Emperor Goose was another bulk blend that Windsor had on his price list. An in your face Latakia strong blend that was subdued only by complimentary and rather monochromatic Virginia that never interfered with the unrelenting waves of the smoky Latakia. A little too heavy on the Lat for me, but a quality smoke.

this is a pretty simple blend, with only latakia and virginia tobaccos. the appearance is mainly dark flakes with a few lighter virginia ones. the pouch aroma is kind of sour and vinegary, not particularly appealing but i don't buy tobacs to smell them. there is some moisture, about the same as any mcclellan blend. packing and lighting are average, and it burns down to a bit of dottle in the bottom of the bowl. some drying time might make it better in this aspect. the above comments make emperor goose sound bland, but the taste is very appealing to me. it's a mild tobacco, perfect for an all-day smoke. there's a hint of sweetness, along with good smooth latakia flavor. best of all is the room note. my wife loves the smell of this one. this solves a long search for me, a straight english blend with an appealing room note. this one is a keeper for me. three stars.
