The Smoker Legacy
(3.17)
Complex in its flavors, this blend includes five different Virginias, Latakia, perique, and a hint of Turkish. It is full flavored and slow burning, with a pleasant smooth result, much like the old English blends.

The Cyprian latakia is smoky, woody sweet, and while it's the most obvious component, it leaves room for the other tobaccos to have their say. The Oriental/Turkish is lightly floral, dry and woody, always in the background. The perique offers plum and pepper, and is slightly more noticeable than the Turkish. The five Virginias are slightly grassy, mildly earthy, and has some citrus and minor dark fruit notes. The nic-hit is just past the mild level. No chance of bite or harshness. The strength threshold falls a tad shy of being medium. A well balanced blend that burns at a reasonable rate; cool, smooth and mildly creamy with no harsh or dull spots. There is a hint of sweet topping that I can't identify, but it don't detract in an way. Smokes to a gray ash with hardly any moisture left in the bowl, and needs an average number of relights. Has a pleasant after taste. Not quite an all day smoke.

I disagree with the previous reviewer, I think this is a delicious blend that is well balanced and smokes well in every respect.

I would have to recommend this particular smoke. There is a very mild foretaste, almost undetectable, but halfway in there is a very delicious middle ground. Unfortunately, this blend has a very, very nasty aftertaste. Might want to bring some gum along. However, I have received numerous complements on how great it smells, so I suppose that is one good thing to say for it.
