Ashton Old Dog
(3.00)
A full English mixture dark with Cyprian latakia, spiced with fragrant Xanthia from Macedonia. It's liveliness is a result of the flue cured Virginia and jet black cavendish.
Notes: Discontinued blend, now reproposed by McClelland in their Ashton Revival Series.

Old Dog is one of the better English mixtures that is somewhat smokier than the run of the mill English. Like most tobaccos blended by McClelland, it needs a little drying to get the best burning qualities. It packs and burns well. While this is not really a regular in my rotation, it is a most satisfying blend and if I ran out of my regulars, this would fill in nicely.
