Torben Dansk No.4 English Mixture

(3.00)
Similar to No.1 but with more latakia. This blend artfully combines the rich smokiness of Syrian latakia with the natural sweetness of the blended Oriental tobaccos.

Excellent Syrian Latakia in a very well balanced - in taste and strength - mixture. It is a mild-medium tobacco, perfect for an all-day latakian smoke. 4,0/5 in my personal rating system.

Previous reviewers said all, probably this one of the mildest EM ever produced, it can't be satisfying if you are used to smoke a Lat bomb for breakfast but, in its class, it's a winner. Mild, restrained, well mannered... yet pleasantly sweet-smoky-grassy-spicy, everything is subtle but discernible and nicely balanced, I got the best from it in medium-large bowls (especially with a bent smooth Mastro de Paja Castanea) with a quite loose loading and softly tamping. Room note passes wife test.

I like this tobacco. You can taste latakia and oriental on it, it depands to your pipe, some pipe give more latakia taste some pipes less. BTW it has a good balance between latakia and oriental. There is nt much english blend here so i ll buy this tin again.

Firstly it?s to say this one isn?t an U.K. English Mixture, but a poorer imitation of, by Dan Tobacco. On the opening I detected some well-distinguished Latakia flavour mixed with other spicy odouring leaf --I guess orientals have to do something with this. Not much humidity present in the mixture, ribbon cut, helped to pack nicely and light rather easily to offer a very cool and light smoke without any harshness, or would I say creamy? Flavour is welcoming, but taste too light to be real. In fact this mixture is without strength and character. Hoping on something better towards the last third of the bowl, I got less flavour --latakia left me alone to puff out some tasteless, but still somewhat pleasant smoke --you know, the one you don?t have to care too much about, puffing around easily. When, towards the end, combustion went off, I didn?t have any interest to light it again, getting nothing else but simply burning staff and so emptied pipe. Since my first try on this mixture and before deciding to operate some ...changings, I?ve got 2 or 3 pipefuls, but nothing more added to the first to get it less annoying, so promptly I decided to add some dry, long opened pouch of Balkan Sobranie -- let?s say a 10-15%. mixed well, left plugged about a week to amalgamate tobacco flavours, I tried again and ...surprise! the thing came out to an awesome smoke!

Well, what I got after mixing isn?t TorbenDansk N°4 EM; it?s really something else that confirms that blend?s quality isn?t, of course, that bad, but simply lacks strength and latakia flavour.

Room note --if you care-- is only smoky, tolerable.
