First of all i began to smoke this mixture a few years back so i don't know how good this was before. People say /11 was GREAT and today is a poor imitation of times past, but i'm not conditioned by this fact and to be fair i don't care either. You can get it in Argentina at hermes Tobacco shop in Buenos Aires. It comes in 100 gr plastic bags, and the humidity is correct. I distinguish on sight virginia, burley, puro leaf and latakia, everything in various types of cuts mixing them very well. From the beginning the herbal notes of virginia go hand by hand with the nutty burley and the cigar leaf showing from time to time adding terreous flavour to the mix, leaving the leading role to a smoke rich latakia (wich i presume is from Cyprus). It may be me, but i sense some sweet hints which i think is honey added to the burley. The nicotin is strong on this one so it will satisfy the heavy smoker. An everyday smoke for the hard english mixtures smoker or a finishing day mix to others, not the best but certainly superior in my humble opinion to Brebbia n°8 or Image Latakia.
