Light, grassy and - yes - lemony leaves which burn smoothly and easily. The tobacco it contains is all Virginia and it is mildly flavored with Lemon and honey.
Stale, Bland, Weak, Flavorless

Tastes like nothing. This is very weird. First, the ribbons are incredibly dry, because my tin was not vacuum sealed, like a Drucquer or Pease tin. That's also weird for C&D, which are usually vacuum sealed. No flavor upon lighting and none ever develops in the bowl. It's like stale cigarettes. I'm so disappointed. I waited over three years to open this, and it's awful. Completely flavorless. It's not "bad", as to be bad it would have to taste like something. This tastes like nothing. Whenever I open a new tin of C&D I usually don't like it at first, so I jar it and come back in 2-3 months and it's better. I don't think that can happen here because the ribbons are bone dry with zero flavor to adjust. What a bummer. Half a star is a stretch....Read More

I hate to give bad reviews. Especially for a tobacco from a company that makes so many blends I really like. HOWEVER, this may be the worst tobacco I've ever subjugated myself to. I gave this an honest try with 6 or 7 bowls of the stuff through various styles of pipes. I probably came close to smoking half of the tin, regretfully. It just gets worse every time. It's like smoking a burned gym sock that was soaked in roofing tar and antiseptic cleaners. I regret every bowl I smoked of this, and threw it away....Read More
Mild and strange

Mild English, slightly pleasant latex taste but hard to nail down, definitely sour, easy to smoke too hot so need to go slow. Not bad but not a go-to.

Finally a blend that gets compared to 965 that actually resembles it. This is a little less sweet than 965, but the cavendish is there smoothing it out. This blend is rife with the tangy, sour Oriental flavors that I want in an English blend. OE is a good all day smoke for real English lovers and an evening treat for the punters....Read More

Simply stated; this is the best Balkan blend I have smoked since Balkan Sobranie 759 in the black and gold tin ceased being available.
Awesome

Did I get a bad batch?

If you like a bitter, flavorless smoke that won't stay lit, this is the one for you. I have to say I'm usually impressed by C&D. Their Oriental Silk is very pleasant, but the Oriental Express is a train wreck.

I will amend this review with a gracious whole star to say that it's not bad, it'
s just mostly nothing. I got a hint of chocolate off of the first hit in a different pipe...may have been the hemp and beeswax twine I used to light it. It has a bit if an acrid room note that's not horrible and was less bitter in this pipe. It's smokable, but why bother....Read More

Lots of good Oriental flavor in this one. It's like a stronger Early Morning Blend.
Damn good!

It is similar to Peterson My Mixture 965, but like a step up. A little stronger in nicotine, a little more full flavored and a little better all around imo!
