Balkan mixtures
Bought my first pipe at Edwards in the San Fernando Valley in the earky 80's, and smoked bulk English and black cavendish from the same shop... until I started reading the reviews here and on tobacco reviews.
Got a tin of McClelland Syrian Full Balkan last week, and have smoked it every day for the last five days. Lots of virgina, but if there's any latakia in there I can't taste it.
Was expecting something closer to an English mixture, needless to say I'm more that a bit let down.
Is this tobacco a typical Balkan?
What would you have me try?
