Number 33 is long gone and I only ran across two tins of it. I did not know that K&K made this one for awhile. I also did not include in my notes whether my tins were English or German production. I sold one and smoked the other. It was many years old and unfortunately, bone dry as air had somehow gotten into the tin. I rehydrated the leaf and the smoke was satisfactory, but never gave me much depth. Semi-sweet in its presentation but really muted, probably because of the rehydrating.
