Gallaher Limited Condor Ready Rubbed (Green)
(3.06)
The special distinction of Condor pipe tobaccos lies in their superb flavour. Being pressed tobaccos, their taste, aroma and strength are in that perfect harmony so much appreciated by the most knowledgeable of smokers.
Condor ready rubbed, Britain's most popular pipe tobacco. After pressing and slicing, the tobacco is rubbed-out to a perfect density, ready for filling the pipe.
Notes: (The description above doesn't normally appear on single packets of Condor, this is from a multi pack box of five 50 grams packets.)
This was made in Ireland for many years, it is now made in Poland.

i tried this tobacco many years ago and iam glad i didnt review it as my knowledge of tobacco and taste variation was concluded to captain black..not to say i am an english tobacco smoker as i went back to aromatics with arms wide open but i tried my share of non aromatics and this tobacco has improved to my personal rating much more. easy packed and hold the fire very well, mellow and no tongue bite of any kind, strong in the nic department and have a lakeland soapy incence smell and flavor to it, the room note is not some thing that you would please your surrounding with (hell even i didnt like it) but all an all its a very nice otc blend..could use some drying though. to my tatse i found this tobacco to earn its righteous place with a cup of earl gray tea (very complementing taste-wise).

When I first tried Condor, I hated it. This seems to be a common reaction! The soapy, hairspray smell of the unlit tobacco was fairly repellant. I tried again some years later however, and I'm glad I did. I smoke this in an unfiltered Falcon. It packs extremely easily, is easy to keep lit and gives a pleasant but not overpowering nicotine hit.No tongue burn, ever. The soapiness is just noticeable in the taste of the smoke, but not in an unpleasant way. I love the dense texture of the smoke this stuff produces; very cigar like! I would smoke this more, but the room note is very strong and not at all pleasant, so I'm confined to the garage with this one.

Fresh tobacco smell after floral essence. No chance to taste tobacco even after light. You can find earthiness some kind of fruits some floral topping and I even taste something like mushrooms. Tobacco was too dry to pack immediately. You need to dry it at least one hour. After that still need to be relighted several times.
I enjoyed smoke it, taste was interesting. Definitely worth to try. Maybe it is not for everybody, but for lakeland lovers a must choice.
