Favorite of mine also. Always keep three or four tins on hand. Delicious blend at a reasonable price. Not to be compared to Balkan Supreme. The Sasieni is taste superior.

A very good blend indeed. I tried some at the pipe club meeting last week. I just received a tin in an order but I have so many open tobaccos that I won't be able to get to it for a while.

I recently tried a tin of Balkan Sasieni. At the time I was smoking G.L. Pease Abingdon. I was very disappointed with the Balkan Sasieni since I love Latakia and the Balkan Sasieni did not compare favorably to the Abingdon.

I tried the Balkan Sasieni a couple months ago. At that time I didn't care for it. I put the tin away for a while and tried it again today. Maybe it was me or something, but I found it very good. I smoked it almost all day along with some Boswell's, Dan's Blend. Both were excellent together. Nice and relaxing smoke.

Nice review. Have about 15 tins and 2 pounds of bulk cellaring. Probably one of my favorites right behind the elusive big P.

Great review...Balkan Sasieni has been my favorite Balkan/English blend for several months now. Workin' on a large tin of Billy Budd at the moment (which I'd say is my current 2nd fav) but very much looking forward to cracking open another tin of the Sasieni soon.

I haven't smoked any of this in a while. Smoked it quite a bit at one point, then got distracted by H&H Larry's Blend. Oughta do a revisit. :puffy:

I am in this process now. Did not like the first two bowls at all. On the recommendation of another poster here, I have shuffled it to the back of the cellar for the next few months. Hopefully I'll have a better experience on the revisit.
