After reading some reviews on the website, I ordered some of this tobacco. I really have enjoyed it. I believe it could be an all day smoke. I've smoked it on the way to work in the morning along with a big mug of coffee. When I get to work I'm ready to go. I've smoked 8 or 10 bowls of this so far and just ordered another 8 oz. for the future. Really enjoyed smoking it over the 4th of July while fishing in a country farm pond. Didn't catch many fish, but sure enjoyed the smokey campfire flavor of this tobacco. I'm just a novice smoker, but I'm really enjoying this Latakia blend. Pick up some soon and give it a try.

Wonderful blend, perfectly balanced, full, round, with a sweet mellowness that makes the smoke very nice.
For lovers of the mixture, I recommend it absolutely.
Five stars!!!

Another outstanding blend from John Patton, creator of Spyglass, Moe's Confetti and other blends that I have ordered but have yet to sample.
This is a very full tasting Latakia blend. The Turkish and Virginia are there, and come to the fore about half way down. This one burns quite slowly, and rushing seems to spoil it, as there are so many flavour combinations in store for the careful smoker.
I would rank this with Nightcap and other Latakia-heavy blends, but others may disagree. It reminded me a little of Stokkebye's Balkan Supreme, but again, others may disagree.
I will certainly be buying more of this, and long may John Patton be around to give us these splendid mixtures.

I really like thus tobacco, from its flavor, to its strength, and for its delightful Latakia content.
The tobacco is very easy to get along with, is not fussy, and once the burn gets going, it is a mellow smoke indeed, with a pretty fair nicotine factor.
I am a regular Nightcap smoker, but this one, for me, at least, will become a regular smoke for me.
Darned good tobacco, at a reasonable price!
