Re: Favorite current production Balkan blend?
Sobranie. It's the blend that set the benchmark.
The new stuff in the pouches is ok, but the older production in the old tins...........that's the $hit!
The Syrian latakia really makes the difference.....much smoother and mellow. Plus the rare yenidjie, xanthi, and macedonian is what sets this apart from other Balkans. Even the newer pouch version of BS doesn't compare well with the older production.
If we ever get together for an area pipe herf, I will bring both the Original (white tin) and 759 for you guys to try.
