Hearth & Home Frenchy's Sunza Bitches
(2.44)
For those who prefer a little Virginia with their perique, your ship has come in. The addition of the burley and bourbon toppings does set it apart a bit, it's still a VaPer to the core with nothing spared when it comes to the perique. This is an excellent blend that smokes clean and cool with not a hint of bite.

Sunza Bitches! Hell it's just fun to say if nothin else! This is a great tobacco. I didn't feel like the perique was overpowering at all. It is most definately there but it mixes well with the Virginia and the Burley. I didn't pick up much of the burbon but it does have a very slight sweet note to it. I didn't get any bite from this one, just a little peppery on the tongue from the perique. Salute Frenchy!!
Update 04-27-08 Went ahead and bought a pound of this. Good stuff, it will be a regular part of my rotation.

Tried this at Frenchy's recomendation, and boy was I glad..... The smell is of a wonderful Vanilla, bourbon topping- Mixed with the figgy spiceness of perique. And there is perique..... this kinda reminded me of a topped Haddo's Delight...Strong enough to use caution. yet flavorfull enough to throw caution to the wind and keep puffin..... Cool smoke, no bite,- Great flavor.....there are no down sides.... Try it and enjoy the view..... **Update- This lost a star as it doesn't seem to age well....Better fresh.....Still love ya Frenchy...:)

With so many VAPers being replicas of each other this is a nice twist.
Images evoked include a plate from a Chinese buffet overcoated with sweet and sour sauce and a dash of tobasco.

I received a sample of this blend along with a pipe purchase. I found it to be a very enjoyable tobacco. The very light burbon topping and the burley really smooth out the taste.
I did not find the perique to be overpowering just a good counterpoint to the virginia. Nicotine is moderate; I found it very tolerable I immediately ordered more of this tobacco and plan to keep it on hand

This blend took me by surprise. Despite the marketing suggesting massive amounts of Perique, I found SB to be a very well balanced VaPer with virtually no bite. The burley adds just the right counterpoint to what is obviously first-rate Virginia leaf. The bourbon isn't over-the-top either and mellows the whole concoction a bit. It does pack a not insignificant amount of nicotine for those accustomed to stronger blends. However, it doesn't produce any adverse reactions that typically accompany such fare.
Russ' blends are sort of hit-or-miss with me but this one is most certainly out of the park. Well done indeed.
