Afternoon all, When I was a young man, I used to be a big fan of the Hong Kong cinema genre of action films. I used to buy a wonderful, now sadly defunct, magazine called Eastern Heroes. Eastern Heroes used to have this incredibly annoying habit of doing great reviews of fantastic films and then finish them by saying.....but this film isn't available in the UK.... Sadly, with this concentrate review, the end will say this is "no longer available". Any point in reading on? I guess not About 6 weeks ago, BCL released a new NET called "Unnamed tobacco". It was cheap, they had only a litre of concentrate and, for some reason, weren't planning to keep it on. Idle curiosity got the better of me and I thought I'd give it a bash. "The tobacco with no name" is a milk chocolate infused NET. Very smooth and not too sweet - almost like the taste of leaving a square of chocolate in your mouth and letting it melt. A slight hint of Virginia tobacco and something mild and mellow with a nice little sweet kick without being artificial or too over sweetened. I have no idea why this one was sold off. It really is rather good. I have messaged BCL and asked if they would consider doing this one again....it's a keeper

It's a 'Dregs Mix' ....gotta be!!! Not that I can really have an opinion 'cos I have n't tasted it! I was gonna get some, along wiv the Burley ( I read a good review somewhere...! ) Got thru' to the Paypal bit & by the time I'd entered My C/C details, the page expired wiv a 'You've been inactive for a while etc...' message! I know I'm a 'one-fingered, hunt & peck' typist but wtf!! Went back next day & both this & the Burley are O.O.S.!....

yourgurnard - Sadly the Burley does go OOS a fair bit - I'm sure it will be back soon You might want to try Black Mamba if you like dark tobacco and fruit. Would also very strongly recommend Desert Ship if you like a Turkish

yourgurnard - Sadly, I'm far too poor to have ever tried a real Cuban But this cuban cigar net is very good - even with my limited previous cigar smoking experience, I thought "Yeah, this is pretty damm good!" - I know I certainly overuse "authentic" when reviewing stuff, but I would say CC certainly is Funnily enough, even with all the good NETs I've tried recently, I got a concentrate of Old Captain to mix up - just for when I need that generic, gloopy honey hit
