Smoky, Smooth, Flavorful. Tremendous Blend
Another hit from C&D. If you like your English blends Latakia forward this needs to be in your rotation.

Excellent English blend!
I smoked a bowl of this for the first time this evening. I'm impressed. It's a strong but balanced English blend with nice, mellow flavors coming through from light up to cashed bowl. This is going to be a staple for me. Wonderful tobacco.

Sublime tobacco
This is a truly delicious tobacco. Easy to smoke, easy to pack, and delicious. If you are thinking about trying this, you have nothing to lose!

Best all timer. Ever.
It's the type of tobacco that you smoke all day every day, and always want to stay stocked and ready for a rainy day. Strong but not too strong, the flavor is natural, and room note reminds me of my grandpa's old study. 10/10

Star of The East
An excellent English blend. Smokes well all the way through. I have been looking around and trying a variety of English blends and have found this one to stand apart from the rest. The latakia is nice and strong but allows for the virginas to be tasted.
