Samuel Gawith Pure Louisiana Perique
(3.00)
Pure high quality ribbon cut Louisiana Perique. 100% Perique aged and fermented in hickory whiskey barrels for five years which gives it a fruity, slightly vinegary aroma. Cultivated by farmer Percy Martin in Louisiana it is considered the truffle of tobaccos. Predominately used for blending you would need to be brave to smoke it on its own!

Actually smelled great out of the bag. Had some age on it so it was a bit dry. Light up was fine and aroma was pretty good. Taste was not bad but weak at the beginning. As I went through the bowl the flavor got a little stronger. Got a pepper rush about halfway through the bowl and again near the end of the smoke. Yes I know this is to mix but I wanted to try straight! You will get a nicotine rush as well. I doubt if I will buy again unless I use for mixing. I will say the room note was outstanding. Just could not pull out the flavor I wanted except pepper rushes. Will use remainder for mixing.
