[QUOTE="user 6274, post: 605574, member: 6274"] English blends usually don't have heavy casing added to them as the combination of Latakia, Orientals, Virginia and, in some cases, Burley and Perique, create a satisfying taste which is usually slightly sweet, spicy, and smoky. Some do have casings but they're another story. The tobacco aroma might not be that enticing at first but when smoking it, it is very agreeable. Pleasant. When I discovered English blends, I significantly reduced the aromatic tobaccos I was buying as I found them to lack taste, beyond the obvious casings. As [USER=32]@ftrplt[/USER] mentioned, it's best to try for yourself, to really understand. If I may, though, I would suggest Peterson Early Morning Pipe and Peterson Old Dublin to get you started. EMP has more Virginias and Orientals than Latakia and OD is more of what we call a Scottish blend, because it contains some Black Cavendish into it. [/QUOTE]
