McClelland No. 5125 Coyote Classic Full
(3.04)
A rich, full Oriental mixture made for the American taste. This is a classic outdoor smoke for the woodsman or cowpoke. It is stout with lots of smoked Latakia and fragrant Turkish, with just enough natural sweet matured Virginia for interest and balance. Then, we age it under pressure for several months to develop a tobacco that will bring the smoker so much pleasure he'll howl like a coyote.

The most Balkan-like in McClelland's loose/bulk range. The Orientals are there chugging along; however, it's not a blast. More of an all-day Oriental and the Nicotine is tame which I appreciate unlike many C&D blends including Hermit which tend to Nic-kick quite a bit. Latakia is present yet not huge, with Virginias in a supporting role adding a touch of body and sweetness albeit very mild yet pleasing.
My bag arrived with very few stems, McClelland have improved their standards at least with this batch, nice to see and I hope that continues.
The moisture level is perfect, mine was not topped with something sweet whereas 5110 is. It packs easily and combusts great without a bite, very steady down the bowl. It's not a terribly complex blend simply pack puff and enjoy, no fuss no muss.
Another good one to have on hand in bulk.

One of my favorites. I like the Latakia and sweetness. It's something I can smoke all day and mostly forget until it asserts itself occasionally.
Seems to essentially be a Frog Morton blend in bulk. Nice price, good, even smoke.

I could see smoking this all day. Reminds me of af a blend JR Cigars sells called Baker Street. It has that same sweetness, perhaps from the VA? Although this blend is a bit flat, it does provide that sweetness that I like. This could be a great oriental blend to introduce an aromatic smoker to. I will probably finish off this 4oz, but there are others I would buy instead.

Upon lighting up this mixture is not unlike all the English blends out there. You get that smokey, bbq thing going on. About mid bowel, I start detecting an aroma like freshly brewed coffee. Can't taste the coffee, but I certainly smell it. This blend allows me to get away with murder while smoking around others. I've been crucified for smoking strong English blends before. But this Coyote Classic seems to go over well with others. Who doesn't like the smell of brewing coffee?

I would have to agree with a previous review in that this blend reminds me of Frog Morton but with a little more zest/zing or something of that nature. It was a bit difficult keeping it lit at first but once lit, it burned beautifully.

Smoky taste, lots of thick smoke. Latakia dominant until mid-bowl, at which time some Oriental spice sneaked in, hardly noticeable. Didn?t pick up much Virginia. Reminiscent of a campfire; something to sit back and get friendly with. High quality at a great price.

This is a very tasty full-bodied smoke. I really enjoy how the sweetness of the dark Virginias balance with the Orientals and Latakia. Broad spectrum of flavor. This is what I reach for when I want a full English/Oriental mix.

All in all, Coyote Classic Full delivers on its promise, though I never felt compelled to put on the cowboy hat and rope cattle.
But is there some kind of (or distant relative of) lake district floral soapy toppings in this? Just a tiny little bit?
There's something in this that I can't put my finger on that seems to distract a little from the main components, or maybe it's an element in one of those components. Maybe this is what makes CCF "for the American taste" whatever that may mean.
There's little variation here, but a solid smoke it is.

Coyote Classic is aptly named for one thing, the amount of sticks and twigs included in the tobacco. I dump my new bags of this mixture on to the table and pick all of them out. Other than that, this is a great medium all day Latakia blend that I have become very fond of and keep at least 8 ounces of this on hand at all times. This just tastes like an oudoor smoke. Once the trash is removed, it packs easy, lites easy, and burns clean, slow and even to the bottom of the bowl. Its taste is Full, smooth and rich. I give it 3 out 4, the twigs having to be picked out costs it a star.

I wonder how "coyote" fits into the naming of this blend. It really has nothing to do with that small wild canine, it has everything to do with good taste. Indeed, this is a full flavored everyday non-aromatic with enough latakia for anybody, and it's never harsh or biting. If I could say anything negative about it, it would be in condemnation of those infernal pieces of stem. They have to be teased out as you're loading, or you won't get a steady burn. Nevertheless, this is a superb everyday smoke.
