Park-Lane Tobacconist Knightsbridge
(3.29)
A zesty mix of Bright, Red and Lemon Virginia tobaccos, blended with the Turkish tobacco Smyrna, which lends it's noticeable taste and irresistible aroma. A generous addition of Cyprian Latakia adds it's smoky top note, and a small measure of Perique is added to round out the blend and add to it's spicy finish. A full bodied but not overpowering English mixture.

This light English blend has a medium amount of Park Lane's excellent Latakia. The tobacco is easy to pack, light, and smoke. I used four (4) matches to light and smoke a bowl to a fine ash with a minimum of tending. Even when smoked slowly, Knightsbridge produces clouds of white smoke. The tobacco was enjoyable when smoked in July in the Mississippi Delta--an excellent choice for summer.

This is an outstanding smooth English blend. It's full without being sharp. One reviewer compared it to Penzance but I would say this is more similar to Margate. Just the right amount of Turkish to lend depth and Latakia to add weight. Highly recommended.

Great hidden secret for those of you that you just can't quit Penzance or would like to get an idea of what Penzance taste like this is it, easy to light cOmes in ribbon form where you can appreciate the blend Virginias mixed with the orientals and Latakia. If I was forced to pick one Latakia blend that I have tasted it that is a pleasure to smoke from top to finish and does not leave your mouth with a salty taste this is it. Very English in character I guarantee it will not disappoint.
