Did not like it at first, but let it sit in a jar for a month and it was lovely. Now it's at the top of my list, among my most favorite English blends. I enjoy it much more than anything from Pease or C&D. No cellar is complete without it.

Peterson set the standard for this traditional blend. It is wonderfully balanced and very flavorful,. The Orientals and balanced iwth Latakia's smokieness hits the spot. I use this blend as the standard to evaluate other English.

This is a reliable and consistent English blend. My experience is that it can be a little harsh when the tin is first opened. Letting it rest in a jar for at least two weeks seems to settle it down and bring out the flavor.

Standard Mixture is one of my top 5 all time favorite blends. It is a perfectly balanced all day everyday English blend. Nothing here is extreme, just comfortable in every way.

Standard Mixture is a great Smokey English Blend. Although I wouldn’t consider this a Latakia bomb, nor would this be a Virginia forward sweet tobacco- it is rather very balanced, and is a great introduction to English Blends and/or a good choice for an everyday smoke.

A great English tobacco. Very well named. I enjoy this at any time of day and anywhere I'm smoking. A good savory blend. Five stars!

After smoking a tin of this, SM has become my go to blend. There are other blends I really like but wouldn’t want all the time. SM is the one I can return to and always know it will be a good enjoyable smoke. This is home base for me. So glad I finally tried it.
