Very few blends were as wonderfully put together (IMO), than the original Ireland made The Bankers. The Planta version is also quite good and the Cuban wrapper leaf lends a unique quality, but not nearly as much so as the original Made in Dublin stuff. Quality Virginia and Orientals make for outstanding lead performances. Not the depth or as full flavored as the original, but still quite good.

This tobacco was recommended to me as an English blend that someone should try if he likes blends with a strong dose of Latakia. I bought it from Germany and I do not know how old was the tin. The scent of Latakia was present even from the air tight tin that it came in. When opened things became even stronger. The tobacco was in a plastic bag (something that I personally don't like) topped with a paper disc. It was quite dry, cut in small short pieces which made it easy to pack in the bowl. When smoked it had a strong taste and a strong characteristic smell of the Latakia that was in a generous proportion, it is close to a cigar. It produces a white thin ash, does not leave humidity in the bowl, and does not make a mesh of the bowl and the filter (was smoked with a 9mm active charcoal filter). For English blend users it is something that I would recommend. I seem to find it in online European shops but I am not aware if it is still produced.
