Schürch Unakit (Jak)
(3.00)
Whether you're a traditional English mixture veteran or a new comer, you'll appreciate this blend. It offers a one-of-a-kind taste and aroma. It's serious in taste and yet so naturally sweet. I personally believe it represents an innovative tobacco blending concept and approach.

This one sure tasted like the IRC Gourmet English I've smoked... Maybe even a bit like Rattray's Black Mallory. Like the aforementioned blends, this Schurch Unakit is a sweet tasting blend despite the Latakia which is not nearly as smoky as I had anticipated.
I only had a few pipefuls as this was gifted to me by a fellow tobaccoreviews.com member who wanted me to sample and then review it. He said it is the finest tobacco he's ever put in his pipe. I say he needs to get out of the house more. This stuff is okay, but a little rough around the edges. I suspect the Virginia element is not quite as top shelf as it should be. Perhaps less Virginia and more oriental leaf is what is needed to smooth out the over all presentation. That's just a guess as I'd be about as good a blender of tobaccos as I am at cooking. I tried boiling water once and under cooked it.
