During this last year I've developed a taste for blends with latakia, having gone through a 13 year period when I smoked it hardly at all. In fact, coming to savor it as I now do, it is surely my major tobacco discovery of the year. Billy Budd was a dud but Nightcap, Quiet Nights, Crown Achievement and the new MB Latakia Flake, each as I smoke them, have made me feel that latakia doesn't get any better; and I go on to the next and become convinced that no, the prior blend was good but my new love is in fact more lovely still.
What happened? First I began to doubt that my determination at that start of pipe smoking that although latakia was good, other tobaccos were better. Then I had the crucial element, openness; and continuing to be so, smoked; then loved what I was smoking.
