Sterling Tobacco Co Royal London Dock
(2.80)
Royal London Dock (Light English) Inspired by an old English blend Royal London Dock contains black cavendish, burleys, perique, latakia and Orientals. Stronger than a medium blend with an earthy and full taste on the palate. The tobacco smells great and has a really nice flavor to it. This is a nice blend excellent tones, not overwhelming.

The sugary black cavendish is nearly the predominant flavor, though not in an unpleasant manner, and has little vanilla. The spice and raisin perique and dry, sweet and sour Orientals are faintly noticeable, though a little more so at the half way point. The burley is sweet and a little nutty, and plays an important role. The Cyprian latakia is also light, sweet, woody and smoky as a supporting player. The sweet rum very mildly tones down the tobaccos. This is mostly an aromatic English with a rather soft, comfortable consistent taste. Burns at a reasonable pace, cool, and cool with few relights and hardly any moisture. Not quite an all day smoke, but blended for repeat performances during the day and night.

This is a blend that was not good but was not bad. In the end the taste is pretty muted, and none of the components really stick out. Kind of boring really.
The tobacco comes at a great moisture level, and I can tell by dealing with the owner of the company he is a stand up guy that takes a lot of pride in his product. I would not hesitate to purchase from this blender again.
That being said this tobacco is pretty middle of the road all the way through the bowl. All the components are there, but nothing really shines. Its a high quality product, just not a taste I would be excited to experience again. As always your mileage may vary.
