Strong Chill Smoke

bowl. Burns cool and slow. Could use a little dry time, but not too much. I cut a flake into small cubes and go to town. Nice hour-long smoke. Excellent in warmer weather if a stout burley doesn’t suit you. Perfect after-dinner blend. All I can say is, wow! Peterson, you did good....Read More
Wonderful Plum/Blueberry Muffin

This is a dessert flake to say the least. I recommend aging this in a jar for about six months to a year to really get the perfect smoke 🔥

Sip it slow. Description says it has a plum topping but I get notes more akin to a warm blueberry muffin. Quite enjoyable! Most reviewers are saying medium for the vitamin N amount. I found it strong for my tolerance level. Believe it was a 2021 tin.

more subtle in the smoke especially about a quarter into the bowl. This is actually enjoyable and don’t regret my decision. If you’ve been thinking about getting it and never do, id say just go for it....Read More

ughout the entire smoke and it compliments the natural flavors of the tobacco wonderfully. Highly recommend if you are looking to dabble in the world of VaBurs....Read More

Average VaBur

n plum taste lasts from third to half of the bowl then closer to the end of the tin it disappear after several puffs. Sweet fruitlike taste remains all the time though.
Tobacco is classical VaBur with rather good Virginias. But instead of synergy of Virginias and Burleys it is more of dominance fight with infrequent moments of typical Burley harshness breaking through.
Toppings instead of simply adding sweetness behave almost as the third component diminishing Virginias which is not to my liking at all.
The blend tasted best in medium and medium to large apple or pot shaped pipes. I did not notice any difference in taste between briar and meerschaum pipes.
Altogether it is rather decent VaBur. It is definitely smokable. But in all honesty I prefer somewhat sweet and nutty taste of Irish Flake despite all its strength....Read More
Dry Time...

The flavor is good on this but I had a hell of a time getting it to light and stay lit. I had to unpack the bowl and let it dry first and then it ran fine. Good smoke, but there's so many options out there I don't know if this one was worth the effort.
