Scandinavian Tobacco Group (STG) John Bull Fragrant English
(2.67)
Some people enjoy Latakia blends with a little something extra. That's the concept behind John Bull Fragrant English. This remarkable blend of silky black cavendish, hearty burley, and rich, smoky Cyprian Latakia is completed with a top note that works beautifully with the robust taste of the Latakia. The resulting blend has some sweetness behind the smoky profile while adding an aromatic note that makes the room note more pleasant. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but if the combination sounds intriguing to you, John Bull Fragrant English is a must try.

Lit easily, burned well, tasted good. Probably smelled okay but I'm rarely sure of that. I've had worse from far more prestigious and pricey brands.

Upon opening the pouch, I was a bit underwhelmed as i was expecting more of an english "punch in the face" of Latakia and oriental. Once I put my nose to the bag I found them both hiding in there with notes of chocolate and raisins. It was mild, but very pleasant. The tobacco was perfect at the moisture to pack right away. It took a light very well, and had zero relights. The smokey chocolate note came through very delicately. A very mild but sweet I guess you'd say "American English." Only reason I didn't give a 4 star, is I would like it to have more of a latakia presence.
