An unusual blend of perique, Latakia & unsweetened black cavendish. A truly cool smoke with a flavor unlike any other.

Mellow, tasty and about the right strength for me. Burns well and easy to pack. A bit boring after awhile, but a very good smoke. One of CD best.imho. Cavendish in the forefront and the latakia hiding in the shadows.

This is a truly great tobacco. It busts outta all genre's. You have to try this. Sweet, smoky, tangy, and with a nicotine hit that makes you dizzy. No bite anywhere to be found. Enough with the balkans and english mixtures, this is my new favorite type of smoke. Butt kickin smoky buzz.

This is a blend that I have been wanting to try for some time now. Needless to say C&D blends are of high quality, and are easy to smoke. The appearance upon opening the tin is pure black flaked perfection. The aroma is heady, with a strong musty almost barn-like smell.
This blend is not for the faint of heart. Loving Latakia helps here in that it is almost as full as Old Ironsides with added Perique for a slight peppery flavor. Latakia in general has a low nicotine content, but this blend has a bit of a kick to it. I can see smoking it after a big meal, not on an empty stomach.
The flavor is Latakia right up front with the Perique making a nice compliment and a little cavendish to mellow things out. The smoke is fragrant, and enjoyable with large white plumes, assuming you like the smell of burning Latakia. Room note is tolerable to those around me, but probably best smoked outside, or in a well ventilated area. My Oreck air purifier does a nice job at ameliorating just about any tobacco smoke in my home office!
The taste is a very creamy, cool leathery taste with a gentle Perique aftertaste.
I would recommend this blend to anyone who loves Latakia, and wishes for a slightly stronger blend. It smokes cool all the way down to the bottom of the bowl with a dry,white ash.

Mississippi Mud scared my girlfriend out of the house. This was strange since she never once complained about any other tobacco. I really like this blend- epecially when I want to be alone.

Quite satisfying due to the high latakia content. It can get a bit harsh as I feel the cavendish doesn't sufficiently balance the rest of the tobacco. It prefers small bowls I think. I am not a fan of the unsweetened black cavendish C&D uses in any of their blends, it tastes like absolutely nothing. If they could find a different way to mellow the punch of the Latakia and Perique this blend would improve for me. It's still a enjoyable for the Perique and Latakia fan, so it gets an overall positive rating from me.
