Not exactly a VA/Perique, in that the Perique is very subdued. It serves to add a little spice and body to the VA, which luckily is very tasty.
This blend can bite if you're not careful, and I imagine it would smoke even hotter without the Perique in it. The overall taste is sharp and pleasant. I get a nice sense of fullness in my stomach when I smoke this, which indicates a fair amount of nicotine.
Recommended to fans of Virginia blends, as the leaf is high quality and offers a sweet, tangy smoke. Fans of VA/Perique blends, like Haddo's or Escudo, will probably be disappointed if they approach it from that standpoint.

A wonderful weed to toil the rainy days away, this blend is fantastic. I smoke mostly pure VA's such as Marlin Flake but do travel outside this realm with a daily bowl of Escudo, and an occasional bowl of Nightcap or Penzance in my Meerschaums. This blend contains Perique but I have a difficult time detecting it. I taste a nice even smoke and if it is topped or cased I cannot tell. Enjoy slowly in a medium sized bowl. [email protected]

A nicely prepared flake of darker VAs that is more pliable than many. However, the moisture content does not result in a wet smoke. I sense the slightest hint of honeydew in the tin aroma but this disappears upon lighting and just good tobacco flavors come thru. Smokes cool and without bite with a uniform taste throughout. With a large bowled pipe and reasonable pace, it seems you could smoke forever. Even @ the end of the smoke, I don't sense the perique influence. If you're looking for a more complex tobacco, perhaps you should try others, but this is still an enjoyable tobacco for me.

I will be brief - an excellent blend with sweet (but not too sweet) Virginias and just the right amount of Perique. Tastes great throughout the whole bowl, burns very well, no relighting needed. One of the best Vapers I have tried. But if you are looking for more punch from Perique, you should look elsewhere (Cabbie’s Mixture perhaps?). Very fine blend. I suppose that our esteemed colleague JimInks must have had some bad batch, as his low rating and the need for relighting indicates. Or maybe an average pipe used? Or maybe I am just an ignoramus?

Very smooth, and the Perique contribution is not too strong. A well made middle of the road natural Virginia flake, not too cased and regular burning.
A bit too nondescript for my taste, though, and not better than many alternatives that regularly fit my rotation.

When opening the can we found a flake brimmed with gold and light brown. The smell has several citrus and fruit touches. The humidity is a little more than necessary. However it lights well and only occasional re-ignition is necessary. From the first moment the taste is sweet and spicy on the nose, the effect is delicious and is maintained until the end, the smoke is creamy and smooth. It is a tobacco of high quality and 100 per 100 recommended

Take a solid golden Va that is about a notch below MVF quality, add a little perique, and then a very mild chocolate casing. Not perique-y enough to qualify as a VaPer for most. I think of it as one and for me it works as one. The perique adds snap and spice and keeps this from being just another golden Va. Every now and then I'll really pick up the chocolate in this, but generally it is invisible IMO. I like it! Smoking a bowl as I type this and thinking the pound in my cellar isn't enough.

Horrid vanilla flavouring. Not at all a pure Virginia Flake. Very disappointed.

Still have'nt found what i am looking for..
The taste and the smell in the tin is all about chocolate.
I like Virginia, lots of nicotine, citrus notes and a high natural sugar content..(Can somebody tell me what to smoke?) this one is sweet, but not in a natural way, burns well, no bite.. somewhat smokeble. Good for beginners i think.

Bought a tin of this as a hold-me-over until a mail-order came in. The tin I purchased was quite dry & I didn't humidify it at the time, which probably didn't help how it struck me. I didn't detect any perique. Probably not a bad blend for va-per lovers. Earns 2 stars.
