Notorious reminds me of the excellent American English style tobaccos that were around in some NYC pipe shops many years ago. Back then, these American English tobaccos typically had a significant amount of Latakia along with a good dose of Burley. Virginias typically were present with some condimentals but in small amounts. If you're familar with Father Dempsey, you'll understand the style. Notorious is better than Dempsey in my view. Very rich, creamy taste, with a vague sweet note that you wouldn't associate with a topping. There is no inherent bite, and only a tiny rough spot here and there. That's what you expect with this style when done well. Although the Latakia dominates, Notorious can be smoked repeatedly during the day. A classic example of the American English style.
