I love 965 as much as anyone, and certainly it’s a classic for a reason. This however, I like a little more. There are so many English blends out there, it’s hard to know where to start. This would be a good place. Medium strength, medium body, and just about everything about it comes up right in the middle. The sourcing of the Latakia is lovely, and the orientals and Virginia are beautiful as well. Slight sweetness, sour, with a nice perfumy creaminess. Definitely a contender for an all day smoke. I can imagine a little age would smooth it out even more, but great fresh. Highly recommended...Read More

mild mint maybe??? Just not sure. Throughout the bowl it seemingly plays with the taste buds. Giving you something different each draw. In such a way, it says; "try this...and now this...how about this?" I'll be needing to get more of this ordered soon. And all of this from a M.M. Cob with the shank cut short to remove the excess from inside the bowl, homemade pipe mortar forming the bottom inside the bowl, and charcoal and sour cream coating of the inside of the bowl as well. I like where the 4.8★ rating is for this today. As I too would rate it between 4.5★ and 5★, after just this one bowl, but yeah...closer to 5★. I tried a second bowl in a billiard briar and it wasn't as tasty as the first bowl in the cob; was good, just not the same. I will *Update* today's rating if/when necessary. C&D/Laudisi took over production of this blend on about the year 2016 (says Prof. Google). Given how popular and successful it seems to be, they'll likely not ever discontinue its production. And this is a good thing....Read More
