HU Tobacco Louisiana Broken
(3.77)
“Louisiana Broken“ - a name that obliges. “Louisiana Broken“ is a Virginia ready rubbed flake, its Virginia grades pressed for an optimal maturation process. “Louisiana Broken“ is balanced with a good bit of perique and a touch of Kentucky. Robust, bold, expressive, but at the same time sweet and creamy is how you could describe this blend. Full of character and in best tradition of the craft, this tobacco offers pure pleasure of smoking for relaxed moments. It is a must for perique aficionados and a dream come true for those who love distinctive tobacco blends. The Spirit of Louisiana is interpreted by “Louisiana Broken“ in a traditional way, but also full of the joys of life.

Round and creamy with a sweet taste while definitely not for the faint hearted is the best way to describe this very essential blend from Hans . I won't try to compare it to another blend on the market because i can't . The very essence of this ready rubbed tobacco is lying in a game called Subtlety.Nothing is straight forward in this blend , on the contrary it's a harmony that will fill your sences because of his complexity .You will taste a bit of every component even if the main game here is VaPer , because the addition of Kentucky was quite intelligently mixed in . It adds to the sweetness of this blend a slight taste of bitterness . I know it sounds in contradiction with sweet but that's what i meant by saying it's subtle and complex. Really not an easy task when you take in consideration the smooth and creamy body with the nic kick it provides .
A blend you see a lot of brainstorming in it .

Delicious, LB with perique added does add some punch, warm and smooth, medium nicotine strength, perfect for me. I found it similar to the Mac Baren Royal Twist, slightly more expensive, and can pick it up any time of day.

I am always on a perpetual hunt for the perfect Va/Per and this blend has instantly found itself at the top of my list. This is everything I want from a Va/Per with a hefty dose of perique, high quality Virginias, and a touch of complexity from the Kentucky. The pièce de résistance is the creaminess of this blend. That creamy note just wraps the figgy, spicy, smoky, woodiness together in a perfect blanket. I don't have much more to say than that this blend is perfection.
