Sutliff: Uno 50g Pipe Tobacco
Product Number: 003-442-0065
The inaugural blend in Sutliff's Birds of a Feather series, Uno is a singular mixture presented in an elegant crumble cake format and comprises eight unique blending components. The mixture takes lift from a bed of Red Virginias and soars into a flavorful stratosphere of tangy St. James Perique, novel Katerini Perique — Oriental leaf that's undergone a lengthy barrel-aged fermentation process — and smoky Latakia to accentuate the spicier, more piquant leaves. A rich Dark-Fired Kentucky is added with a gentle hand to complete the blend, contributing further strength and balance. Uno's flavor profile is deep and rich with notes of dark stone fruits and raisins, further brought to life with a lingering peppery zest and a subtle campfire smokiness.
The Birds of a Feather series is a limited-edition, mini-series crafted by Sutliff and developed by Danish master blender Per Jensen. All blends in the line are characterized by the inclusion of select rare tobaccos, including Rustica, St. James Perique, Katerini Perique, and other specially sourced varietals, with each mixture highlighting a specific leaf or pairing of leaves for unmatched flavor and body. Every tin in the collection is adorned with avian-inspired artwork, giving flight to the Birds of a Feather theme.

ed. Taste is medium to full and consistent, with notes of sweet, smoky, toast, wood, orange peel/zest, spices, fermented sour, mildly spicy, earth, floral, herbal incense, mild bitter nuts, citrus, hay, mild dark fruit, a brown sugary sweet background note, and a mostly smooth and mildly spicy retro. Oriental/Turkish is leading with Virginia and Black Cavendish closely supporting. Latakia and Perique supporting when needed, and Kentucky is mostly buried in the fray, only getting glimpses now and again. Room note is pleasant to tolerable, and aftertaste is great....Read More

Darn good now... But 5-10 years will turn this pumpkin into a stage coach

n its spicy flavor profile. To my tastes at least.
Packs well, and man does this stuff take its time burning. I loadex my Pete 307 less than half way and gosh darn its been 20 to 25 mins and I'm barely half thru it.
Now the real treat will be in 5 but preferably 10 years from now, this will be absolutely LEGENDARY. My only regret in life thus far is only buying 2 skinking tins, and being so curious that I HAD to open one of them.... Sigh.
Track some down and DONT open them, contact me and I'll send you a few bowls....Read More

Uno the Owl…a very wise bird!!!

ORPS brother Chris Ford were two of the lucky folks being used as taste testers. Those six brand new blends were developed in as many days by Per Georg Jensen of Mac Baren. He flew over with a few Mac Baren blending tobaccos to use and came to taste and blend a totally new one to him and the world!!! In a word I can rate all 6 blends, success!!! Unfortunately for you folks trying to explain what is in these blends and how they taste will take many more words so please forgive me for the long read but do know this first to be released one of the six is worth the effort. It should be released soon and again will be called Uno with an owl on the label, all the blends created in those six insane day will feature a bird on the label.
In a word this blend is Unique!!! Sometimes that word gets over used but here it’s true for sure as one of the ingredients has only been made this once and likely never will be again. But this blend is more than unique, it’s balanced and delicious and complex and it’s rare…very rare as once it’s gone don’t expect it to come back and there isn’t much of it. I am unsure how to classify this blend so I am not going to try as how does one put Katerini Perique in a pigeon hole? But it sure tastes great in this blend and when stuffed into your pipe bowl!!!
Yes Katerini Perique, Katerini Oriental that has gone through the Perique process!!! The resulting leaf is not exactly Oriental or Perique, it’s unique and leads to the name of the blend, Uno as it’s one of a kind and a one time only kind of a thing. Mark Ryan, former owner of D&R Tobaccos, is the mad but smart man behind this as owner and master of L.A. Poche Perique Tobacco Company and the start of this tale. He obtained a sizable batch of Katerini Oriental leaf and decided to try and process it as he does Perique!!! Not knowing what the result might be, or if indeed it would result in anything more than a mess and a waste of good leaf, he proceeded with the months long process. The result is both magnificent and disappointing, magnificent in the part of the batch that created the unique leaf that resulted, but sad as a large portion of the batch also failed and just was a loss. Fortunately the part that successfully fermented has been blended into this truly special blend by Per Georg Jensen of Mac Baren here in the USA at Sutliff Tobacco.
In the course of six days Per first tasted and assessed this new tobacco and came up with this blend and two others to highlight its unique properties and three others that are unique in their own right. For now we will focus on this blend. Katerini Perique has a dusty grayish green appearance and a scent that is neither oriental nor Perique, again unique. The taste is not peppery like Perique can be but definitely has the dark fruits taste going for it, also a very delicate herbal taste that’s very pleasant. I personally can only handle so much regular Perique as it tingles my tongue and lips even in modest doses and in large doses it becomes a problem. Interestingly the Katerini Perique doesn’t do that to me, for me it’s the perfect Perique that adds sweetness and dark fruitiness without the pepper or the tingles.
In Uno it’s added to three different Virginias, one for sure sweet and somewhat bready, another more grassy and a third with a touch of acid or citrus to balance the blend. The Katerini Perique along with some regular Perique that between them add a lot of deep dark fruit, raisins and dried plums to me, with just a hint of spice and I mean a hint. There is some Dark Fired Kentucky for a touch of smoke and depth as well as a touch of nicotine. There is burley for a nice balance and some unflavored Cavendished Burley as well and with the Dark Fired Kentucky they give it a very rich mouth feel and density to the smoke.
It makes for a rich and complex smoke that when I first smoked it only hours old was a bit easier to sense and pick out the individual components, again it was literally no more than about 48 hours old. It was pressed into a fairly loose but compact cake and sliced into thick flakes that rub out easily. A decent moisture level as is but I rub it out and allow it to dry a bit and now it’s had a bit of time to age, about 2-3 months, it’s melded a bit. The individual components and flavors have had time to marry and the result is wonderful. Though the individual tastes are harder to pick out they work together in harmony and make for a very enjoyable smoke. Rich, complex, full in body and mouth feel, can’t bite or be harsh. A truly rare and unique treat!!!...Read More

Is this really esoterica...

the dark fruit was present in the back. Plus it would come through in the forefront at times. This is a very well rounded smoke. I would compare this to Stonehaven. Hopefully it wont be as rare to find as stonehaven. Also, a work of caution... if you smoke it to fast you might have group of Russians snick up behind you. Relax and take your time. This could be an all day smoke for the experienced smoker. I love it! Definitely worth the 5 stars....Read More

This is a very fine blend. Very full flavored and satisfying. Does this remind anyone else of the old McClleland Black Shag from their 221 B series?

Sounds Amazing

The different tobaccos in this blend sound amazing! I’m looking forward to this and the rest of the “Birds of a Feather” series. I like that they chose to add Latakia to a limited edition tobacco, as most are VAs, Burlys, or spirit aged aros.
