Gauntleys Of Nottingham Red Lace

A punchy blend of fruity red Virginias, spicy perique and deep earthy Kentucky. As with most of our previous perique blends, red lace uses a large helping (20%) of this precious and powerful leaf. At this level, perique is sour and very spicy, so a sweet fragrant base of red Virginia is used to create a balance of these contrasting tastes. The earthy Kentucky is added to give the blend some depth & body, like a good stout or porter.
