This has to be one of the finest English/Oriental blends ever! I had heard that the late Barry Levin had searched the world for the finest Oriental leaf he could purchase, and was able to receive a small batch of exotic leaf to produce a limited production of this blend. My tin was from the early 1990s and the flavor presentation was awesome. The Orientals were indeed cool, spicy and provided more depth of flavor than any Oriental leaf I could recall. The Latakia was smoky, sweet and powerful. And the Virginia flavor was ripe, rich and as deep as the ocean. Nothing compares.
