Jack's Tobacco OK Bayou
(3.00)
His rich blend combines the finest orange & red Virginias with a touch of nutty burley and enough Turkish, Cyprian & Syrian Latakia to make this a classic medium Balkan mixture, then seasons it with a extra measure of premium St. James perique to satisfy even the toughest of critics.

This has to be one of the most intelligently blended perique mixtures ever. You get a good all around latakia/virginia smoke, with just the perfect hint of perique. It just seems to have the correct amount of ingredients and works perfectly in both taste and olfactory results. Sometimes things work out just right.

This Bayou Dog is a very laid back puppy in the strength department, but the taste is aggressive and unique.
This might be the first time I ever tasted a Balkan style blend with so much Burley and Perique. The descriptive says, "a touch of Burley," but I detected a lot of tell-tale Burley nuttiness once I set fire to the leaf from the pouch I received. Latakia, Turkish, Virginia, Burley and Perique make this blend complex, and there was quite a battle going on throughout the smoke as the various leaf types were vying for top billing.
Two things I have noticed about Jack's Blends that I like. They always cut the leaf in a manner that is easy to load and the moisture content is almost perfect.
If you like mild complexity, Bayou Dog might be your pooch.
