Jim's GLP Samarra Review.

[JimInks]

There’s a moderate amount of smoky, woody sweet Cyprian latakia that you’ll notice throughout the smoke, though it never takes the lead or undercuts the other tobaccos. You will probably notice it more at the start. The Oriental/Turkish is woody, a little herbal, with some dry notes and a hint of the sour. The red Virginia is tangy dark fruit sweet with a little earth, and is a star component while allowing the others to speak to your senses. The perique is raisin and a little pepper in a minor role, and the pepper isn’t evident in every single puff, but you'll know it's there. The lemon Virginia is citrusy in a supporting role. The Orientals seem to gain more prominence after the half day point, and to a small extent, that is also true of the red Va. Well balanced, complex, and rich in flavor, it’s fairly smooth and slightly creamy, though you lose just a little of that at the last four or five puffs. Burns at a moderate rate; cool with no harsh spots. Leaves almost no moisture. Not an all day smoke, but not a power house either. You’ll be left standing when you’re done.
