[QUOTE="scottbtdmb, post: 317600, member: 1043"] Fair points from everyone. FWIW, I am only 32 and was never able to have cracked a fresh tin of Balkan Sobranie back in the 60's/70's. I have had 35 year old tins of BS, but the Latakia is basically non-existent with three decades of age on it. Anyways, I think the romanticism is what draws a lot of us younger pipe guys to the blends that hearken back to a different time. Also, every English blend that I have ever had with Yenidje in it has been money (Wilke 524, Peretti Royal Blend, Compton's Macedonian). It will be interesting to see how Bennington's #15 measures up with those great tobaccos. Since it appears no one around these parts has tried it, I will be sure to report back! -Scott [/QUOTE]
