About This Pipe Tobacco

A traditional flake-cut pipe tobacco, Peterson's University Flake features Virginias and Burley that are pressed for several days into a plug before being sliced into thin, uniform flakes. The profile showcases the tobaccos' natural flavors, with a slight plum topping for complementing fruity sweetness and a pleasant room note.

At first I was not a huge fan of this blend, but after I let it dry longer than usual, it burned really well and created a much more flavorful experience.
Rich, Dark, and Exceptionally Satisfying

Product: Peterson University Flake 50g
Peterson University Flake is one of those tobaccos that immediately feels substantial. The Virginia foundation brings a natural sweetness and depth, while the Burley adds body, nuttiness, and a darker, more grounded character that keeps the blend from ever becoming too bright or delicate. What I enjoy most is the richness. There is a wonderful interplay of dark fruit, bread, earth, wood, and subtle cocoa-like notes, with just enough sweetness to round everything out. As the bowl develops, the flavors deepen rather than fade, becoming fuller and more satisfying toward the bottom. It is smooth, flavorful, and remarkably composed. The strength is noticeable without overwhelming the experience, and the overall character feels mature and traditional. This is not a flashy tobacco—it is simply deeply satisfying, especially when I want something with more weight than a straight Virginia but without the smokiness of an English mixture. For me, University Flake is an outstanding tobacco and one I consider genuinely special....Read More
Where’s the topping?

Product: Peterson University Flake 50g
All the reviewers rave about this amazing plum/berry/blueberry topping in this blend. It sounded interesting so I bought a tin. The tin note did have a very faint aroma of what I’d describe as blueberry muffin I guess. Smoking it I tasted nothing but Virginia leaf. I admit I don’t have the most sensitive skilled palate to pick up on slight notes and flavors unless I’m smoking an aromatic. I found this tasting like an average Virginia which turned quite ashy and cigaretty even puffing slow maybe due to the burley. I kept trying to tell myself “ there’s a berry topping here if you just try hard and think about it.” Nope. By mid bowl I just taste ashtray....Read More
Love every puff

Light topping of plum and stewed fruit, plays nicely off of the stout/sweet virginia mixture. Its one of those blends you can just get lost in. Gotta stock up!
Not Bad

Decent smoke. The burleys are forward while the Virginias support. The plum topping is very faint but enough to really complement and tie the flavor profile together. Has a dark rye, blueberry muffin thing going on and develops through the bowl. The nic is definitely present, just gotta respect the blend. My tin had about 7 years age on it. Worth trying at least once...Read More
