🔎 Key Attributes

🌿 Smoking Experience

• Flavor: Starts with Virginia’s natural sweetness, layered with peppery spice, dark fruit, and wine-like undertones from Perique.

• Body: Medium-bodied, richer and more complex than Gold, but smoother than Dark.

• Room Note: Aromatic and slightly pungent, thanks to Perique’s distinctive character.

• Best For: Smokers who enjoy complex blends with natural sweetness and spice, ideal for those seeking variety beyond standard Virginia or Burley mixes.

⚠️ Considerations

• Strength: Balanced, but Perique adds intensity that may surprise those used to milder blends.

• Availability: Less common than Gold, Medium, or Dark, so bulk bags may be harder to source.

• Preparation: Fine cut makes rolling easy, though the Perique’s boldness may be an acquired taste.
