I pity those that bought it when they could've gotten a pound of Balkan Sobranie Original Match from SPC's sale right now for $28.I just ordered last one.

According to Tobacco reviews the leaf makeup is different so they should be two different blends but I'm sure they don't always disclose every leaf in the blend.Many swear that one to be tinned Balkan Supreme.
TR used to say Black Frigate had perique in it, and it doesn't. I've found it to be a terribly unreliable site.According to Tobacco reviews the leaf makeup is different so they should be two different blends
Not being exposed to oxygen in a tin is going to have a large impact on the flavor and aging English blends tends to dull them.The Sasieni already has a year of age on it upon delivery, and am going to wait till August to break into Supreme (will have 6 months of age)
Black House was in my rotation years ago, and now you reminded me to look to see if I have any left. back then I thought it was great stuff.Not really sure what Germain was going for with this, but don't bother. I've never had anything labeled Balkan that was remotely close to this. Maybe 965 with a heaping of wet lawn clippings.
If you're already on P&C try White Knight and Black House, they re much closer to Sobranie White and 759. Better yet call LJ Peretti and order a few ounces of Royal and a few of Tashkent.
