Arbo
Dutch tobacco made by Heupink & Bloemen
- Halfzware Shag
- Mild American
- Menthol
Both the Halfzware and Mild American seemed a bit on the crude side to me, not of the quality I expect for ~$24LB.

This blend was on sale & even though I have have my 'regulars' I've found over the years(McClintock Virginia & Peter Stockkebye Danish Export) I thought I would give it a try & tubing into an escort & silver tip light tubes via a premier supermatic I found it to taste like a typical Euro-American as it had a light halfzware taste to it-not bad! It no doubt is a base of the Arbo halfzware with a mild Virginia and/or some burley to 'water down' the full flavor of the typical halfzware shag; I'll use the tin up in time but I would rather continue to enjoy Drum or jester 'watered down' with some McClintock Virginia.

This is the bottom of the barrel as far as halfzware goes. I found it loaded with birdseye and harsh. Not in the same catagory as Drum, Chills/Sagamore, MacBaren, etc.

Bad tobacco. Very harsh with rizla,top,zigzag,twister,vera cruz tubes. Very hot burning. IMO=waste of money.
