About This Pipe Tobacco

Super Balkan is mostly a bright flake mixture with Perique, Latakia, and Burley, spiked with high grade Turkish leaf. An even heavier dose of Latakia than found in Atlas Balkan. One of Cornell and Diehl's oldest blends.

good English

Not my first English, but my first after I learned pacing. The Latakia comes thru, especially on lighting up; it tastes mostly woody, not very smoky. Despite being mostly VA flake, I got a strong note of burley, which my beginner tongue isn't skilled enough to describe.

It's good, don't get me wrong. I enjoyed it. But I likely won't buy more. Why?

Well, I don't feel the strength rating is accurate. Had it been a five outta five on nicotine, this would likely be my new go-to English. But I just didn't get any more out of it than I do from a 3/5 luxury navy flake; maybe just a hair more. As someone switching from cigs to pipes, I still have cravings to manage. This just doesn't do it any better than anything else I've tried.

That, plus the fact you have to rub out the flake components to get it to burn, deduct half a star each, as they're detrimental to the blend but not *too* bad. Having to fish thru and rub out the flake was actually kinda annoying to me, as I'm used to just folding my flakes up and stuffing them. But, I tried and it just wouldn't burn right, so rubbing it out it is

All in all, a good smoke but doesn't feel as strong as rated to me. Tasty stuff, but didn't leave an impression, so I likely won't reorder it...Read More

A strong blend you can smoke all day.

If I was stranded on a desert island and pipe tobacco was an available commodity, this would be my choice. I can't think of any way to improve this product. It's just good.

Mild and Smooth

This blend is remarkably smooth and easy to smoke. The bag note reminds me of figs, with a decent amount of sweetness. The cut is long ribbons with a lot of broken flakes. Moisture wise its on the dry side, but it smokes perfectly with no drying time.

The flavor is complex, I can taste citrus and hay from the Virginias underneath the fullness of the burley. Surprisingly I don't taste much Latakia, a bit of smokiness/woodiness, but it supports the other flavors more than it stands on its own. As for the Perique and Orientals, I definitely taste the spice/incense from them but they contribute more to the mouthfeel than the flavor for me.

I like this blend, but I find it a bit boring. It's obviously full of flavor, high quality tobacco, and easy to smoke; but it just doesn't do much for me beyond that. Ironically the description of this blend compares it to Atlas Balkan, which I tried a few weeks ago and immediately became one of my favorite C&D blends....Read More

Full-bodied with flavors that work so well together. Very nice room note. Easily in my top 5.

Excellent x excellent.

I was lucky to get one before it was gone. It has the same scent I remember from the real Balkans, found in many luxury brands, but at a reasonable price. Choosing BK from C&D was definitely a great idea.
