Product: Dan Tobacco Gordon Pym 50g
To my palate, Gordon Pym remains a solid English offering that nonetheless lacks a few crucial traits to make it a favorite in my book.
The note in the tin is very smoky, promising a quality offering of Latakia that the mixture indeed delivers. The ... Read More
cut makes for an easy packing a good burn rate, which further solidify Mr Pym's reputation as a dependable companion.
Where the blend falls short, for me, is the dryness, not of the leaf but the actual taste. It seems like the best way to describe what I miss in the flavour department. Of course, I prefer my blends to *smoke* dry. But while the flavour delivers smokiness in spades, it lacks certain subtleties that make, say, McClelland's Wilderness a blends that stands apart. I admit that I prefer my steaks on the raw side of medium and that is precisely what is lacking in Mr Pym. It feels slightly overdone and thus a little arid, dull, and ashy. It reminds me the most, perhaps, of Esoterica's Margate, which I also did not care for much.
Having said that, I am sure there are smokers out there for whom this could be a four star blend. Perhaps even the prince in their rotation. For myself, I prefer the rounder, sweeter Latakia mixtures out there. Read Less

很碎的裁切，开罐后闻着味道挺柔和的，拉塔基亚的特点很明显。一开始抽了几斗感觉一般，后来再抽觉得越来越好抽，也许是很少抽这种很碎的烟草没有经验。建议放在梅森瓶里先用保湿片增加一些湿度，然后填装的时候不能太紧，这种很碎的烟草很容易填的太紧。总体来说味道香甜美味而且柔和不腻，现在已经是我很喜欢的烟草之一了。

This blend tastes like the original Dunhill ‘Standard Mixture Medium’. It is one of my favorite tinned blends.

Like the book this blend is good not great the Latakia is a bit lacking and the orientals dont stand out much to me. While a perfect moisture when opened it seems to cause tongue bite a bit for me. It seems a bit high in Virginias and needs a slower ... Read More

A quality mild English. Very smooth and enjoyable. I like it as a change of pace to my Aromatic and Virginia tobaccos. Dan tobacco hits the mark again.

Flavor down to the last puff... And consistent
I can't understand why people want a blend that changes as it's smoked... I want something that I'll like from start to finish...
