4th Generation: FATHERS, FRIENDS & FIRE BATCH 001 2oz

If this blend settles down a bit with some age it might be spectacular. It's a nice-looking flake that is a little rough around the edges at first opening. Virginias are good and the Orientals are a bit much right off. I love Orientals, so I think a little age is going to bring this blend to a really good place. Don't rush it. I wonder how much of this is Eric and how much is C&D? It's a little less nuanced than most C&D blends but there are exceptions to that as well. Give this a little time and I think you will be greatly rewarded. I've noticed these 4th Gen. blends are a little stronger flavored right out of a fresh tin and that may be a little off-putting to some and some will love it. I'm the former more than the latter. But the fact that it is an Oriental Blend....Well it is.. EZ

Ive been looking for this blend for many years. I mean, I’m not going to dispose of all my other blends, and flakes, but this is EXCELLENT!
