Milan Tobacconists King's Ransom
(3.29)
King's Ransom is a traditional English blend from bygone days. Two types of Virginias, select burleys, Orientals, a generous portion of latakia, and a whisper of perique make up this bold blend. Considered medium-to-full bodied, King's Ransom has a rich latakia flavor, subtleties of nut, and just a hint of spicy sweetness on the finish.
Notes: Great for those who like the taste of Latakia.

This is a very “steaky” tobacco. It feels and tastes very substantial. Sort of “irony.” And that substantial, meaty, steaky, irony strength only grows as you get down the bowl. It burns alright, though you'll probably need a few relights. The flavor changes very little as you go down, but it does get stronger with each relight. Also, the smoke gets a little harsher with each relight, though not so harsh on the throat as I find Nightcap…just a bit more prickly on the tongue, but not out of bounds. The flavor's a bit too one dimensional, for me—I'd get bored with it if I had it very frequently. But it revs my appetite for steak, so I think it would make a great aperitif to a steak dinner.
