[QUOTE="puros_bran, post: 66524, member: 10"] Right basis, wrong conclusion. Traditional American blends were topped or cased, usually made of burley. (Some call this style Danish) Traditional English Blends weren't (,supposedly,I'm just repeating by osmosis,there was a English Law prohibiting it).. This is no longer true in either case... Look at McC,C&D,GLP, etc... the majority of their tobacco's aren't topped or cased... Now look at all the G&H and SG stuff that have their 'signature' on it.... Trying to base what blenders are better based on their location is a no go... Plenty of 'English' style blends made all over the world, just as theres tons of topped/cased blends made all over the world. The odd thing? (Both simply my opinion) I think one would be hard pressed to find a better Aro than SG's Braken Flake (made in the UK) and THE Balken Style English blend has to be GL Pease Odyssey (made in the US) [/QUOTE]
