Classic Balkan
This is a real, quintessential Balkan blend. Wonderful, spicy orientals with just enough latakia. An everyday smoke, one of my favourites.

Good stuff
One of the best balkan blends I've had very smooth. Give it a try.

Balkan Sasieni Original Formula pipe tobacco
I give it 2 stars because it IS pipe tobacco and you CAN smoke it. Other than that......well.....I'm not a fan. Tastes a little like soap. This is only MY opinion...others may like it...not me.

Balkan Sasieni
I am breaking in a new pipe as advised, but this tobacco seems to smoke rather harsh compared with others I've used.

Pure love
Balkan Sasieni is a very nice smoke. My expectations were not let down. It’s a great English, thick smoke that isn’t to over powering. It’s a great after dinner smoke or paired with a nice bourbon.

Balkan Sasieni
Excellent English tobacco at a great price.

Lovely smoke
Rich, complex, smooth with an exotic room note this is a good one for the eye opener with coffee or watching the sunset as the last rays fade. Not harsh or overpowering but rich is flavor, the product of a master blend.

pipe tobacco
Long time cigar smoker and reviewer, new to the pipe game. Right now I think, it's more about learning about the craft of pipe smoking than the pipe tobacco. I like the taste and it feels very comforting when I puff away. However, it's more learning, as tobacco has a tendency to go out. I believe that is me and not the tobacco.

Another worthy blend
This is an easy blend to smoke and not as robust as other Latakia blends. The tin I received was a little dry for my preference but not so much that it hinders me from enjoying it.
