Cult Embassy

Haven't cracked open the tin as of yet. Tried the Blood Red Moon and really enjoy it so far.

The Cult Embassy is delicious and aromatic. Great for anytime of the day.

You can taste the Latakia. This is a tobacco that has grown on me. Each new bowl gives me some new nuance to ponder. I am not good at describing tastes and flavors, but I know when I like what I am smoking and I like this blend!

This is my second review of this blend after several more bowls smoked in several different pipes to broaden my experience. My first review was based on one bowl straight from a newly opened tin and having no prior smoking of this product, since it contained Latakia, I used a pipe that I reserve strictly for Latakia blends. I tried another bowl in the same pipe and this time it tasted much the same, but with a little more sweetness to the taste. Wow, I thought this may be more complicated than I first opined. So I moved on to several others of my pipes to give it a try in them. I found a new flavor trying to come through. It was a subtle sweet taste, but I was unable to make out exactly the flavor coming out as I smoked. The more I smoked it, the better it tasted so I had to update my initial review. This is a very good change in smoking enjoyment for me. The Latakia is present and is satisfying. The sweetness is also accompanied by a spiciness that is also subtle. I'll be buying more for times when I tire of smoking the more normal aromatics in my tobacco stash. I am sorry I could not be more specific with regards to the flavor discriptions, but it is enough for me to say that I like.

The Latakia is present in each mouthful of enjoyable smoke. It is perhaps the main flavor that comes through in this blend which makes it a pleasant change and surprise from others of the aromatics I smoke regularly. It is not a bad choice if you want a little something different from Cult. My only other experience with Cult's blends have been with Conspiracy and Conspiracy Theory and this has a whole different taste than the other two. Other Latakia blends I have tried have been a bit harsher while this one is cool and mild. Nice change especially as cooler weather should be arriving soon.
