Touching gift, that, if challenging... I'd love to see your reviews, in due course, of 'English Pub', 'Winston Breakfast', and the rest. As a Brit, I reckon that whoever gave that blend the name 'English Pub' hasn't been in one (if ever) since the UK Health Act of 2006, which made 'the possession of lit tobacco in a substantially enclosed space in which people are regularly employed', illegal. Ever since then, it has truly been said, our alehouses are free of all taint of stale tobacco, so now one can instead savour the unadulterated aroma of stale pee wafing in from the urinals :-(

Then one can only hope that the blender hasn't been in a pub in recent years; otherwise, it's going to be a wild adventure in "acquired taste." But it is the thought that counts, and I think the gift is...cute. Congratulations, OP.
