ThePipeRoom.com Sherlock's Reserve
(3.17)
Sherlock Holmes kept his tobacco in the toe of a Persian slipper. Could it be that he had a particularly special reserve hidden away among his dusty old books where only he would know? This full English blend is both strong and rich with Latakia, yet smooth and full just the way Holmes liked it.

It has a rich flavor and unlike the blend called Sherlock Holmes, I think Sherlock might of liked this one. Nice rich tobacco flavor with some depth. This is a English style blend with little or no casing except a vaguely unknown alcohol scent. I will have to make the drive to buy this again. The latakia really was at just the right strength. I think there might be some other things in here besides the virginia but not enough to made the smoke into a mess. It was a very moist blend at first but dried to a perfect level after awhile, which supported my alcohol topping theory. I give it four stars for being a good smoke for the folks who like a real tobacco taste.
