Reiner Blend 51

Reiner Blend 51 is a light English mixture built from light and dark Virginias, Burley, black Cavendish, and a small amount of Latakia. With the Latakia proportion kept low, the smoke acts as a spicy frame rather than overwhelming the blend; the thick-cut Latakia burns slowly and the Virginia base carries the whole. It is produced in Germany by Kohlhase & Kopp and, like the rest of the Reiner line, is based on Rüdiger L. Will's recipes. It is also listed as Red Blend 51 in some markets.
