Peter Stokkebye PS 702 Burley Pipe Tobacco

Found the Peter Stokkebye 702 to have too much of a nicotine hit for my taste. The tobacco burned well, slow and steady, but also had some tongue bit. I've been experimenting with non-aromatic tobaccos and while PS 702 had good flavor, it burned too hot for my personal taste, but the nicotine was the deciding factor for me. Won't try this one again.

I have been trying my hand at blending. I have found PS702 really adds density and body to my blends without upstaging my featured base tobacco. I only put a small amount, <9g per 50g does the trick. I would not blend without it.

Bought this along with some virginia because I wanted to try these tobaccos in their most basic forms to see what characteristics each has. I was surprised at how satisfying this is. I find myself smoking it alone/straight and really enjoying it. I'm not very eloquent in describing tastes and profiles but to me it's got a nice, nutty, honest mild smoke flavor. I also bought some Stokkebye PS41 cube cut burley which I do like, but I prefer this 702.

Love this stuff. Started with 8 ounces to try it out. I now have several pounds cellaring away. #1 in my opinion.

Smooth burley with a light earthy, nutty, and toasty flavors. Intended for blending but also a good smoke straight and untopped.
