This is a very light and airy blend which I can barely detect any latakia in the blend although it does show up subtly now and then. The Virginias are present with the Orientals in the background offering their support of flavour. Straight away from the tin I got a nice light woody kind of aroma with a hint of spice. Upon lighting the tobacco it burns at a moderate pace but the bowl does get warm and some gurgling is definitely at play here with the moisture level of the leaf so maybe let it dry out at first. Slightly peppery and spicy to the taste buds but nothing brutal. This could be a good introduction to English blends and definitely qualifies as an all day smoke. Not a bad tobacco but I wouldn't put it in my top list.
