I am not sure if this blend is still produced and my review is based on only a large sample, so take it for what it's worth. English Atmosphere is a flavorful "Englishish" with some additional sweetness that I am sure has been manually added, along with what I believe to be a touch of vanilla. In the true sense of we would call an "aromatic" in today's terms (rather than the true meaning of aromatic from days gone by) it's not bad. It is easy to pack and burns cleanly. The aroma is wonderful. The smoke was interesting for the first couple of bowls, but quickly became less interesting as I moved beyond that. Lovers of this old blend can find a very similar smoke in 4 Noggins' "Britt's Balkan," and I find Britt's to be a better blend.
