Mango yellow, a palm tree, a plantation.

Cheers, Cobber!
This tobacco got discontinued about 25 years ago, I think.
It came in a 1oz/25g carton & was a true 'codger' blend & a mesmerising smoke!
The colours of the packet resembled a beautiful land down under. (sort of) Think of the sun & scorched earth, with an Aussie looking bloke on the front. One of the best ever smokes I've had, Fair Dinkum!?

Ha! Serves you right for cheating, Michael! Lol. I thought the name of the game was 'Guess the Blend' not 'Google' it.

Ahhhh, I never saw that rule. Ok OK, I will return all of the gifts, vacation packages, and money that I have won thus far. I wouldn't feel right enjoying them knowing that I've cheated, ha ha.

My lack of knowledge of Australian Tobaccos probably disqualifies me from this current blend. Anyways, when I try to imagine what an Australian Bloke looks like, I think of upside down blonde fellas.

I'm guessing its some obscure old blend called Outback or something, am I even close?

So was it an Aussie bloke or just a guy that looked like an Aussie bloke? I mean, was the tobacco Australian?

 

[jttnk]

Absolutely no idea, “Gold Mine” ?
