I really have been enjoying this blend lately. I had the pleasure of talking to Fred Hanna about the blend and I thought I'd share what he had to say about it. Please share your experiences with this modern day classic.
"I blended Wilderness and it does my heart glad to hear you like it. It took me about 20 different combinations to get it to a point where it sang to me. I was trying to come up with an English/Balkan blend something akin to the old days from the 1960s and 1970s except with currently available tobaccos. There are 12 different ingredients total including 4 different extremely high quality Orientals--drama, yenidje, mahalla, and basma. I tried to make it complex, harmonious, and balanced with a wide range of flavors, but all finding comfort in the base of that exquisite Syrian latakia, which I believe is the best in the world. It wasn't easy to get it just right believe me, but I now like it so much that it is now pretty much all that I smoke! I am very happy to hear you like it too!"
