tobacco is produced without any added flavours, it still has the slight distinct hint of Lakeland toppings. Due to the pungent nature of the Lakeland flavourings used at the Kendal factory, you usually pick up a faint on all lighter pure Virginia tobaccos. This slight Lakeland note quickly fades once the tobacco is burning and is a stunning example of a pure Virginia blend, at its best.
