According to VegasSmokes.com:
Samarra is a rich and complex mixture, without being heavy. Matured red Virginia provides the basic structure and a delicate sweetness. A generous portion of Cyprian Latakia is added for its smoky richness, and exotic, fragrant oriental leaf provides fullness to the flavor. Finally, just a hint of lemon Virginia adds bit of brightness to the smoke, and a touch of Perique adds its own unique piquancy. Maybe my taste buds are wacked out from a stressful day at work, but this is coming across as very mild to me. The main character is the Latakia, but even it's not to aggresive. I guess I taste a bit of Perique, but I don't know that flavor very well. This might make a good intro to Latakia blends, but I think I'm outgrowing it. Maybe it would make a good morning smoke. I'll have to give that a try. Brian Vote for Freedom! Libertarian Party http://www.lp.org/
