Hearth & Home Virginia Spice
(3.21)
Virginia, perique, and cigar leaf. For the pipe smoker who really enjoys the clean, sweet spiciness of a mixture of matured Virginias, but who wants something a little different. The difference comes from the use of cool smoking perique for a bit of plum and pepper, with cigar leaf added for a hint of round richness.

I'm sadly almost through my tin. I'm really enjoying this VaPer because I can clearly taste the harmonious combination of sweet spring grass and tartness. With other blends of this type I mostly get a dry vegetal thing. My only knock is that this stuff was very wet in the tin and needed a week with the lid ajar to get to a smokable moisture level.

I'm pretty new to pipe smoking, but so far I love it. I ordered the Virginia sampler which I recommend, and the H&H Virginia Spice was included in it. The smell of it straight out of the tin is magnificent you get the normal Virginia smell, but the cigar leaves and perique doesn't hurt it at all.
The first light and puff had a nice mild flavor and was consistent through the whole bowl. I could taste the perique and the cigar leaves but was not over powering. If you're looking for something smooth and flavorful this is for you. This is a great blend and I look forward to smoking it again.
