I don't know what the problem is. It made me sneeze and I threw it out. I'll come back to it later after I give up the Ryan perique cigarettes for good. Maybe then I'll be man enough for this minor straw/perique whiff.

This was one of the first Va/Perique tobaccos I tried.
The sweetness of the Va is apparent while it mingles with the Perique, though the Perique dominated the show. As a pleasant surprise, I didn't get bitten - I expected to becuse of the Va.
On the whole, I guess it was just a bit too mild of a flavor for me. I tried DGT to see if that would get me more. It changed a bit, but not for the better. The tobacco just left me wanting something.
***UPDATE*** Having recently read some of the reviews here, and having stumbled across a fresh tin of LNF, I decided to try it again.
When I first tried it, there was a full Perique flavor. That was an aged sample from a friend. The new stuff had virtually no Perique, and also had very little Va flavor. Maybe aging makes the difference with this blend, or maybe the product has actually been changed. I don't know which, but I do know that it has moved into the "Not my cup of tea" range.
