[QUOTE="Storm_Crow, post: 193447, member: 1695"] :D There's nothing off putting about either the smell or taste. I enjoy it. Who doesn't like a cozy campfire? The issue is that even in small amounts, lat just tells everything else in the smoke that they should have just stayed home. My tongue does not distinguish a 70% lat from a 20% lat blend outside of the fact that the former is more campfire-ee, but I can't taste any of the other tobaccos in either...and I'd like to. To this day I raise my eyebrow at the prospect of one heavy lat blend (and yes in my book 20% constitues heavy) tasting better than another. All the campfires taste the same to me. :lol: Latakia is just latakia to me. Potent and when I'm in the mood for it, enjoyable...but in no way complex. Again...just my own chemistry I suppose... The 3 blends with lat I smoke currently are distinct: [b]Black House:[/b] my campfire in a bag [b]Epiphany:[/b] very lat (to me) but allows some of that burley through. [b]Black:[/b] fair amount of lat but the cav adds a smoothness, even though not a flavor. The aromatic agent hints slightly at marshmellows...which goes well with a campfire I always say. :D [/QUOTE]
