Well, I think it is clear who claims the title for best Balkan, and it is very nice. If you want something a little sweater and really unique as far as Balkans are concerned try F&K - Sterling Balkan 759. I personally think it is as good of quality as Black House, just different. They both come in bulk, so try them both.

If you're not satisfied with the really damn obvious answer, I reccommend PS Balkan Supreme and H&H Magnum Opus, too. The Balkan Supreme is super smooth and the MO is super complex.

No Lat present) but said It was in the way it had been processed

is why it gets the English classification....I say smoke'em all/ call'em

I think I'll have to go with the Black House. I've honestly never tried a Balkan blend, so I'm not sure what I want out of it. Something new. Something enjoyable. I'm sad that smokingpipes.com doesn't have any in stock, so I'll have to make a P&C order. Might grab up a tin of Larry's Blend as well. Thanks for your help and suggestions fella's.

Well I take it back. I ordered Blue Mountain instead. Jud has not steered me wrong thus far. Promise, I will order some Black House next time.
