| The tobacco was in very broken flake form, but perhaps that was just this tin. A very straight forward VaPer, the Virginias were darker than I expected, so for me this would have been better as an autumn smoke than a summer one. The Perique was far from overpowering, but provided a very nice structure for the Virginias. VaPer fans, and those who like Va's on the slightly darker side would likely enjoy this.

| Not having smoked a blend with perique I was perhaps a bit anxious and leery about this blend. I must confess that the only reason for trying this was that for years I raised beagles and figured what the hell I love the breed so the blend must be good. Opened the tin and was met by a strong vinagery aroma...must be the perique...a little off putting. Packed well, lit well and God, I was in heaven. Surprisingly the smoke tasted of green olives...not a bad thing...love green olives. I wouldn't call this an everyday smoke, but it does well when layered or mixed with your regular blends. By itself I would call it a very good change of pace smoke. Rating is 3 stars only because I can't see smoking this daily by itself.
5/15/13...have become a Perique junkie...God, help me...Has made it into my daily rotation and deserves an unqualified 4 stars.

| I do believe that this is the same blend from McClelland... Bulk No.2015 Virginia Flake. Can anybody confirm or deny? :)
They both look identical. Smell identical and smoke the same. Wonderful VaPer blend. See my review of McClelland Bulk No.2015 Virginia Flake to see my comments. Sweet, rich, pleasant... Good stuff!

| Nicely prepared pressed flake with yellow to dark brown strains from McClelland made for Arango Cigar in IL. Ideal moisture content straight from the tin that I just packed without rubout. Also lacked the intense ketchup aroma that I dislike of some other McClelland blends although it's there to some degree. Cool, even smoke in all sized bowls without the need for relights. Nice balance between the VAs and Perique resulted in an enjoyable smoke.
