Jack's Tobacco 11th Anniversary
(3.20)
To celebrate the 11th anniversary of Jack's Tobacco, we wanted to create a suitable sequel to our popular Tenth Anniversary blend to commemorate another milestone for the shop. We wanted to create a blend to satisfy the tastes of a broad spectrum of smokers who enjoy elegant and high quality tobaccos. We also wanted it even more smooth than our first anniversary blend, and wanted it to be a blend with both body and character. Finally, we wanted the components to be well-balanced to complement not only the base tobaccos, but also the other component tobaccos. I think we exceeded our objectives with this blend. In addition to even more smoothness, it is a cool, dry smoke in which no one tobacco misbehaves and none of the components over-extend their welcome. Consists of medium and moderately matured Virginia tobaccos for natural sweetness, Latakia and Turkish tobaccos for pungency, and perique to keep the peace throughout the bowl.

11th Anniversary by Jack?s Tobacco. In a word: Delicious. Scrumptious. Mouth-watering. OK, so it?s more than one word. We?ll call it multiple choice. I choose ?D ? All of the above? as my answer. 11th isn?t complex likke some blends that you have to concentrate on in order to really enjoy them. According to the man who blended it, it isn?t supposed to be. The goal was to have all the flavors meld into one delightful taste that stays with you for the duration. The goal was achieved.
The balance in 11th is superb. Instead of the different tobaccos competing for attention, they blend together and create a wonderful taste that gains a bit of strength as it goes, but stays quite predictable. I have noticed a Perique flourish at the end with most of the bowls I have smoked.
This isn't to say that 11th is monochromatic - it isn't. There is interplay with the various flavors, but it is smooth and very subtle. If you're smoking it while engrossed in a book or something, you may not even notice it. And if you don't notice it, no big deal. It's wonderful just taken as it is.
