I'm fairly new to the world of premium pipe tobacco. I smoked one back 5 years ago, but at the time, there wasn't easy access to high-quality products or information, so I ended up with the usual drugstore brands. My interest quickly faded, and my old Doc Grabow pipe was forgotten in the passage of time. Fortunately, I stumbled upon a pipe shop in Clayton, MO, where they set me up with a Comoy second and a tin of Dan Devil's Holiday, and I was off to the races. Thanks to this site, I’ve now been able to sample some of the best tobaccos I've ever tasted. I stuck with Dan for a while (as it was what the shop carried) and discovered Gordon Pym and Bailey's Balkan. After my first taste of Latakia, the appeal of cased tobaccos significantly faded.

I've since tried SG FVF and found I prefer the natural sweetness of Virginia over heavily flavored blends. That said, I was searching for a blend with a strong Latakia presence throughout the smoke, and I found that in Balkan Sasieni. It burns cool with few relights and satisfies without being too overpowering. My only critique, which may stem from my still-developing palate, is its somewhat one-dimensional nature. While the smoke’s character does shift as you progress through the bowl, it doesn’t match the complexity of other blends I’ve tried. I also miss the late-bowl surging sweetness of Virginia that I find in Bailey’s Balkan, which is absent here. Nonetheless, this blend has earned a place in my rotation, though not as an everyday smoke. I highly recommend it for anyone craving a consistent Latakia experience.

皮革、木质、烟熏香气丰富，尼古丁含量低，适合全天.

酸酸甜甜的 喜欢拉草的可以常备一些 该草性价比高 碰上折扣可以多囤些

如果你抽英混L草，这款萨西尼绝对是必尝的一款。我一直把它作为自己的口粮草来品尝，强烈推荐你也试一下。

步入拉塔基亚调配世界的时候不可绕过的一款调配！香、甜、柔和不刺鼻的烟气，隐约的奶香味道！唯一的遗憾就是配方变了，老叙利亚拉塔基亚变成了塞浦路斯L，庆幸的是手头还有批老的，不过新的调配也并不难抽，且便宜，性价比很好！
