Savinelli The Balkans
(3.50)
Black Cavendish, Latakia and a generous serving of exotic oriental tobacco. Spicy and at the same time flowery thanks to a small amount of various Virginias.

It's not a bad blend just a little bit bland. It comes cut in fine ribbons with the right moisture to get going. Tin Aroma is smoky as the Latakia smell dominates.
It lights fairly easily and smokes well but I find there's a lot of (unflavoured) Black Cavendish here to make an interesting blend. Latakia is also present but I do not think I can sense the Orientals. Strength is on the mild side of medium as is nicotine and room aroma rather innocuous, as is the blend overall. A mild English blend which is not bad but not very interesting either.
-- Time in the jar seems to have done good for this blend. It tastes much better now. A Black Cavendish enhanced English. Three stars after jarring.
