COMMENTS: Whiskey flavor is mild but enjoyable. Allow to dry for many hours prior to smoking it. Once dry it is a fine smoke, although not one I'd write home about. (Instead, I'm writing you about it.) If I were given more I would not throw it out. I might mix it with a little more VA to increase its strength slightly.
CONS: Exceedingly wet. Difficult to light, impossible to keep lit until dried out more. Lacks nicotine kick.
PROS: Mild, with virtually no bite whatsoever. Room note is pretty good. For those who enjoy light aromatics this is probably a 3-star blend due to decent taste (when smoked slowly and dried out) and nice room note.

I was at Rupp Arena and passed a Straus tobacconist store before entering. I knew I was going to stop in after the game and did so. Suprised to find three Peter Stokkebye blends in bulk jars. Bought two ounces. Out of the bag the aroma was strong and the tobacco was moist. I had no idea it would smoke so well. With 2 matches I smoked it 2/3 through the bowl. Suprising because it was so moist. The flavor gives way half way through to more tobacco taste. Upon smoking it tasted like it might have the complexity of three tobaccos. Was glad to note above that indeed it did contain some Virginia, from Zimbabwe of all places. The price, ease of staying lit, and the happiness of an unexpected "find" rate the blend high with me. I've smoked it in two other pipes and it was consistant in all. With time, and the mellowing of the flavoring, could this tobacco get even better toward the bottom of the bag? I think I did well for my first Stokkebye bulk blend. Initally it was a 4 star blend, but to compare it with my other ratings, it's recommended, but not a highly my other 4 star picks. This tobacco had been a 3 and 4 star performer for me, but to be fair to the other tobaccos I've tried and smoked, it drops to 2 stars.

Mild, in both tobacco taste and the whisper of sweet highland malt. I personally like my smokes a bit more stout, but if you're looking for a soft, sweet smoke, this is a very good one. For me, as both a scotch and tobacco lover, this blend scratches neither itch.

A whiskey aromatic with light whiskey flavor that's slightly sweet. A decent smoke, cool and dry. I actually prefer the regular whiskey blend to this one. Too much black Cavendish for me in this one, it tends to take away the whiskey flavor somewhat. Quality of the tobacco is very good. Something about some PS tobaccos is that they seem slightly rough or raw at times and they are always better with age. This one to me is just ok, could be better.

3/5 smooth, dry smoke, but little in the way of robust flavor I would expect from a highland blend. Room note was pleasant, but the flavor didn’t match the smell. Cool dry smoke, and I would recommend it on that count alone. Took hardly no time at all to dry out on the serving tray before packing the pipe. Someone will love this blend, but it’s not me. Nothing wrong with it, but nothing great either.
