I had high hopes for this blend, but I was left a little disappointed. The tin aroma promises so much more than the actual tobacco delivers. Having said that, it was a decent blend and I did enjoy it, I was just hoping for more.

I’m not a licorice fan, which scared me with this blend. The topping is subtle but present and more like a nice/fennel and not at all like black jellybeans or licorice. I really like this blend, it’s one of the few times a topping has not disappointed me or overpowered the flavor of the leaf. It works well and adds a nuanced dimension to this Balkan flake. It’s a pain in the arse to break up and keep lit, but the flavor is worth it.
Don’t let it scare you, it deserves a try.
