Kendal Balkan Mixture Loose tobacco

Kendal Balkan Mixture Loose tobacco.

Balkan Mixture is a true classic style Balkan blend, rich in Latakia, select Air Cured Virginias and Oriental tobacco leaves. This provides a rich, strong, earthy flavour, with that strong, characterful, burnt ash flavour following through from the Latakia, which you will either love or hate

The flavour has a very distinctive tarry smell accompanied by a burnt ash taste, which is due to a long curing process over smokey fires. Most smokers buy small amounts and add a pinch to a bowl full to add depth and character to the smoke. Latakia is an acquired taste and definitely wouldn't be recommended for the novice smoker.
