Charatan Eventide
(2.92)
A traditional richer, more thoughtful mixture to smoke as a nightcap in the evening. A subtle blend of the best American Leaf with Latakia and a small leafed Turkish matured by our blenders and specially processed for a slow, lasting smoke. Perique is added to enhance the bouquet.
Notes: A slow, long-lasting smoke contains Virginia, latakia and perique. A strong taste with a mild flavour. Similar to Dunhill Nightcap.

After trying Royal Escape I had hopes for this. I shouldn't of got my hopes up.
Even as a English Blend it's bog standard. Overshadowed by Squadron Leader, Skiff Mix, Ashton Artisan, Black Mallory. Weak in both strength and flavor, lacking in that nice heavy latakia. And very lacking in vitamin N, none of that relaxing feeling after a bowl like you got with nightcap.
At this point I'm done with even bothering with Charatan's offerings.
Update 14/6/19
I hate to throw tobacco away so it's been sat in a draw for the last 4 months. Decided to have a little bowl just to see if it's improved. Surprisingly it has, slightly. There's a quite pleasant dark chocolate/ cocoa note to the smoke and it's feeling a little richer for it.
I still wouldn't go out of my way to buy it but maybe it will evolve into something enjoyable in another 4 - 6 months.
