If you are looking for a variation of McClelland's Frog Morton, Clan Shaw's Mountain is for you. This falls within the "sweet English" blend category for me. It smells great, even to Latakia-haters. It exhibits a near-perfect blend of sweet, smoky, salty and toasty flavors. It is bite-free, even when doing yard work. A perfect party smoke when you don't want to offend or smoke a weak-tasting aromatic. While it is a bit lighter in flavor than I prefer, adding a touch of Perique or rope tobacco brings it to a perfect level. I buy this by the pound. Lights and burns effortlessly, leaving only a light gray ash.
Update: This is lighter in Latakia than 5100 & the Frog's. Slightly more aromatic, in a delicious way.
