Best all around blend
March 05, 2024
By: Cameron O.
Product: G. L. Pease Sixpence 2oz
Personally this is my all time favorite blend. It's best when I don't have a specific blend family in mind, as this specific flavor is hard to pin down (at least for me). Definitely some brightness with the Virginia's but enough smokiness to keep you guessing. Personally I like bright and light tastes in the morning and smoky and robust in the evening, but this blend is a perfect combination of both IMO that's great for any time of day!...Read More

Mystery you want to solve
October 28, 2023
By: Nick B.
Product: G. L. Pease Sixpence 2oz
This one surprised me on how complex it was. Side note my tin was 2 years 8 months old. On selecting a blend i had on hand, i read reviews and was intrigued by the vague "things are happening", so i gave it a spin. Used an Atlay octo-skull Meerschaum that was decent sized; 6 inch long 2.2 inch high,1.8 inch wide, 0.7 inch bowl diameter, 1.3 inch bowl depth and as always used Nording keystones as i smoke relatively fast. The stages were crazy, i encountered 4. 1- The topping smelled like sparkling grape liqueur, but to me was almost cloudberry after dinner drink that coated the mouth and was sweet and deep. 2- The Kentucky decided it didn't like you and with friend perique was loud, bold spicy and in your face, very dry on the palate. 3- Kentucky after thought and seeing the carnage it caused said it was sorry and held hands with the perique making it the lead with the stone fruit flavor up front and it being meekly in the background. 4- the perique likes being the lead, some sweetness comes back with some mineral esque tartness akin to almost lemon zest. I don't recall having a blend be THIS complex and it thoroughly surprised me. Definitely worth a delve into this mystery...Read More

Another favorite

Again not a traditional vaper. But the addition of the dark fired elevates this one into the top tier of my shelf. I only critique is it does need at least a year to age before you pop the tin. When it's young it tends to be a little bit bity but if it's had at least a year to age before you open it up it becomes much more well-mannered...Read More

Only had it aged..
June 22, 2023
By: Brandon N.
Product: G. L. Pease Sixpence 2oz
I got a tin of this in 2018 and finally in 2023 opened it. I can’t speak for what it taste like “fresh” but I’ll have to find out soon. The rest of the reviews have all the colorful details so I’ll just say this is wonderful.

Update: it’s worth aging. Still good but better old.

Get the burn without the flavor
September 18, 2023
By: American AngloScot
Product: G. L. Pease Sixpence 2oz
The flavor of this blend seems very low key and mild. The characteristic sinus irritation of dark-fired comes though, but without the rich flavors which usually accompany it. I am not sure if the underlying taste would be better enjoyed if not accompanied by the moderate burning effect, or if that stimulation is the thing keeping this from tasting completely bland. Either way, this marriage of mild taste and insistent burn is not for me....Read More

Southern Comfort
April 09, 2023
By: Chris T.
Product: G. L. Pease Sixpence 2oz
The only thing I can add to the other reviews I've read, which don't mention it, is that to me the "spirit" added seems to be Southern Comfort (a whisky-flavored liqueur. ) I agree with others that it's strong on the nicotine; smaller bowls, for me.

The Darkness Consumes You

Product: G. L. Pease Sixpence 2oz
My all time favorite VaPer. And I think I have the DFK to thank. Rich, complex, sweet, and spicy. I could smoke this all day everyday. I predominantly smoke English blends, but this seduced me and I’m glad it did.

nice change of pace
December 04, 2022
By: JassonWB
Product: G. L. Pease Sixpence 2oz
Tin date 10 16 14, has notes of spicy, Rasin, and pungent sour. The broken flakes are brown and rub out nicely. Moisture is ok, no prep needed. Burns slow with few relights. The strength is medium and nic is medium. Flavoring is extremely mild, if there at all, I couldn't discern it. Taste is medium to full and consistent, with notes of very woody, floral, very spicy, earth, sour grass, mild lemon, baked bread, mild spiced fruit, mild bitter herbs, a mildly nutty background note, and a peppery retro. Virginias is leading with Perique supporting. Kentucky providing back up, and the flavoring got scared and ran away. Room note is pleasant to tolerable, and aftertaste is great....Read More

Hands off me booty ya filthy land lubbers! This be another truly delicious blend from that scurvy sea dogg Mr. Pease! And I absolutely love this Virginia blend! The tin note is so delicious, deep dark fruits, sweet earthy grassy Virginia’s, a lil smokiness, and a sweet boozy aroma that I believe to be rum! Yes it’s rum ya boot lickin bilge rats, cuz aye says it is, haharrrrrr! This blend smokes so smooth and cool, stays lit really well and has a delicious flavor and aroma, again sweet Virginia’s, deep fruits, a lil peppery perique, and some Smokey DFK! So escape yer boring life, pack a bowl of Six Pence and embark on a fantastic flavor voyage! Cheers!...Read More
