4noggins Owl's Head
(3.35)
A classic mellow, sweet, and nicely balanced mixture of Orientals, Virginias, Cyprian Latakia, and Black Cavendish. An English blend that is just complex enough yet mild enough to smoke anytime of day or all day.

Although I am a fan of Balkan blends, I prefer medium to full flavor which this is not in the range. The cavendish really adds some sweetness, maybe too sweet for me, and the body just not impresses me. The second half of the bowl deepens a bit in flavor, but I will still reach for Chipman Hill more often.

Free sample from 4Noggins. Thanks Rich! I'm not big on cavendish but this is quite a pleasant smoke and has a nice sweet note to it. It is a little bitey from the casings and being a bit on the damp side but certainly nothig to bad. Give it a try if you like cavendish in your English.

I've got a sample of this tobacco from Rich. It came slightly wet so I've dried it and tasted. Very “English” taste, Orientals and Latakia are perceptible. Nice and very mild smoke, but personally I prefer stronger mixes.
