This is a good tobacco for morning smoking, for pipe smoking begginers, and it seems to contain only a small ammount of Latakia. May be good for people that is curious about Latakia containing mixtures, but not can, at first time, to be submitted to the strong Latakia flavour. In the general tast and flavour the Oriental Tobacco totally surpasses the Latakia scent. May be considered good for smokers that enjoy Oriental Tobacco,but not so good for people experienced with the strong Latakia mixtures.

This a crossover blend for people that are just atarting to develop a taste for Latakia, it' easy to pack, and forgiving with over aggressive puffing, this blend contains the vanilla/cavendish taste that most boswell blends have, but is only noticeable towards the bottom of the bowl, the latakia is always on the background, overall it's kinda of a boring blend if you are not a aromatic smoker, very good quality if you are a aromatic smoker. Overall would I buy this again: NO, I already did my time in the aromatic department and this blend offers nothing that wants me to go back.

Better than Northwoods! More English in character with bigger body and complexity than NW (imo). This blend is still sweet and I’d consider it an aromatic English but if you’ve had 965 it’s pretty much a sweeter version of that.
Won’t have a place in my regular rotation but it’s a welcome treat in the wintertime. If you’re an English smoker considering Northwoods, be sure to pick up Countryside as well.

Boswell's is a wonderful Pennsylvania institution. While I wish I owned more of their pipes, I've been more than satisfied with the one I have.
Their blends are quite serviceable-a Boswell pipe and Boswell blends should be more than enough to satisfy most smokers.
However, there are better English blends out there. Nothing wrong with choosing to hang out in the countryside, but I'd rather range farther and wider when it comes to blends with which to stuff my Boswell.
