Should be acceptable to most...

p a mountain grade,' it pushes the boundary of a Balkan; with the oriental seemingly forward most of the time; at least this is what I detect. Moving on...if I draw in wisps (which I recommend), rather than drawing aggressively/deeply, the traditional English/Balkan flavors are there and are quite enjoyable. Aggressive drawing can become a bit bitey, especially in the 'retro-hale' with some sting. This blend is a producer of clouds though so, yes, expect clouds. Anyhow, I'm torn between rating this good (4.0★) or excellent (5.0★) at the moment. So I'm sticking right in the middle for now. Although I'm keeping the bookmark, for this, in my *Best* Folder; for future purchases....Read More

.... and that's not a bad thing. Nice room note. I love the smoky and spicy flavors and they stay consistent all the way to the end. Excellent in the morning with a strong French Roast. Definitely keeping this one in stock.

Intriguing, if somewhat redundant, spin on a familiar idea...

ocused on a wide variety of menu items that in reality differ very little from one another, which is an apt description and this blend is a case in point. Is it bad? No, in fact it's quite tasty - rich, smoky, strong, with some interesting nuance from the interplay of the burley, orientals, and perique. Is it that different from their other Lat bomb offerings? No, to the point of redundancy. I'm a tobacco nerd and blend my own stuff from whole leaf, so I like comparing and contrasting, exploring subtle flavor differences, and the like, and Engine #99 certainly makes for an interesting side by side analysis with the other Lat bombs from C&D (the sweet tea-like aftertaste from what I assume is an interplay between the burley and virginias is particularly noteworthy on this one, for some reason), but its also similar enough that I see no reason to keep it around over any of the others. Unless you're an uber-nuance nerd I doubt you'd notice much of a difference between this, Byzantium, and Pirate Kake, and in reality thanks to the orientals, perique, and burley it tastes basically like a combination of the two, to my palate at any rate. Is it nice? Sure. But its similar enough to Byzantium and Pirate Kake (both of which I prefer over this, particularly Byzantium thanks to its clean, streamlined flavor profile) that I see no need to keep it around. Still, if you like Lat bombs and are looking for a good warm weather puffer with a good hit of Vitamin N you're golden, so by all means give it a go. You won't be disappointed, and that sweet-tea aftertaste is lovely so more than worth the time......Read More
