[QUOTE="fishfly, post: 399113, member: 3663"] I think you hit the nail on the head, ftrplt. Those aromatics and a few tobacconist's store blends I smoked over the years never really satisfied me. The "English" blends do. I tried the Presbyterian and the Gaslight and liked them both. The Presbyterian seemed very mild to me but the Gaslight was strange. I didn't particularly love it when I lit it up, but the further down the bowl I got, the more it called to me. There was just something there, beyond my reach, that I wanted. Maybe this is what some of the more sophisticated tastes call "complexity". If it is, I want more of it. There really isn't a one of these tobaccos (except Newminster Ultimate English) that I would turn my nose up at. But the Balkan Sasieni and the Gaslight are going to get a lot more burning time. monbla256--If you've found a tobacco that will take me back to a time when I could walk trout streams all morning and then play 18 in the afternoon, I want it! Royal Blend is now on my "to smoke" list. Thanks for the suggestion. [/QUOTE]
