Planta Pergamon
(1.90)
This is printed on the tin, in German Language (translated to English): Pipe tobacco which the gods love. This tobacco, a composition from the classic tobacco cultivable areas of the ancient world, spoils the palate of the pipe smoker on the most exquisite one. Noblest Virginia degrees, with hand-graded Oriental tobacco and twice fermented black cavendish, rounded with Greek wine and precious Middle Eastern spices. The result is this mild, tasteful mixture.

The worst Planta tobacco ive tried so far. The orientals are there, the wine is there but soon youll discover, as a colleague pointed before, that you are smoking some sort of marine monstruosity. It left your palate full of salt, this is so strange. Anyway dont you bother on get this one

This certainly is one of the most hated Planta blends. You either like it or you are positively repulsed by it, with no middle ground as it seems.
Presentation, tin note and tobaccos used all are excellent. Also this blend is easy to pack and easy to be kept lit.
The taste is of some very undefined kitchen spice with alcohol plus an extremely nasty by taste that is hard to describe. I'd say the salt/seaweed comparisons of earlier reviewers are not far from the truth.
Aftertaste is nasty. Room note is nice.
I do not at all recommend this blend. Stay clear of it as there are no benefits to this blend except maybe for the empty tin, which you can just order at Planta i am sure.

For those who like vomiting, this is the one for you! I don't understand how this blend was made for production, it is the WORST ever tobacco of my life! And the taste is...salt...and cosmetic sea weeds... Were is the oriental tobacco that company promised? What do they think we are? I waited 2 days for my pipes to get off this awful smell. I thought there was a crazy old lady coming from a cosmetic shop in my pipe... What a disaster!

I did never testes a tobacco that tasted so bad, It tasted like salt!. I dont know really how did they came with such a taste.
It was so unbearable that I was to empty my bowl.
I will leave it to get some air and I will come back to see the salty, irritating taste will disappear.
