Peter Stokkebye Turkish Export (No.84)
(3.50)
Stokkebye’s Turkish Pipe tobacco is a flavorful uncased blend of Turkish Samsun (a legendary Oriental leaf) which is sun-cured and expertly blended with ripe Virginia tobaccos for a complex pleasing smoke. It is lightly aromatic and smooth.
Notes: This comes in 2 cuts - a fine ribbon (in bulk) for pipe, and a fine shag (in pouch) for RYO.

This is more for blending. Turkish tobaccos tend to be spicy and somehow this one picks. You can tame it by adding some sweet Virginias or Cavendish of fairly common blends. I added some good Virginias and a little bit of Captain Black White cavendish and the smoke was much better.

Peter Stokkebye - Turkish Export (No.84).
The blend comprises an equal amount of gold and medium brown ribbons, these are fine in build, and arrive with a smokeable hydration to them.
The smoke: from my point of view, would be a good blending leaf, but isn't particularly enjoyable straight. I get no Virginia flavour, it seems to be 100% Samsun. Sort of like a sour, cigar, type flavour, unrelenting in its potency. Ergo, why I'd use this for blending, not straight-smoking. Another problem with smoking it neat is the temperature: it needs a gentle technique otherwise can become way too warm.
Nicotine: medium. Room-note: tolerable to strong.
Turkish Export (No.84): a three star blending weed, but a one star blend alone. Somewhat recommended:
Two stars.
