Georgetown Tobacco Councilman
(3.25)
Artistic balance by the blenders hand gathers together the distinct flavor of sweet African Malawi tobacco, delicate Turkish, golden Virginia and Latakia into a classic match. The Latakia does not overpower the blend, but lends its spicy taste as a contrast to the sweetness of this mixture.

First allow me to state that I am relatively new to pipe smoking, having only enjoyed it for a about six months. However, I have smoked a variety of blends during this period so I do have some context for comparison.
I was looking for a blend with a bit more flavor than the aromatics I had been smoking but I also wanted something that wouldn't offend my girlfriend's nose. This blend meets both of those criteria.
It is precisely as advertised; very well balanced, mild on the palate but with good leathery flavor, and the Malawi does indeed seem to add a subtle sweetness which is very enjoyable.
And the room note? My girlfriend said "that doesn't smell like much", which is just what I was looking for. I however, think it smells delightful.
Overall I would say this is a truly enjoyable English blend.
