Mine was pretty dry when I got it, had to jar it up when I got it, it's on the medium to strong side with the latakia. I also got some Kramer's Cary Grant blend, Afternoon Mélange, and Pasha's Dream in today, all excellent latakia aromatics.
It arrived, it was an Aylesbury tin. I wanted to collect a Sillem’s tin, since they’re not around, and that is what they had pictured on their site, I was assuming I was getting.
As my pipe smoking continues I have recently found that I love the flavor of the Latakia when it is mixed with an aro. However, I am not really an English blend fan, at least I am not a big fan of the Peterson NC and EMP. They are ok, but I think it's the Oriental that I don't like. I am currently smoking:
Lane HGL
Sutliff Holiday Mixture
Cult Conspiracy
Cult Embassy
Anyone else like the Latakia blended with the aro's? I welcome any suggestions of any similar blends currently available.
