Karl Erik Private Blend No.12
(2.00)
Especially mild Black Cavendish, carefully hand selected and blended with high aromatic golden Virginias, rounded off with mild sweet and fruity top flavour. Variant cut. A well balanced mixture with a nice fragrance and wonderful smelling.

The Karl Erik blends came out a couple of decades ago and had a good following. The old Pipe Smoker's Ephemeris Magazines had one issue that had some "coming out" info on this one but I gave up on trying to find it after going through half a dozen back issues.
In any event, they were all Danish style blends with light Virginia and heavily fermented and moderately cased black Cavendish. Number 12 had a sort of figgish fruit casing, was light in the nic hit department and burned very clean and actually fairly dry for an aromatic. Kind of a typical (I've tasted this before), type of aro. The bright leaf in this one may mean it aged well, I just don't know as I smoked some of all the Erik tins fresh.
