Unfortuanelly not a good pipe tobacco. Calling it English Mixture is a heresy. There is no latakia here whatsoever and hrdly some decn virginia as well. The base of this blend is a coarse cut burley topped by a casing that resembles matured condensed milk. Burns a bit hot tooo... Cannot recommend this.

poor, flat, and a bit stinky for some noses. Finamore has some nice tobaccos, specially to be used in home-made blends, but this specific one is pretty bad, made me feel like i was smoking not a pipe, but a cigarette... maybe i was in a bad luck and bought a specially dry and poor pouch, but i doubt so.

I just could'nt like this blend, the flavor was a bit too strong and it made me a little dizzy after smoking a bowl. I guess I don't like brazilian tobacco, since I also tried Finamore's extra mild cavendish and I still can't finish that one either (also too strong for my aromatic tastes). Not my kind of thing, but I'm sure that many may still find it a great mix, it's up to your tastes, so I'm not gonna say it's a bad quality tobacco, I just did'nt like it.

A really traditional drugstore brand. Has to exist a reason to face this tobacco for such many years, i cannot say i like it, either say that i don´t like. Considering its price and how easy is to find, become a option to fill your pipe with some smokable thing. IMO most of their blends tastes similar, the main flavour still the same, sometimes with or without a chocolate nuance, alcohol/liquor/floral, depend on the package. the pack by itself can be a problem, very similar in colours among the options so for the begginers might be hard to understand what u are buying. Apart from that, it has a really good room note, the smell in the pack seems floral/cocoa with some alcoholic like wisky or even cachaça (why not). Nicotine level is disappointing, it can burns hot and leaves ghosting in the pipe, easy to fill and keep it lit. Nothing special in it, i prefer the "chocolate alpino" version.
