Being a bit wary of too much latakia I bought this blend for its moderate latakia content. The smell in the tin is sweet ans slightly smoky, but the sweetness dominates. The room note is very similar.

The taste is sweet and kindof salty, rather than the peppery taste I get from other latakia blends. It's a nice summer outdoor smoke. The tobacco smokes cool and leave little dottle. The smoke is cool and creamy, which is probably due to the orientals. Not in my top 5, but defenitely worth a try

Looks like they blended some good quality tobacco here; burns nicely down to a fine grey ash and won't leave your pipe goopy. It'll run a little hot at first loading of the pipe, but gets milder on the first re-light and it will smoke easily and gently through the rest of the bowl.

Other than that,...eh. A nice, mild English blend and that's about all you can say there, matey. I smoke it once in a blue moon while practicing my English accent and it gives my wife an excuse to have the draperies cleaned. Everyone's happy eh?

It's well balanced giving a cool, salty smoke to the bottom of the bowl.

Nothing exciting. A well done nutty oriental mixture, but nothing else.

Royalty is a medium english blend. Period. I do not have much to say about this blend except it is what you expect when you open the tin, which makes it quite boring. Nothing exciting in this tin. On a good note this tin is full of high quality tobacco. My wife hated the smell of it, said I smelled like I was smoking cigs. Recommended for someone searching for an english blend that is not too harsh.

Nice tobacco, rich taste...but there are a lot of similiar tobaccos that cost much cheaper, so 2 stars

This is on OK English blend that was a ridiculous price of $40 AusD, or about $30 USD. Taxes over here are insane.
