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
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

hich I rated “4” and almost the same as Bailey’s Front Porch, which I rated “5” . I know that when it comes to that magical combinations, C&D are making some good English blends.
This blend is for Latakia lovers only. When I tell you the Latakia is strong, it is nose burning strong. It’s almost like snorting scotch whisky up your nose.
It’s just a pure lat bomb with a beautiful follow up of some spice and sweetness. To be honest, it’s probably a blend that is more than I could handle for more than a couple bowls back to back. It’s a strong and pungent as a freshman’s gym bag at the end of the semester.
Engine #99 did to me the same thing that Nightcap does, but I’m not saying they’re the same. What I’m saying is - despite almost 35 years of nicotine consumption In one way or another , this blend made my head swim a little bit. Which honestly is kind of nice to be reminded from time to time that you’re not immune to the powers and magical potions of nicotine.
This is an absolutely beautiful blend. The Oriental and Virginia’s are just razor sharp lying under a blanket of latakia and everything just goes together and form a beautiful symphony of flavors and depth. I will absolutely be adding a pound of this to my cellar very soon.
My rating : 5

.... 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.
