Our fullest English mixture yet. This blend is a combination of our No.12 full English and a generous amount of Louisiana Perique. For those who enjoy full English style mixtures with Perique.

PaulB has a plethora of wonderful blends that have their own personality, a good thang in my book. It is so interesting how different houses manifest their unique styles, and Park Lane is just recently one of my very favorites.

The perique in 15 amplify the full taste over the otherwise similar #12. The resulting strength, on top of a very prominent Cyprian Latakia theme, makes this a nighttime puff for me. I like to sit down while smoking these, so I can savor the complexities of the interweaving tastes which are driven by the Turkish, of which I gather there are several. #15 is not sweet in the way that some Orientals show themselves. The smoke itself is creamy and rich, and almost tactile.

I no longer begrudge the difficulties of procuring the Dunhills which used to be my staples.

In the course of almost 30 years of pipe smoking there have been a few blends that "got me" after the first few puffs. All the others had to grow me.

This is one of those "Gotcha" blends for me - as soon as I started smoking it I knew I had to have more.

This is a Full Spicy English that has a lot of delicious Perique in it. I have to disagree with one of the Reviewers as I think the additional Perique is added with the perfect touch.

The addition of this condiment lifts this Full English to a new level giving a cool spicy smoke that is full but not overwhelming.

Due to its strength it's a night cap kind of a smoke for me but others might enjoy it anytime of day.

Super!
