BS 759 Match
October 01, 2020
Product: Sutliff Balkan Sobranie 759 Match Bulk
Great English with less Oriental presence than the BS Original Smoking Mixture Match. Has some nice body from the dark fired and Burley, with rich Latakia smokiness.
Creamy, smoky and sweet

Nice rough cut and really slow burning. I never had the original one, but this tobacco is quite good in its own right. It contains sweetened black Cavendish and a fair amount of orientals and latakia, but I would not class it as a full Balkan. I come... Read More
s a little bit moist in the bag and does not seem to produce a rich dense smoke, but I am loving the dry fruit undertones and the slow burning capabilities. In my personal opinion this is going to age beautifully and this price range it really is a steal. Read Less
Very Tasty, Complex

Product: Sutliff Balkan Sobranie 759 Match Bulk
This is really a very good balkan blend. The burley gives it structure, the Virginias give it a bit of soft sweetness, and the latakia is a sound base. But the real star here is the orientals. I can’t identify which ones they used, but they are so co... Read More
mplex and they continue to develop and unfurl throughout the bowl, it’s just wonderful. Very different from many of the other English/Balkan blends I’ve been smoking. Perhaps a bit more balkan than English? These orientals start out with a great sour note on the first light, then they provide exotic spice in the middle of the bowl, and then something magical happens in the last third of the bowl. They soften out and become more round and mellow. So curious, so relaxing. Very tasty. Incredibly pleasing. I have not had the opportunity to try the original that this blend was created to match, but what an excellent smoke, regardless of whether or not it successfully recreates its namesake. It’s good enough to stand as its own achievement. Read Less

正经寿百年不好买，这个还不好买么，性价比也高
Product: Sutliff Balkan Sobranie 759 Match Bulk
烟熏奶香略带甜味，L草含量较少整体比较清淡而平衡，一款适合全天候享用的烟草，裁切相对粗糙，个人感觉味道比另一款原始巴尔干稍好一些
Very good

This tastes very much like nightcap to me leaving the subtleties when you have it right in that sweet spot nothing to complain about just an excellent English blend can really taste the Oriental
This is familiar.

Familiar but not the same, and I'm not referring to the original BS either, it's closer to White Knight than BS, tin note seems a bit different though.

Best of Mild Balkans
September 17, 2023
Product: Sutliff Balkan Sobranie 759 Match Bulk
BS 759 Match is the best mild Balkan blend around. The orientals are sour and floral and earthy and delicate, and they take centerstage, as oriental leaf should do in a Balkan blend. The latakia used here is sweet, a bit more like DFK than the creoso... Read More
te smokiness of the latakia you find in Pirate Kake for example. Burley imposes some cool burning order while Virginia sweetens the pot and adds those archetypal grassy-hay-bready-citrus notes. I could smoke this one all day, and I do. The flavors are so nuanced and interesting, and they develop and evolve without transgressing the major chord. Earthy and floral, buttery smooth, creamy, nutty, spicy, sour, and smoky. It's so satisfying. Doesn't pack a wallop, so if you want something stronger go for Casbah or Ten Russians or Blockade Runner. But if you want a perfect all day Balkan english blend, this one's the winner. Read Less
nice change of pace

Product: Sutliff Balkan Sobranie 759 Match Bulk
Jar note of smoky stewed sweet, spiced fruit. Tobacco is a wide ribbon cut of brown, black and tan. Moisture content is great. Burns slow with few relights. The strength is medium and nic is mild. No flavoring detected. Taste is medium and mostly con... Read More
sistent, with notes of nuts, toasted bread, wood, spices, herbal floral, earth, smoky, leather, mild cocoa, peppery, musty fermented vegetation, dry green grass, buttery, savory, a zesty sour, tangy citrus background note, and a mildly peppery, almost smooth retro. Oriental/Turkish is leading with Kentucky supporting. Latakia and Virginia are cheering them on. Room note is tolerable, and aftertaste is great. Read Less
Good Blend
September 15, 2022
Product: Sutliff Balkan Sobranie 759 Match Bulk
While not way up on my list this is a good blend a little change of pace the the dark fired makes for a tasty smoke. That said the price is right put a pound in the cellar you wont regret it.
Product: Sutliff Balkan Sobranie 759 Match Bulk
I have never had the original because I could never buy it anywhere. This tobacco is suprisingly mild. It has a good taste and the Latakia is light.
