McClelland Oriental Mixture No. 12
(2.42)
Rich and full of flavor, especially appealing in the evening, still spiced gently enough with Latakia and Turkish leaf to be a superb occasional tobacco for the individual who normally prefers lighter mixtures and Matured Virginias.

I had the chance to enjoy some 1993 vintage #12. I've had newer before and wasn't "overly impressed" finding it similar to the other blends in the series. However, with the extra aging it turns into a very sublime oriental. The tobaccos play off each other nicely and it has become much more flavorful. It really convinced me to let the unopened tins in the cellar stay dormant for another decade or so 🙂
