I have just made a start on my last remaining tin of this splendid blend, and what a delight it is! This particular batch was tinned exactly five years ago, and those years have led it to attain a rewarding smooth and sweet taste. It is gentle on the tongue and seductive to the tastebuds, leading the mind to contemplation and a sense of satisfied well-being.
This is tobacco to relax with, to dream dreams by, and I deeply lament the fact that it is no longer available. Perhaps one day, when Craig's Syrian ship comes in...

This is a great blend. The perique is just right. I enjoy this blend immensely. The acidic tanginess on the tongue from the perique is just enough to kick up this mild balkan. One of my favorites.

I really miss this blend. It was my all day smoke w/ my Big Ben Royal Silver 343, an easy pipe to carry in my mouth, could often find myself mindlessly puffing away while doing other things around the house. I would often fish for muskies in northern Wisconsin w/ this blend pleasantly occupying my time between bites.
The last of my stock now gone...
[you can hear the sounds of Taps being played gently in the background]

This is the first C&D blend I've smoked. I purched a nice calabash Ser Jacopo from my local tobacco shop and the owner tossed in an aged tin of this (from June 2000) out of his personal stock. My daily smoke is one I have made up locally of cavendish and Cyprian latikia bulks so the combination was not something new. However this was my first experience with Syrian Latikia and perique.
I was very pleased with this blend. The Syrian latikia was much lighter in taste and body than the Cyprian I am used to but it was very tasty. It blended well with the cavendish and the perique which came through the Latikia and cavendish very subtly after the first half of the bowl.
The flavor settled down the last half while remaining pleasently complex, mild, smooth and tasty. No tonge bite in this one at all. This is a simple and good all day smoke.

This was the first experience I have had with C&D. I have to say that is a very good one. I tend to like the Virginia and Perique blends so this is a little different for me but I love this blend! It is not overwhelmingly strong with Latakia, but you can still tell that it is there. This is a blend that could be smoked all day for sure. I finished my first tin of this and have had trouble finding it locally, so I ordered 4 more to let age just a while. Craig & Patty are great to deal with as well, they really take great care of you!!
