Bernard Original Schmalzlerfranzl uses double-fermented Brazilian mangote tobacco with a medium-coarse grind and slightly moist texture. The blend has a dark brown colour and medium nicotine strength. Tasting notes include molasses, fig, dates, and chocolate, with smoky and natural tobacco notes.
The aroma combines dried fruit characteristics with sweet molasses and fermented tobacco. The moisture content prevents clumping while maintaining the character of this Austrian schmalzler style. The fermentation process contributes woody and nutty elements to the tobacco base.
