Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation: Fathers, Friends & Fire Batch 002 Virginia Perique Flake 2oz Pipe Tobacco

Product Number: 003-553-0031

Now in its fourth generation of producing fine pipe tobaccos, the Stokkebye family tradition began with Erik Peter Stokkebye, born in 1855, and continues to this day with bespoke blends, many paying homage to important dates in their family history.

Released around Father's Day of 2024, Erik Stokkebye's Fathers, Friends & Fire line of pipe tobaccos was developed as a collaboration with Cornell & Diehl, made specifically to celebrate the brotherhood and joy often found while smoking. Regardless of one's relationship, the Fathers, Friends & Fire line of tobacco gives plenty of opportunity to deepen the bonds between smokers, perfect for special occasions or even just the occasion of everyday life. Available in several different blends, this particular mixture is Batch 002, the Virginia Perique Flake, and it comprises a flake-cut combination of Black Cavendish, Burley, Old Belt Red Virginias, and an ample portion of St. James Perique: offering a well-rounded, naturally sweet smoke with subtle notes of stone fruit.

This blend is now one of my go to’s along with Bayou Morning Flake and Red Carpet. Flavor is rich and robust and burns nicely. C&D red belt virginias and st james perique in my opinion are on their own level.
Flawless!

Merry Christmas to me! Pipe and a tin of this showed up this morning and got unwrapped immediately. The tin date is 5/30/24 and the tin aroma is incredible! Fruity, sweet and begging further investigation. It’s a flake cut but my impatience had me just tearing off enough to load about 1/2 a bowl to try out. The estate Savinelli Spring 703 that shared the journey was ready to smoke so off we went. I’m sorta new to VAPR’s but if this is representative of the species, I’m hooked. It lit easily even though it seemed moist. It burs well with a fruity, fragrant aroma and sweet, tasty smoke of just the right strength. This combo will go straight into my pipe bag and I hope it lasts through the holidays as it’s an irresistible smoke that'll need to be kept on hand. Sorta what I hoped for and it turned out to be just right.🎅🏼...Read More

Ordered a tin to try and boy! Am I hooked. There are so many nice notes to this smoke, I feel like I had dessert before dinner...the perique is really spicy sweet like a good chipotle sauce and the reds are just right!! The burleys and cavendish add that nutty sweet base that the other leafs dance on. I will be ordering more of this regularly....Read More
WOW! Droppin Those Hits!

Maybe its just me, I probably wasn't paying attention but, I had no clue this was coming. I saw the ad and watched Shane for a minute, just to make sure this wasn't some fruity, aromatic tartbomb with only subtle notes of burley and perique. I took a BIG risk and bought 10 tins and boy am I glad I did! Oohohooo man! Yeeupp! Outstanding this flake is! I mean absolutey delicious! I couldn't get enough after finishing a bowl. This stuff IS the stuff of legends! I know I'm being over ther top right now and Any guy who likes, loves or is a burlaholic is going ta lovingly adore this blend! Upon tin opening, it's boozey! Smells like some kind of whiskey. I don't mind, i love whisky! Keep in mind alcoholic toppings like this are going to fade away and can meld or add in a very subtle way, a very mature and piquant note or nuance to a blend. Especially if it's an Exceptional blend, such as this one. This is another blend that smokes well in a smallishto medium sized chamber. Char light is smoky, burnt sugar. Tamped and settled is smooth and a little sweet and the flavors of a really well done vapbur start to unfold. My Lord, is this guud! The Vas are there and are deep and bready but are probably being subdued a bit by the black cavendish or maybe the other way around even, depending on the Vas used but, I'll tell ya what's not being subdued, is the burley and perique!Dark, Rich, Burnt Chocalate burley that reaches cigar notes at times throughout the smoke. The perique is smooth, rich, with some pep, not a lot, but its there, and it's Pungent! I'd say the dominant players here are the dark burley and the perique and the way those two are playing with everything else in this blend, you'd of thought you were sitting court-side back in the 80's watching Bird and Jordan battle it out in one of the most unforgettable games in history! That's taking it a step further but, I assure you, the quality of leaf in this blend and the component ratios were done with Championship Smoke written all over it! MANIFIQUE!!! Yeah yeah ok, maybe your put off by the thought of the black cavendish and maybe they could've done without it but, then Would this be the same great Championship Smoke that i'm ranting and raving about? The other thing ya gotta think about is, this IS an Erik Stokkebye blend so, is it European black cav or American black cav? Cuz if it's Euro black cav it would make sense being it's an Erik Stokkebye blend. We know the American cav is burley and would only smooth out a blend adding only dark undertones and not much complexity, Unless done right of course and Ingeniously I might add. The Euro is a stoved Va with deep, rich burnt caramel notes that retains its virginia calling card with a bright bready, grassy, and with just enough tang on the end of it. I might also add this blend burns so even and smooth all the way down with very little moisture left in the bowl. Man this made my night! Shoot it's gonna make my days as long as I have some around to smoke! Stokkebye and C&D have just made a triple double if you ask me, and are MVPs in the tobacco game! You have to admit it! Or don't but, for the more experienced more well-rounded smokers who have a Wide appreciation for all genres and types of leaf, even though they may have their favored leaf, will know there is something very special here. I commend both companys for putting out such a rich, comforting and delectibly delicious smoke in this Batch 002! You guys got it right! I have to go and watch my pockets now as I have yet again another unepected expense on my excel sheet;). I am definately enjoying heartily, what these two companies were going for in this blend and i can imagine how this will age because of what this beautiful perique will do to the other quality components in this blend. I love me some vapburs! BIG Thanks to Erik Stokkebye and C&D for bringing forth another delicious and complex comfort blend to add to our rotations and restoring faith in the tobacco world in a time where quality blends are constantly getting the ax for no good reason. Your business is much appreciated! And a big thanks to Smoking Pipes for bringing it home!...Read More

This may be a hit for some but I’m not one into the gym socks perique and this tastes and smells like dirty gym socks so if you like that it will be a hit.
