A very mild and slightly sweet aromatic blend of unusual fragrance and flavor with just a hint of chocolate. This mixture smokes cool and dry.

Blend No. 102 is an old school style aromatic by an old school pipe shop. Add that to the fact that the folks at Peretti's really know burley and it all adds up to a great blend. Blend No. 102 has a nice herbal light flavor to go along with a base of quality tobaccos. Any fan of the older style aromatic tobaccos should have this on the "must try" list; or if you want to venture out and try a lightly sweet aromatic unlike most on the market today, this one's for you. Recommended.

This is a silky-smooth American blend, with Turkish and a smidgeon of Latakia. The Burley base is superb. The proportions of condimental leaf make this a real pleasure. The cut is typical for Peretti's: I can scoop my pipe in the pouch, tamp, light, and I'm on my merry way! A very soothing blend.

Grassy, haylike and almost herbal upon first light, 102 settles down in a very pleasurable smoke with the flavor and fullness intensifying as you progress down the bowl. Another great blend from the ?burley boys? at Peretti?s. All burley lovers are advised to try Peretti?s classic burley blends.
A cigarette is to be smoked. A cigar is to be enjoyed. A pipe is to be savored.
I rate this tobacco 9.0 out of 10.

This tobacco is a classic old-fashioned American "aromatic" Burley blend that was popular before Black Cavendish was invented. I would bet it is made of Burley, Virginia, a bit of Turkish and a dash of Latakia, all with a light top note. Medium bodied, easy and clean burning, with a pleasant aroma. Your dad's pipe (or your Grandpa's pipe) so-to-speak. In some ways this blend reminds me of Iwan Ries' Three Star Blue. Do try it if you are looking for a tobacco of this genre. Excellent quality from a blender of fine old-style Burley blends.
