Amphora - English 1.75oz
Great English blend…for a pouch tobacco.
The pouch aroma is delicious. However this never truly develops while smoking. The virginias seem to bite a little if smoked too fast. I don’t notice the orientals. The latakia is definitely on the lighter side. I will admit that I am smoking a pouch that I have stored from 2019. However the seal was intact and the contents still in a fine state for smoking. Considering the price, this is still a good blend and I would recommend it, at least for a try.

Light English
Quality tobacco as you might expect. Not very strong in latakia. More virginia and oriental forward. Nice cut and burns well. If you’re looking for an all day English, then this one is for you.

Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation - Evening Flake
Great bulk VaPer
Plenty of perique spice and a nice nicotine hit. Did not bite. Definitely worth a try. Would buy again.

Savinelli - Black Cavendish 50g
Nice aromatic
Flavorful. Required many relights. Not bad but would not buy again.

Savinelli - Cavendish 50g
Flavorful aromatic
Very flavorful and aromatic. The flavor does dissipate quickly. May not be the best quality of leaf. Not recommended.

Mild all day virginia
Mild virginia. Somewhat sweet. Burns readily. Produces lots of smoke. Easily an all day smoke. I recommend.

Amphora - Virginia Blend 1.75oz
Decent straight virginia at a good price
This is a nice straight virginia. As a broken flake it is easy to load. The pouch note is fruity. It lights pretty well but might need a little drying. It is grassy and bright in flavor. I do not detect much sweetness throughout the bowl. You definitely need to sip this blend as it can bite if hurried. There is a slight nicotine hit. Overall a good straight virginia that would be recommended to beginner or experienced smokers.

A & C Petersen - Escudo Navy Deluxe 50g
Spicy VaPer
Lots of peppery spice here. Virginia’s are of high quality and mild. A bit moist in the tin and needs some drying out. Easy to rub out. If you like VaPers start here.

Dunhill - My Mixture 965 50g
Beautifully balanced english
Very flavorful all the way to the bottom of the bowl. No tongue bite. Burns readily to a light gray ash. An all day smoke in my opinion. If you haven’t tried it, do so quickly

Lane Limited - Ready Rubbed 1.5oz
Very good sll day burley
Not what I expected. A very pleasing smoke. Easy to light and burns great. Not many relights and does not bite. Faint flavors of cocoa and molasses. An all day smoke that is worth the try.

Newminster - No.400 Superior Navy Flake
Very nice Virginia
This was a good straight virginia. Light grassy notes. It burned slowly and was satisfying all the way to the bottom of the bowl. I just wish it had some perique in it. This could be a regular smoke.

Newminster - No.23 Blackberry Brandy
Good aromatic
Smells great in the bag. Leaves a fine room note. Not goopy. I’m not an aromatic smoker, but this is a fine example.

Newminster - No.17 English Luxus
Not a bad English
This is an average example of an English mixture. Nothing extra special, but tasty. It did improve halfway down the bowl. It burns well and is somewhat satisfying. Worth the try, but not a regular in my routine.
