Not-so Heavy English
May 30, 2018
Product: Sutliff 503 Heavy English Bulk
Despite the name, this English is nice. I liked the Latakia flavor, and the oriental added a nice spice to the taste. The strength of the name is nothing in keeping with the tobacco as I would consider this more light - medium English. Still, this ... Read More
is a nice English. I would recommend this to somebody wanting to try an English blend. Read Less
A Rather Nice Oriental!
May 06, 2016
Product: Sutliff 503 Heavy English Bulk
Sutliff "Heavy English" ISN'T heavy at all - It's actually a rather mild Oriental blend, naturally quite sweet, and definitely tasty. I highly recommend this surprisingly economical blend.
The morning coffee companion
April 09, 2019
Product: Sutliff 503 Heavy English Bulk
So this is a light english. Sweet, not harsh, not overwhelming in any way, but if you add some strong coffee, oh my God, it is perfect! I have joyfully smoked it every day for 2 weeks. Without coffee is average, so i would say that the 3.72 (4 stars)... Read More
points scored are a fair mark, but this is now my favourite morning coffee tobacco and just for that it has my 5*. Heavy recomandable!
Very similar to Match 20(reviews are quite similar for that matter) but a tad sweeter. Read Less
Smooth Latakia
May 29, 2018
Product: Sutliff 503 Heavy English Bulk
This blend is primarily a mixture of Virginia and Latakia, Oriental is mixed slightly. So, Oriental seems to exist as a spice for this blend. So, it brings a little but a complex hint to the whole of this blend. Body taste will be classified as smoot... Read More
h and mild English. I am a blend thinking that I can recommend it to many people, but I personally did not have much opportunity to detect Oriental's taste. Read Less
Quite decent
April 08, 2017
Product: Sutliff 503 Heavy English Bulk
Course ribbon and beautiful in colour, a hint of sweetness along with a bit of smokiness in the unlit tobacco! The smoke itself is in a good balance, Smyrna is the star of the show and give the whole smoke a unique taste, fragrant and spicy, the Virg... Read More
inia broaden the spectrum and the Latakia is always there to show support! Never heavy as the name suggests, a nice all day smoke. Read Less
Light English?

Product: Sutliff 503 Heavy English Bulk
It's a decent smoke but compared to Father Dempsey I was letdown. Especially for the namesake this is not a heavy English if anything this is better if your looking for a lighter English in my opinion.
Only one thing wrong ...

Product: Sutliff 503 Heavy English Bulk
And that's the name. Nothing "heavy" here. Actually, a pleasant medium-bodied English, with just enough Latakia to keep things interesting. This has become my "go to" English blend and is likely to remain so.
Cool and Easy-Going English
December 04, 2021
Product: Sutliff 503 Heavy English Bulk
Sometimes it’s nice to smoke something that doesn’t stick to your tongue and palate, something that allows you to smoke bowl after bowl. That’s what you get with Heavy English. It straddles the fence between English and Balkan, burning coolly and mil... Read More

Sweet English
June 06, 2021
Product: Sutliff 503 Heavy English Bulk
This blend is very good. Not a lat bomb. I find it to be pretty sweet for an English. There is a boozy quality to it. Glad I have many options or I would smoke this stuff right up.
A great bulk English
May 20, 2021
Product: Sutliff 503 Heavy English Bulk
The quality of this blend convinces methat a lot of the tinned mixtures like Squadron Leader are over-rated. This bulk English is every bit as good, in my opinion, and a lot less expensive. I wouldn't say it's got one distinctive characteristic that ... Read More
separates it from everything else, but it's proof you don't have to pay tin prices to get tin quality. Lovely, lat-forward English at a great price.
If I have a bone to pick with this one, it is only the name. "Heavy" English seems wrong to me for this one. Perhaps Sutliff should find some as yet unused or hilarious English town name for this one, rather than trying to scare off lovers of lighter mixtures. How about "Squatney Mixture," (Spinal Tap reference) or (actual town name) "Bitchfield Blend." Read Less
A very nice English!
May 17, 2020
Product: Sutliff 503 Heavy English Bulk
This is a very pleasant smoke not only for its aroma but also for the taste. It is very floral with spice and a light nectar like sweetness from start to finish. This will go good with many different tea varieties to pair with.

Good one, but have a problem with package. Some chemical smell.
Not really a balkan
March 19, 2018
Product: Sutliff 503 Heavy English Bulk
I’ve smoked a lot of things that are labelled ‘orientals.’ Thanks to the now defunct McClelland brands I have a pretty clear idea of what constitutes oriental influence. 503 is some lat and a lot of virginias and just enough oriental to justify cal... Read More
ling it ann ‘english’ blend rater that a verlat. Not that there is anything wrong with 503, but it’s hardly heavy. Westminster and Nightcap bracket what I think of as heavy, 503 is a light, all-day smoke. Good for a starting smoker. The nose is woodsy, taste is a bit earthy with a faint sweetness. Lots of smoke and a clean ash. Read Less

Nothing special about this Tobacco. Nothing jumps out in flavor's. Pretty bland really. You can smell the Latakia, but you can also smell a heavy chemical odor as well. I wouldn't buy this again. Ever.
Great English

Great smoke.
Great English Blend!
September 08, 2015
Product: Sutliff 503 Heavy English Bulk
It starts a bit light on Latakia but grows until mid-bowl where its name takes all its sense. Quite a spicy smoke. If you're looking for something loaded on Latakia you will not be displeased with this blend. Remember that its spiciness builds up to ... Read More
mid bowl, then it's full spicy. 4 1/2 stars.
Edit 11/30/2015: It became my first smoke in the morning. Something spicy to wake up and start the day. A great English blend. Read Less
