| Well, I prefer King George to this tobacco, though they are very similar. In Garrick I miss the Orientals. No bad tobacco, but a bit "flat". BigBadWolf.

| Another great creation by Paul Olsen in the "My Own Blend" series! It has been among my regular blends of choice for quite some time now! Having learnt from other people's reviews about so many good mixtures I felt it was high time I shared "Garrick" with others like me, who are constantly in pursuit of a great smoking experience.
What you get in "Garrick" is a steady, beautifully balanced, and unfailingly present rich treat to both flavour and taste! It burns easy and nice, quickly develops into a full bodied yet delicate presence for both you and those around you. You may be sure it will remain with you as a good companion to conversation or a moment of quiet and peace.
I prefer it in a mid-sized Savinelli "Champagne" and always keep a tin within reach. Try it. You will not regret it! Enjoy.

| Mild and sweet English type blend. Very easy to pack and light. Keeps lit without effort. Smokes cooly all the way to the bottom of the pipe. No bite whatsoever. A good blend for those wanting to try a Latakia blend but reluctant of their usual punch.

| A good starting point to the english blends, though not a real classic english. It's very easy to pack and light, and the smoke proceeds evenly. The cavendish gives a sweet tone, no bite at all, and the nicotine punch is really low. A good one, though not fantastic.

| A nice, mild tobacco made by Paul Olsen's eminent tobacco specialist Michael Mortensen. made after an English reciept, this tobacco contains Latakia, Perique, Cavendish, Kentucky, and Virginia. A nice, mild tobacco for the smoker, who wants to start smokin the "traditional" English mixtures.
