Beutiful and strong!

Product: Planta Full English Bulk
Out of the 16 ounces bag, smells of sweetness and hint of Latakia. I was not expecting too much from this blend but when smoked, it was beautiful. Beautiful in a sense that it's delicious and tasty. But this blend is not for the beginners, there is b... Read More

Wicked Good...

Product: Planta Full English Bulk
I have tried a few of the Planta Aros and really like them, so I thought I would try their English blend. I loaded a Savinelli Dry System and proceeded to have my mind blown. I smoke a good bit of Billy Budd...This gives Billy Budd a run for the mone... Read More
y...this is rich, dark, flavors of coffee and chocolate come through with the Java leaf. This is a superb blend I will be stocking up on.
Latakia is present but not overwhelming, however the flavor of the Latakia lingered on my palette for a good while after finishing the bowl. This is a quality blend and excellent smoke.
My only gripe is that this does not come in a resealable bag, so it needs a new bag or container after opening. A small price to pay for such a great smoke.But nevertheless, a little hassle. Read Less
Wonderful Pipe Tobacco
November 08, 2019
Product: Planta Full English Bulk
The combination of Virginia tobaccos mixed with Latakia and Java give this mixture the most wonderful tasting tobacco I have ever smoked in 53 years of smoking a pipe. I was expecting a strong Latakia smell and taste, instead a delicious taste. Smo... Read More

Full rich, interestingly sweet - low latakia prominence

Product: Planta Full English Bulk
[Tin/bag - Some smokiness, little plastic rubber tire nuances, and almost some vinegar hinted shoe leather. Lane Crown Achievement is way more prominent on the smokiness and tire smell factor. Great moisture, ready to smoke.]

Achievement heavy Latakia) Orangey sweetness and some mild Virginia hay comes through prominently at start. Mild on Latakia - some say it is Syrian @TobaccoReviews.com, but SP says it is Cyperian, either way its good. Love the way the mild Latakia nuances with the Virginias. Nice body, full rounded/"butteriness" where a little spice comes through. Flavor remains to the end, though the oranginess fades into the background. Nice, smooth, enjoyable, and different.
Easy to manage and burns excellent with moisture ready right out of the tin/bag. Leaves little to no moisture with no bite from slow consistent puffs. ◄7.5/10✠Skulls► Read Less
Best Smoke Ever

This is simply the most satisfying pipe tobacco I've ever smoked.
Good, Full/Strong English without Sweet Topping
June 12, 2019
Product: Planta Full English Bulk
This is a strong-ish English, medium-low Latakia content, no detectable topping or added sweetness. Good nic-kick. The cigar leaf really adds some fullness. A good English, though I prefer a little less Vitamin N personally.
Full English?

Mild Latakia flavor. Low side of medium in terms of nicotine strength. Coats the mouth with something I usually associate with aromatics.
Excellent

The Latakia is definitely there but it's not a Lat Bomb. The description of the tobacco doesn't include any Oriental or Turkish leaf but, if I didn't know that, I would swear that it is there. There is a distinctly sour note, but not unpleasantly so,... Read More
that is usually associated with Orientals/Turkish. Perhaps that comes from the type of cigar leaf used... The Virginias are sweet, with a bit of fresh bread flavor. Read Less

I'm reviewing the original Syrian version and it is wonderful. One of the best full blends I've found with Syrian latakia. The Java leaf gives it a nice kick and it's just a great fall blend for me. The newer reformulated recipe with Cyprian I haven'... Read More
t tried yet and doubt I will anytime soon as I bought enough to last a long, long time of the original for future enjoyment. Read Less

English lovers rejoice! Here comes a full bodied smoke that has sweetness to it due to the virginias added. The java tobaccos add some spiciness to this awesome blend. I cannot complain for its price.

An english - balkan of a different stripe. The syrian still retains its underlying oriental quality, the java cigar leaf adds some power and body, virginia brings up the rear with a touch of sweetness. Great blend, if you can get it.

To be honest, I haven't smoked English blends regularly in close to 20 years. Normally, I smoke Virginia/Perique blends, sometimes with the addition of turkish or burley. So while I was waiting for this Full English blend to arrive in the mail, I w... Read More
as braced for the worst.
Luckily, I was NOT disappointed. Planta uses first-rate tobaccos, expertly blended, with a rich sumptious quality. Burns very cool and even. However, you get the nuances of the smoke when you sip at a relaxed pace. The Syrian latakia is excellent, and the Java leaf is present just in the right amount, without overpowering. Definitely a keeper! Read Less
