🔹 Overview
Triple Play is part of G. L. Pease’s New World Collection, a series of bold, traditional American-style blends. This is a dense plug tobacco featuring three key components—Virginias, Dark-Fired Kentucky, and Perique—crafted for smokers who enjoy rich, earthy flavors and the hands-on ritual of slicing and preparing plug tobacco.
🌿 Composition & Cut
Tobaccos:
Bright & Red Virginias – natural sweetness and tangy complexity.
Dark-Fired Kentucky – smoky, meaty depth and strength.
Perique – peppery spice and dark fruit notes.
Cut: Plug format—a solid block of pressed leaf. Requires slicing or rubbing out before smoking, offering flexibility in preparation and a slow, cool burn.
🍂 Flavor Profile
Tin Note: Deep, earthy aroma with smoky undertones, hints of leather, and subtle sweetness.
Taste:
First Light: Bold Kentucky smokiness with Virginia sweetness.
Mid-Bowl: Perique adds spice and fig-like fruitiness; Virginias provide balance.
Finish: Strong, dry, and satisfying with lingering smoky-sweet complexity.
Overall Character: A robust, full-bodied blend—powerful yet nuanced, ideal for seasoned smokers.
🧭 Strength & Room Note
Strength: Medium-strong to strong (nicotine is significant).
Flavor Intensity: Full-bodied and hearty.
Room Note: Smoky and robust—typical of dark-fired blends.
🔥 Smoking Experience
Burn Quality: Cool and slow when sliced thin and packed properly.
Moisture: Usually ready to smoke; a short dry time after slicing can improve performance.
Technique: Slice to desired thickness—thin for quicker burn, thicker for a longer, richer smoke.
🌟 Aging Potential
Ages exceptionally well—cellaring enhances sweetness and smooths the bold Kentucky and Perique character. Many enthusiasts recommend 3–5 years for peak complexity.
📦 Packaging
Tin Size: 2 oz (≈56.7 g), also available in 8 oz tins.
Presentation: Dense plug inside a round tin, wrapped in paper.
Triple Play is perfect for smokers who appreciate strong, earthy blends with a spicy twist and the tactile experience of plug preparation. It’s bold, satisfying, and ideal for cool evenings or contemplative moments.
