Summary: a moderate American English with little harmony between Burleys and Virginias.

The committee decided to expand best-seller "Old Joe Krantz" by making multiple versions of it, including an English, in the hopes of using the name to sell other stuff that was not selling as well under those names. This is a fairly uninspired English tobacco. A light dose of Latakia forms the dominant flavor, but the Burleys fail to meld well with the Virginias and Cavendish, leading to a somewhat flat and wet flavor with the Latakia filling in the gaps. I have no idea why someone would not simply purchase "Mountain Camp," which is similar but less busy, instead.
