This tobacco is the reason why I try different tobaccos, even when they are not always rated highly. I'm an English fan, and there are times where I don't want a "knock down, drag out" English, and this fits the bill. The aroma from the bag is very pleasant, and for my smoking profile, it's just the right moisture. Easily lit and the initial puffs are nice and easy, no bite with a natural sweetness. Not an overbearing room note like some English blends, and it burns continually without a lot of work. It's definitely an all day smoke and if you're new to pipes and want to venture to English blends I recommend it highly. If you're an experienced piper and just want a nice, mild and smooth English, this is it!

This is a very good mild English for first thing in the morning with a mug of Liptons tea. 302 has a light topping that does not get in the way of tobacco flavour. It's like a milder version of EMP match, also from Sutliff. The smoky Latakia is obvious in every puff but does not come close to overpowering the other tobaccos.
Interesting that other reviewers mention a touch of tongue-bite. Although I'm susceptible to my tongue getting nipped, I had no such problem with this blend. Must be a body chemistry thing. Mild & light on nicotine [which suits my needs]
Highly recommended for those who like a mild tasty morning tobacco. Would also be a gentle intro for beginners & those delving into English blends for the first time.
Very pleasant enjoyable stuff. 3.5 stars for what it is.
