Hearth & Home Larry's Blend

(3.51)

Larry Loerzel, one of our regular store customers, and connoisseur of English/Balkan blends had tried Ten to Midnight, and although he liked it, he was looking for something a little fuller and different. Based on his preference, we blended a full, traditional Balkan using Orientals that were more buttery and amped up the latakia. This blend is now a big hit among our full bodied English fans; a cool-smoking, very rich mixture.

This is a grassy Virginia with a very sour variety of orientials, and a smattering of Latakia. The Virginia is sharp and grassy. The orientals are forward and very sour and produce a zippo lighter fluid kind of taste. The Latakia produces an ash flavor that kicks in a couple minutes after first light. Almost every draw, I get this blast of sour ash. Very unpleasant. There were also some bits of black, rock hard tobacco in my sample. I personally wouldn’t consider this a Balkan. I guess it’s technically an English. I call it an Odd Duck.
