It's a good tobacco to start. It has everything. It's not to moist, the room note is pleasant, doesn't bite, you can smoke it in whatever condition, doesn't "dirt" the pipe and the best it has an hint of latakia just to give you a taste of it.

One of the tobaccos I started with. It was good, had a very pleasant aroma and I could taste a myriad of things in it. Starting with sweet syrupy vanilla cream and ending with mold and smelly socks (in a good way, if you can imagine that).
It was definitely interesting.

This "classic delight" is a composition with a hint of latakia, light and reminiscent of autumn. Excellent in medium / small pipes, but not bad even in more capacious ones. Variety of type of leaves very well blended, good smell according to those who are close.

I'm not a Cavendish lover. I love Virginias, Burley and Latakia. So I make my own mixes using those as base. I don't use to like tobaccos that contain Cavendish, as the "Modern English Mixtures" that use Cavendish, as for example Dunhill 965. Also because my mouth and tongue don't deal well with it. So, when I bought this, it has been just a blind experiment...just because after many years I decided to test something new and different. And I've been very LUCKY! Because I loved it immediately. I smoke since 25 years, and I know my tastes. I have my many favorites, and it is a rare event when I find something new that I really like. Now this cheap leaves became one of my favourites, and for sure I will always have it in the pantry. Humidity is usually OK, it packs always well and lighting has never problem, smokes fresh and regular. It never bites, and doesn't let the bowl wet. I like also the evolution of smoke, not so complex but fulfilling, just some more sweet and aromatic when it starts, then became more "English" in the second part of the bowl, when the Latakia became more evident and intense. OK, it's not something to go crazy for, but it's really an honest, nice, cheap and easy smoke. I guess that many will not find the same qualities I see, but this is part of the game...this time the luck has be mine!
