look for tobacco that is enjoyable from first light to the bottom of the bowl and leaves you wanting more. One where you don’t want your pipe time to end. This cannot be said for a lot of tobaccos out there. But Penny Farthing hits the mark for me. I recommend it for those who enjoy good VaPers. Prov. 3:5,6...Read More

bo you throw in the synergy of an interesting flavor profile. Master Pease crafting in a very subtle package. If I ever happen to have the distinct pleasure of meeting Mr Pease I would like to ask him why he does not offer this nor Horizons nor any of the Zeitgeist series in anything larger than a 2 oz tin. Aside from that - a personal thank you to a man I will probably never meet.
Was smoked out of a long stemmed clay with a smallish bowl. Pairs surprisingly well with Irish Whiskey. In fact I feel like it did the whiskey a favor.
Update: only a week later and I had to come back and reaffirm my initial thoughts. This is just fantastic. The name I think is silly because IMHO this, when smoked in a narrow tall bowl, is a cut above Escudo and deserves something more. Because it is a shag cut the flavors are immediately accessible And give you access to that magical intersection between Virginia and perique. wonder why there's only like three or four quality blends available in shag.
Update 2: several months after buying and smoking this stuff is so tasty. I know it sounds crazy to compare this to Escudo and say it's better but I lit up a 8-year-old couple of discs of Escudo recently and sorry to say for ease of smoke and taste I prefer this....Read More

Hairlike thin shag. Moisture perfect for smoking right now. Smells spicy and dense. Malty, bready, with a just a little sweet, and spice from the Kentucky. I particularly enjoyed the few rolled leaf bits in the tin.
Great Blend

the taste. Nothing that would push its way into my rotation. Not a hater, it was pleasant enough, but it missed something, at least for me....Read More

oral, tangy citrus, sour fermented vegetation, toast, wood, mild barbecue smoke, rich earth, sugar, savory, zesty, orange peel, dry, spicy, a semi-sweet lemon grassy background note, and a peppery retro. Virginia is leading with Perique and Kentucky supporting. Room note is tolerable, and aftertaste is great....Read More
