Now , IRC has 3 Non aro blends that are similar but different . Private , International and Affinity . Id have to revisit them again , and Id love to , but the differences are the amounts of basically the same components . I think International is more oriental and Affinity more virginia [ each comparing to Private ] but Im not 100 percent as its now been a while since Ive had the other two . They are each good though I prefer the Private
Its winter and if your mood for Oriental or lat is peaked ... IRC Royal is so damn good . When Dunhill quit making Standard Medium back then , I switched to Royal ... not because its the same but because it was as good or better in a different way . What a wonderful flavor / aroma / smooth
Their Kings oriental is misleading as its flavored with cinnamon or nutmeg and if you dont know that it would be a surprising thing like it was to me
IRC Three Star PRIVATE Blend . Balanced

From IRCs site: "Beautifully balanced, Affinity is blended using a generous base of Virginia and White Burley. Small amounts of Latakia, Perique and Turkish gives this non-aromatic tobacco just the right amount of flavor and yet keeps it in the mellow range." Sounds excellent.
