A seductive English tobacco mixture using the highest grades of leaf possible. The costly and varied oriental leaf lend their distinctive flavor to this blend, rich with smoky Cyprian Latakia, this full bodied blend finishes slightly sweet due to the addition of sugary top grade Virginias. |

| This has become my favorite English-type blend and yes, I've smoked many of them. It's smooth burning, easy to fill, light, etc. and remains dry in the chamber as it effortlessly burns down to a light gray ash. The flavor, however, is what gets me: full without being heavy; a mixture of tastebud-caressing citrus and virgina sweetness. More flavorful and savory than any latakia/oriental I've tried -- an unobtrusively enjoyable smoke that for me is the quintessential contemplative pipe experience for relaxing, reading, writing or just sitting alone out in the porch as the quiet dusk approaches. I usually smoke it in group 3 or 4 canadian or rhodesian.

| This is Nirvana! A delightful Latakia mixture which has a pleasant taste and an excellent "nose". I never had an opportunity to try Turkish black by Ed Burak but I was assured by Park Lane that it is an accurate copy. I really find this tobacco to be delicious and can't get enough of it!
