Royal Blunder Kake, while not a blunder, is a very non-descript, almost boring English blend. It contains all of the components that would seem to make for a great English blend. It rubs out with ease and arrives at a decent moisture level for smoking. It smells nice in the pouch too. But it is vanilla (not the flavoring) personified. Blunder Kake's pouch appearance would lead one to believe that it might be bold, but I find myself over puffing seeking bigger flavor. There just isn't anything that stands out for me. Given the fact that Russ makes some very outstanding English blends, this one is best left for English beginners. Black House, Larry's, and Magnum Opus, just to name a few, are all better choices from P&C.

Royal Blunder Kake:
Who knows WHAT is in this blend. Could be Latakia, could be Oriental. Could be Cavendish. I don't detect any Burley. Cakes crumble and pack easily.
Lots of smoke once it gets going. Very mild in strength. No bite, very mild. Spicy? No. Buttery? Not really. So mild, it's hard to recognize any of the component tobaccos. Its mildness would make it appropriate for the Aro smoker to delve into English blends.
Too mild for me, but might be right for some. I'll stick with Larry's Blend.
