Well, I struck out again with C&D. I've been trying Latakia blends latley that contain cavendish or added flavoring. After being a regular smoker of traditional English mixtures, usually sticking to Latakia/Viriginia blends, I discovered a few Latakia blends with Cavendish or added flavoring that I've enjoyed quite well. There is something in the two C&D Latakia blends I've tried (the other being Cross-Eyed-Cricket) that is of a medicinal quality. It is almost a background note of mothballs. I could not get beyond a few puffs of this blend before ejecting it from my pipe.

This blend has a unique flavor element that I can't quite describe, one that makes it interesting to smoke ... for the first 10 minutes. After that, the unique flavor becomes all that you can taste, in the same way that the ginger liqueur takes all of the attention in Two Friends Valle Cruces. If you fancy English blends, I would recommend that you give this a try, in a small amount, because this signature flavor might be exactly what you are looking for. For myself, however, this is too quirky for a long term relationship.
