It's passable

I've had one or two other English blends without Orientals before trying this one, so I had some expectations about what this blend would be like. It didn't really meet them, and while this blend is not bad at all it's just a bit...underwhelming. The Virginias are definitely the biggest flavor in the blend, with bright Virginias being the standout. I was not expecting this blend to be very sweet or citrus-y, but it definitely was. Most straight Virginias that i've tasted weren't this sweet, it took me by surprise. The Latakia is there but definitely in the background, which surprised me. It gives a little smokiness, but mostly just some incense notes (and those didn't really show up until about 1/3 of the way through the bowl). Is it good? Yes, it's definitely made of quality tobacco. But if you're looking for a hearty, heavy English blend then you really should look elsewhere....Read More

I was looking forward to trying this after liking 34th mixture so much. It too is subtlety mastered. This is a desert island quality blend. Adore it.
All day.

Very well done and proper Latakia/ Virginia. Dunhill bb 1938 is said to be discontinued so this will cover my need for a Latakia/ Virginia blend. I would reccomend this to anyone looking for an anytime smoke they can always enjoy.

FT 滑铁卢2号 生草:少许烟熏与果香。 点火后:烟熏、酸梅子、糖浆、蜜香、炭火、一点花香和木质味。 口腔里面能感受到:果酸、偶尔会有咸口、蜜甜。 烟气方面:浓郁、柔顺,小口抽吸香气风味会比较干净,少许的烟熏感。 总的来说,这款草香气稳定,风味明显少了东方草的缘故,导致这款草可能缺少一点复杂的程度,会让人觉得没有太多可以探索的东西。简而言之,就是稍显单调。
清香淡拉草

罐子很大,草在罐内是种比较松散的状态,湿度也适中,丝带裁切较工整但有一些叶梗,开罐闻起来很不错,是一股清甜花香V草的味道,可以看到仅有少量L草分布,V草应该是占主导地位的。没有过多醒草填了一斗,点火第一感觉这是一款极淡的拉草,主线是V草天然的甜配合少量L草的木质烟熏味,过鼻轻松无压力,抽惯了重拉的朋友可能会感觉不过瘾,我暂且把它当成调味V草来抽,比较适合新手入门或是刚接触拉草的同学。
Ps1:第二次抽时草醒的略干,也可能是换了深斗的原因,除了V草清香甜味,淡L的奶油曲奇香味也很容易捕捉,味道很不错!
