None will be voiced here about this blend. There I voiced a couple of complaints about Blue Mountain. Just for perspective, it might be good for the reader to go back to my review of Black House's competitor, Blue Mountain. Requires an average number of relights, and leaves very little dampness in the bowl. Well balanced with a little more complexity than BS 759, it burns cool and clean at a reasonable rate with a very consistent sweet and savory, campfire, deep flavor that translates to the pleasantly, short lived after taste and room note. The nic-hit is just past the center of mild to medium. The strength and taste levels are medium. The spice, raisins, figs and plum from the perique is minimal. The Orientals have some dryness, wood, herbalness, floralness, earth, vegetation, and mild spice, sweet and sourness, and those aspects are also a little evident in the dark fired Kentucky, which appears in a small amount. The Virginia is lightly, tartly citrus sweet with some grass as a background player. The light brown sugar sweetness comes from the black cavendish, which is a minor ingredient.
The smokey, woody, earthy, musty sweet Cyprian Latakia (the original had Syrian) takes the lead without cutting down what the other tobaccos do. This has a little more sweetness than in the blend it tries to emulate, and lacks the "unflavored soda note" from the woody, earthy, floral, sour, dry yenidje, though that component is a condiment in this mix.
Despite similarity and intent, I can tell the difference between this and Balkan Sobranie 759.
