I knew that I would like this blend before I ever left for London thanks to PipeStud's scathing review. I picked up a couple tins of this while on a short London vacation. This is a good medium English blend with top quality Virginias and Latakias. This is not a super great smoke, but a solid enjoyable blend. Not really an after dinner blend, but good in the afternoon.

The reason I some this only on ocasion is I can't find it here. A friend of mine kindly brough me some from London. I'm happy find that at least Eulenberg is aware of the fact that wood smoke is the heart and soul of latakia (anyone smoking Night Cap knows this) and that it is of Syrian origin. Myths sugest the keeping of late, unshipped crops hanging form the celling of poor, poorly ventilated peasents houses, where wood was burnt for heating and cocking. Though I perfer London Mixture (for its balanced charm), EMP and Night Cap (this makes me believe I'm smoking a forest) this is an absolutely delicious overwhelming latakia blend. Hope to get more soon.
