[quote]Sokhoum tobacco in grown on the mountain slopes in Georgia, beyond the far eastern shore of the Black Sea. It is considered by many to be among the finest Oriental tobacco grown. Sokhoum is a strain of Samsun seed and the leaves have the appearance of Samsun and share a very similar aroma, but notice how the flavor has a quality that is almost cigar-like, rich and deep and mellow in this blend. Sokhoum is the easternmost of the Classic Orientals, fewer than 400 miles south of Sokhum is Iraq.
Inca o capodopera a McClelland, din seria celor 8 minuni orientale. Aceeasi baza de sustinere, potrivit aleasa, de virginii peste care magii au adaugat aromele bine coapte ale frunzelor levantine desavarsite de climatul si solul unic de pe malul opus al Marii Negre. Misterios, inedit si incitant, blendul promite , pe langa delicioasele note de patiserie turceasca, smochine, curmale, citrice, o aroma asemanatoare tigarilor de foi. Eu, unul, nu l-am putut detecta desi am "sorbit" cu atentie aproape toata cutia pana sa ma incumet sa scriu aceste randuri. Dar, trebuie sa recunosc, nu am experienta cu tigarile din foi. In schimb, am reusit sa percep unele arome de nuca, asemanatoare celor din Aged Burley Flake de la Solani.
Tarie medie, amprenta ambientala placuta - de aghiasma, tamaie arsa. Umiditate, aprindere si ardere perfecte. Excelent !
