I sampled this blend from McClelland called Blue Mountain in a JSG Short Stubby Poker with a Waist on the 19th of January. I've had this blend in my cubbard for some time now---the bronze with blue mountain labeling didn't jump out and grab my attention so that's the reason why it remained untouched...until now!
"Rich with the finest Mountain Latakia, a classic full Balkan pipe tobacco mixture, smooth and deeply fragrant. The inspiration for this elegant mixture was a 21-year old tin of the legendary #759."
This tin is comprised of brown and dark brown ribbon-cut Oriental/Turkish, Virginia and Latakia tobaccos. The tin note is your typical camfire from the Latakia--love it! The moisture level appears that it would be moist with the oily appearance, but it is somewhat dry. Ater the first light it produced nice full puffy smoke. I get a very nice salty but creamy coat on my palate with a campfire aroma. If you love Latakia, than this is a hit!! It was so good that I blasted through this tin in less than 1 week! This is a highly recommended blend and it was a wonderful smoke from beginning to end!! I definitely need to restock this fabulous baccy!
