The first Latakia blend I had tasted back in the days.
And...oh my - this is a tasty smoke in my opinion. Really, it's nothing special, i admit that since I now got to smoke a lot of Latakia blends - but Best Blend is still a honest and tasty blend.
I'd recommend this for anyone to try as the first Latakia blend, due to it's smooth and creamy Latakia. No peaks tastewise, just a solid, creamy taste. Consistend flavour throughout the whole bowl.
Not strong at all, but also not what i would call "mild". It's truely a "medium-strenght" blend.
3/4 for a good Latakia-Blend imo.

This is a good smoke! All the tobaccos are skillfully apportioned. Mellow, Smokey and smooth. Of course 20 years in the celler may have affected this. If still produced I would definitely purchase this.

Its a good tobacco for those who like latakia blend, but you must choise a decent pipe for this, i did a mistak to fill it in a cheap pipe and i was disappointed at first but after pick a good pipe the tobacco taste show himself to me. I save a jar of it in my cellar. If it dont have cavendish i guess it should be better. I like it it, ill buy it again if i coulnt find any latakia blend.

This was a very pleasant surprise! I was in a shop that had a few tins so I said "What the Hell?" I loved BB Balkan Blend and I thought this might also be pretty good. It was!!! This is for those who appreciate the following blends: COUNT PULASKI, DR.BRADLEY,and HGL. A mildly sweet English tobacco with a subdued flavor. The Latakia is present throughout the bowl and the Perique lets itself be known w/o being obtrusive. A wonderful German treatment of an English tobacco! It is a very pleasant diversion for the hard core Balkan fans like myself and it smells great too. You will actually make friends and still enjoy your pipe. Well worth a try. 3 of 4 aromatic English stars!
