| Not my favorite fron Jon's, but the kind of thing you could smoke as 'your blend'. Consistently good due to hand mixing in the store, sometimes it can even be excellent depending on what was in stock to use.

| This is my favorite English blend from a great B&M pipe shop -- smokey and strong, with rich latakia flavor nicely balanced with sweet virginia. It's comparable to one of my other favorite blends, SG's Commonwealth -- but it is much better, in my opinion; sweeter, smoother and more complex. A must-try for latakia lovers!

| If Jon's has a flagship blend, this is it. Although a full English blend containing 50% latakia, Smoking Mixture is palatable enough that it can be smoked everyday. It has a round and creamy flavor that is positively addictive.
The interesting thing about Smoking Mixture is that it's always changing. Jon's adheres to the same formula from batch to batch, but they're constantly acquiring and using different types of leaf. At one point a couple of years ago, Smoking Mixture was made from aged thirty-year-old leaf that once belonged to Milt Sherman!
All in all, an excellent blend from a classic American pipe shop.
