Edward's Special Balkan
(3.18)
An extreme mixture for the smoker who has a fondness for cool, rich Latakia. This blend is half Latakia and will satisfy the most ardent desire. Three types of Virginia are used as a base, with a sprinkle of Burley.

I am a fan of balkan style blends and this is a pretty good one. I won't say excellant because I would say a blend such as GL Pease's Oddysey would fit into that category. That being said I think this is a good Balkan blend, On the balkan blend side of things this tends to be more on the earthy stout side of things vs. some that are a little bit sweeter. The range of flavors on this one is pretty good in that it ranges from earthy to smokey in varying levels and flavors through out the bowl. The earthy flavors realy caught my attention on this one because of the range and variety of flavors and tones. This is a good Balkan at a good price. Highly recomended for bargain smokers who want to try a good Balkan style of blend or for those who generaly enjoy this genre of blends.
