a little bit of a floral or spice to the blend, and the Virginia gives what Virginias always give. But the Latakia is different than any Latakia heavy blend I've had. It's rich, dark and smooth tasting. Obviously smokey but the leather aspect is what hits me the most. Creamy mouth feel. I've been folding and stuffing the flakes but I think this needs a bit more rubbing out than flakes I'm accustomed to. All in all, a solid product I plan on keeping in the rotation....Read More

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.
Great taste, frustrating smoke

stuff, fold and crumble techniques. Even after airing, I got an unusual amount of condensation in the bowl and needed more re-lights than my usual. This meant an occasional uncomfortable nic hit. Finally, my taste preference runs to the Oriental side of the English mix spectrum. And for that, Star of the East is an excellent choice....Read More
Quite Good

I gave it a 3 because perhaps I'd overhyped it in my head. As a tobacco, it's quite good. As a flake, I wasn't particularly impressed because there are so many phenomenal flakes on the market.
Smooth wall of Latakia

Flavor profile entirely dominated by the smokey leaf. Delicious, creamy, velvety meld with the virgina. Smooth as can be. Delicious retrohale. Its a killer smoke when you're craving a really big Latakia bomb but want a luxurious tobacco.
awesome!

f oak campfire, earth, bread, herbal spices, floral, mild sweet fruit, mild lemon grass, and a moderate peppery retro. Latakia is leading with Izmir Turkish supporting and stoved Red Virginia in the background. Room note is tolerable to strong, and aftertaste is excellent....Read More
Very Pleasent Smoke

I tried Pirate Kake before this and while smokable I would never want to smoke a 2nd pipe full at 75% Latakia. Star of the East though very pleasent smoke I am enjoying this very much at 50% Latakia

me with the conviction that this was hands down the best, I had to try. I must say, I have never enjoyed a tobacco more than I have enjoyed Star of the East. I stand by my word that there is nothing better. This tobacco is perfect in every way imaginable....Read More

it is not over bearing. You get plenty of sweet, and spicy notes in front of the Smokey goodness.
It’s better than pirate cake which was my favorite C&D blend until I tried this. It reminds me of GL’s quiet nights only better. SOTE flake is a lot richer, and fuller while not being either a lat-bomb or nicotine powerhouse. A lot of reviewers compared to penzance. I’ve never had that blend as I can never find it available, but that’s OK with me. I would be 100% happy if I ended up stranded somewhere for life and could only smoke this.. it really is that good. Buy the 8 OZ tin, you’ll just order more if you only buy the 2 and price wise can’t beat it.
Happy smokes!!...Read More
