Crisp Latakia blend, Commander!
With a name like this (and the fact I’m a 20-year US Air Force vet), I had to make this the first tobacco smoked in my new Rattray pipe. This is a great robust English blend with strong Latakia and Oriental influence. It has been a great smoke on cool, brisk mornings on the back porch. Strong, but delightfully crisp and bracing.
