I bought two tins of this a week ago and tried one this evening. Upon opening the tin, I noticed an extremely moist doilie and this had the strongest worm dirt smell I have ever encountered. Before I begin my brief review, I have read quite a number of reviews that call this fake. This is my opinion and you can take it with a grain of salt if you wish. If it looks like perique, smells like perique and tastes like perique then it is perique. Is this Saint James Parish perique? Probably not as most perique is Acadian perique anyway. There is an excellent article from pipesmagazine.com dated Jan 2010 about perique and I am paraphrasing but to maintain supply and consistency many years ago Kentucky Green River Burley was mixed in with Saint James perique and processed. This was referred to as Acadian perique and was and is used in most pipe blends. Also, Saint James perique is a lot more expensive. I added some of the McConnell to Match Elizabethan and it really amped it up quite a bit. I also smoked a third of a bowl as is and did get somewhat of a head rush. This is good as a condiment to tobaccos and I am no expert but have bought pure perique in the past and to me this is perique. So you can put that in your pipe and smoke it. 😊

THIS IS NOT PERIQUE. As far as I know Perique this is not one of them....... But is a strong perique like tobacco and almost interesting one. Take care, is very moist and you should left a little for a better taste. Anyway is not a regular pipe tobacco and you should act accordingly.

I blended a small batch of Virgina, Perique, and Lataka, just for couple bowls, man, that peppery feeling you get in your nose, throat, and maybe other parts, is unreal, go easy, the tin says it could be smoke alone, I found a pinch is alot, But I like it.

As good as fake Perique (which is pretty much all you can get these days) can get. It does what you expect it to do.
