Seven Balkan favorites, including the infamous Balkan Sobranie—a cornucopia of smoky mixtures for the connoisseur or explorer.
House of Sobranie revolutionized pipe tobacco blending with Balkan Sobranie. Decades on, J. F. Germain & Son continue to produce this legendary tobacco, and blenders continue to craft Sobranie inspired mixtures, spurring a rich English subgenre. Despite the common spark of inspiration, the individuality between Balkan blends attests to the subtlety that goes into the art of tobacco blending.
