Masterfuly balanced classic English mixture with a base of rich red Virginias, Orientals and Latakia. The Kentucky is way too subtle, hardly noticed. Similar to T 16, but T 15's got no added flavoring.
A must-try for English mixture fans.

This was a wonderful surprise. It reminds me of English aromatic blends from the 60's and 70's. I can't remember ever having mixed emotions about writing a review before. My concern is not about the blend, but the fact that rating this one so highly will make it difficult to find. If you try T15, and like it as much as I do,keep it to yourself.
Update: I've changed my review of this blend three times. Each review wavering between three and four stars. This is my final opinion and I'm sticking with it.
Update 2: Make sure you leave the tin open for two days before smoking. If not, you will miss out on the wonderful subtle flavors of this blend. It will also nip if not dried out fully.
Update 3: The more I smoke this the better I like it. Bone dry is the only way to enjoy this wonderful mixture. This blend leaves almost no aftertaste and no throat irritation. As an evening pleasure, this is a blend for those of us who like a milder English blend with flavor.
