Blatter & Blatter London
(2.50)
This is a unique blend of a mild aromatic tobacco with a hint of English flavor. A little latakia makes this blend very flavorful. Mild and slow burning.

The first pouch I smoked, I enjoyed this mixture very much. Despite the moisture content that was too high - you just let the tobacco dry out longer before smoking-, I enjoyed this aromatic that had a constant undertone of Latakia that brought an interesting addition to it.
The second pouch I smoked, it tasted weird and bite like crazy despite the mixture being dark. I just don't know what happened!
I might give it a third shot next time I have the pleasure to travel to Montréal and update my impressions...

This, from all the house blends that I've tried from Blatter, was a sincere try, but it quite didn't hit the spot. I've tried twice, to make sure, but draw the same conclusion.
The bakkie is on the dark side, medium in length and width, with a little hint of Latakia in the background.
The lighting was a bit exteneous, I believe the moisture level was a bit high at first, but it remained the same after a couple weeks. i came to the understanding that it was a bit overcased, which the way that my taste buds reacted confirmed.
It had a tendancy on wetting the pipe too.
Ah well, can't win 'em all!

This is a very dark and somewhat aromatic blend. Throughout the bowl, the flavor changes. Sometimes, I notice the Cavendish, sometimes the Latakia, sometimes the Virginias or Orientals. It burns clean, dry, and leaves a fine ash. The room aroma is a blend of Latakia and aromatic Black Cavendish. It is quite sweet tasting and there is a mild hint of the same flavor in Blatter's Private Reserve. Since I normally do not turn to aromatics, I seldom smoke this straight. However, when one of my stronger English Blends becomes too overbearing for me, I add a pinch of London to it. That balances everything to a friendlier taste and a better room aroma. Mixture 965 with a pinch of London becomes a very interesting mix. I would only recommend this as a straight smoke to those that are torn between aromatics and English blends. London is definitely an English blend with aromatic overtures.
