A long time favorite. Rubbed, plug cut burley based mixture of selected Carolinas and Virginias. An extremely cool, no bite blend of fine flavor and appealing aroma.

Jack Peterson is a great old style blender who recently retired. I've tried many of his blends and Double Eagle is my favorite but Golden Eagle is a close second. To me it is a higher grade version of old time cube cut burley favorites like Edgeworth, Kentucky Club Mild and others. Mr. Peterson's blend all have a common thread that runs through them. Something that ties them all together that I think identifies a truly great tobacco man. Golden Eagle has a great old time burley taste but with something more. Cocoa for sure but something else. It has a bit more topping than Double Eagle but is very pleasant. I'm an all day smoker and old time crushed plug is my choice. Golden Eagle, like Double Eagle is smooth, slow burning, great tasting and leaves a great room note. I couldn't recommend it any higher. 4 stars all the way. I am glad I stocked up but wish this was still in production.

A very smooth and delightful tobacco! This was my first time smoking a cube cut burley and I must say it was one of the best experiences I have ever had. The flavor was mild and unobtrusive and i was surrounded with sweet smoke. I smoked this outside on my break at work and after I went inside to buy something to drink my coworkers said my pipe went out and hoped that planned on relighting so I obliged them.Upon relight there was not any funky burned taste and the tobacco smoked as if it was a fresh bowl. This was the first time I ever smoked any tobacco that Jack blended and I must say I am glad that I did order a sample pack from him.I hope in the future I can buy more from him and not have to rely on his generous sample offers!
