Peter Stokkebye Champagne (No.35)

First off later with all these old reviews that are just not the case for all of you that are reading this review for 2018 and can assure you this blend is actually very good. The cut and mixture of this blend is right on, it is light and fluffy with a wonderful smell of a berry and mild nutty tones with a tangy zing to it. The Virginia is noticeable to the nose and when you smoke it. My favorite thing to do with this blend is sniff it in the jar, its just one of those blends I love smelling but when it comes to smoking it??? Smooth and mildly sweet but consistent that's the main thing it keeps delivering its taste and gives off a well rounded tobacco taste that is smooth and robust the further you make your way down the bowl. Beautiful tobaccos that make for a beautiful eye pleasing blend but taste as good as it looks. I have read many reviews where people are so disappointed it does not taste anything like champagne BUT it is the name not the way its supposed to taste. The tobaccos are of high quality and not goopy, its actually a really good level of moisture and can be dried out to a perfect level in less than 10 minutes. I enjoy it with a cup of black coffee because it goes really good with it and I am sure it would go great with teas as well. It does not bite at all unless you smoke it hot and is very smooth to inhale which is nice for a aromatic, it DOES NOT taste chemically that's a bunch of bull and is not saturated in PG, you actually get a velvety smoke instead of horrible steam. I highly recommend this pipe tobacco blend because its freaking good! If your new to pipe smoking I can assure you this blend is very enjoyable and has a unique and mild taste that is not over powering and delivers a nice tobacco taste to boot. Peter Stokkebye did a great job with this one hands down I give this one two thumbs up. In all fairness every person has different taste buds which is why I do not use fancy words or try to describe pipe tobacco blends in a way that makes one scratch there head when that blend taste nothing like what is being said and makes me question sometimes if the review is actualy legite. It is also not fair when a yuppy pipe smoking snob that lets say only smokes latakia and high grade Virginia's (nothing else) and knowing this is giving a review on a burley or super sweet aromatic and keeps using words like OTC and Drug Store that will just throw off a new pipe smoker and might keep them from smoking a epic pipe tobacco!!! Most of these bad reviews are also done by amateur pipe smokers that have smoked maybe 10-12 different blends and now they are experts BEWARE, a well seasoned pipe smoker will still give a review that is leveled and admit its not there cup of tea but will not knock it by saying pipe yuppy remarks, I'm just sharing this to new pipe smokers so they can actually enjoy the reviews on this website and be able to tell the real reviews from the trendy young yuppy pipe smoking snob reviews, there are many, many great pipe tobacco blends, some are just ok and maybe not the best but for good reasons. I have taken some time to read many reviews and have noticed this trend. You can trust CnS Pipe reviews I promise to tell you the truth as best as I can, thanks for reading this post and keep on sailing the seas of pipe tobacco blends, Over and Out...

To Some It Up V2.0 This is flue cured Virginia's and the Virginia shines right on through, the burley is what gives this blend the nutty taste and keeps it burning just a tad bit slower. There are two different kinds of Cavendish in this one is used for flavor and the other also contributes to the burn rate for a all in all well rounded smoke. It has a light berry topping that is just strong enough to be noticed but does not over power the blend and a slight topping of a hazelnut that I can detect. Berries amd nuts with a Virginia dominate pipe tobacco, that's what your getting and it taste great because it is light but complex enough to make you wonder as it smokes down the bowl. Its made in Europe and is a Danish style aromatic containing no chemicals because they regulate much harsher over there than in the United States. The only thing I recommend is to store it really good because it will dry out on you over time but because of the high grade tobaccos used, it will also age well and become smoother but it will loose its flavor slightly other then that this pipe tobacco is enjoyable and has a interesting taste.
