Personally, I think that D-7485 is a better tobacco in this vein. They are very similar. I think D-9575 has more Virginia in it. An enjoyable smoke.

I knew nothing of the L. J. Peretti Company until I read the reviews of this fine tobacconist's blends on tobaccoreviews It has certainly been a pleasurable discovery.

Blend 9575 is as straight forward and honest as a pipe tobacco can get. It packs with ease and has a perfect moisture content. Blend 9575 burns nice and cool, you get a fair nicotine hit about mid bowl. The Va's and the Latikia give this blend a fair bit of body and charater but don't over power the smooth burleys. I will definitely add this to my morning baccy rotation. Can't wait to try the other five blends that came with this order!

I was in Peretti's buying a pound of British Blend and I sampled a bowl of this. I them walked out with four ounces. The burleys make a great base for this blend and it has fast become one of my favorites!!!

It burns nicely with little or no bite. The flavor is consistant through to the bottom of the bowl. It replaced British Blend as my favorite Peretti Blend.

My wife purchased a tin of this for me in honor of our anniversary. I had heard about this blend being a throwback to years ago when American burley tobaccos ruled the range here in the US. So, I was glad to be given the opportunity to try it.

The tin aroma speaks of some small amount of latakia, but the dominant tin aroma is of musty burleys, grassy virginia and possibly honey. The tobacco was easy to light and never has need anything in the way of relights. To fill the pipes I just gravity fed it into the bowl and tamped (a little on the firm side).

The flavor remains the same throughout the bowl and leaves no dottle, just fine grey/white ash. Outstanding smoke, lightly sweet, the taste of hazel nut (though there is no hazel nut in the blend) and slightly honey-like. I an understand why peretti sells a great deal of this blend. If this truly is a throw-back to the "old-style" US burlies, then I wish I had been a pipe smoker back in the 50's. Highest marks - a real achievement in blending.

This blend is a classic. Smooth Burley, with hints of hay,green wood, and of course campfire smoke. A great outdoor smoke, this burns cool and evenly all the way to the end. This is not a complex blend. But it is satisfying, with a certain rustic charm. If you are fond of the American-English genre, this is a winner. Best in a large bore pipe.
