Scandinavian Tobacco Group (STG) Sail Cavendish (Sail Aromatic)

This is an update post. I just smoked a couple of pouches of Troost Special and I really enjoyed it. With that in mind, I decided to venture for my favorite Dutch blend, Amphora Red. Turns out the one place you can obtain this stuff if you live in the States only takes PayPal. Since I re-introduced my pallette to Dutch blends I figured I'd give Sail Green another shot, beings I haven't had it in about 12 yrs. To my suprise it is still the best out of the Sail blends. Lightly aromatic, cool, smooth, satisfying, good tasting,and a pleasant room note. The Latakia peeks through here and there and is not present in the aroma, so don't go expecting a Penzance like aroma! The flavoring seems to be anise and cocoa. So I ordered a five pack! It's not Amphora Red but it's close to the green. It's better than Flying Dutchman or Sail Natural which I find too bland. The price is right too! I can't afford $40.00 a month for Sam Gawith Kendal Blends, which im tired of anyway. Troost Special and Sail Green hit the spot! Troost slices would be a real treat, but I think im going to be out of luck searching for that as well. I'll be sticking with Sail Green and Troost Special for a long time. Another Update!!! I just got an older batch of Sail Green from the British-American INC. era, and it's a lttle different than the new Orlik version. The Orlik version is actually better! The tobacco is moister, sweeter, richer, and has a better aroma. The B&A version is a bit drier, not much, just a tad, and the flavor is a bit less intense as well as the aroma. For once a company gets bought out by another and actually improves the product! Im Shocked!
