Blend No.5

Sutliff Blend No. 5 is a ribbon-cut English mixture where latakia provides the base note and Virginia the ongoing sweetness. The tin text also gives the definition of an English blend: a dominant latakia note followed by Virginia, natural flavor, and a smoky scent. The blend also contains burley.

It has an unflavored structure; flavor runs along smoke, wood, and tart-sweet Virginia, described as a cool-smoking profile. Suited to those wanting to sample classic English mixtures at shop-blend prices and to those seeking a balance in latakia blends that doesn't go overboard.
