The Cornell & Diehl Atlas Balkan is a medium to strong blend of Burley, Latakia and a healthy dose of Perique. Called a Balkan, it is labeled as a “Traditional English”, but the absence of Virginia leaves that up for debate. A good choice for fans of Perique and Latakia.

Bulk balkan
A very good balkan with tons of flavor

Not my thing
First off, this stuff was crispy dry as it came to me. A rare miss by the great staff here at tobacco pipes. I spare it could just be like that but still not good. Once moistened to my liking the flavor did come back and it was smokable but it's not a mixture I could honestly recommend to anyone. I found it to be a bit harsh and much more fragrant than flavorful. I also found it to bite the tongue, which is a sensation I'm not real used to after a lot of pipe smoking. It may be an okay blend if you like classic American blends but if you're looking for an actual Balkan or you're a fan of English I'd pass.

Great aroma
A good addition to the tobacco I have to add a little spice to it.

ATLAS BALKAN has a bite
Flavor is very nice, The Latakia blend is subtle, but still present. The bite creeps up on you.

AROMATIC TOBACCO BULK
IT IS NOT A STRONG FLAVOUR, BUT THE PRICE IS REASONABLE FOR 12oZ.
