Smells can be deceiving
May 29, 2018
Product: Peter Stokkebye PS306 English Oriental Supreme Bulk
I ordered this with about five other tobaccos. I had recently discovered English blends were my true love, and I wanted to experience new blends. This mixture stunk up the box and everything in it. I was not to be deterred. I separated the bags, and ... Read More
I went with this one second. The tin/bag note was awful, which has come to be a promising sign where English blends are concerned. I packed a bowl and lit up. The charring light was heavenly. It only continued to get better. This is a fine blend. Although I am not a burley fan, it really does a good job of balancing out the virginia well. There is no tongue bite, and the black cav adds a touch of sweetness, without overdoing it. The latakia is notable, but not over powerful. All things considered, this is a fine medium strength English Blend. Read Less
Fantastic.
November 11, 2017
Product: Peter Stokkebye PS306 English Oriental Supreme Bulk
This tobacco exudes a quality of simplicity and comfort. It is sweet for the first quarter, notably sweet, but not overwhelmingly, as in an aromatic. This sweetness then transforms slowly into a calm, mellow smokiness that rises in intensity as the b... Read More
owl nears the bottom. It is ultimately satisfying, though lacks one quality that I find in some blends, a sweet and sour component. This blend is called english oriental supreme, though by the description and the components listed, contains no orientals whatsoever. An offputting title for such a blend.
I had expected this sweet and sour flavor, which I quite like, though I do not find myself missing it in any way when stoking this fine tobacco. It is a luxurious and again satisfying blend that I would not pause to recommend to anyone looking for an enjoyable smoke.
I do warn that one might temper their oriental expectations, if they are expecting the tangy note that blends containing orientals often offer. Once you have accepted that fact, this tobacco is excellent. Will buy more and perhaps update with an aged review. Read Less
My first English
March 12, 2018
Product: Peter Stokkebye PS306 English Oriental Supreme Bulk
I’ve started pipe smoking daily as a cheaper alternative to cigars, which I love. I started with aromatics, as most do, but found them lacking. Enter this blend. It smelled extremely smoky/rich from the bag. Once lit, however, the first thing I notic... Read More
ed was how incredibly smoothe it was. It burns much cooler than aromatics, has a much more complex flavor, and is much easier to manage. If there is an aromatic smoker looking at this as their first English, I highly recommend! Read Less

For all-day and 'Good morning' smoke
February 02, 2018
Product: Peter Stokkebye PS306 English Oriental Supreme Bulk
English Oriental Supreme is a wonderful 'Good morning' tobacco for latakia-lover pıpe smokers; and an all day tobacco for virginia-lover pipe smokers. It does not contains much latakia, but it's a tasteful smoke. Highly recomended!
Product: Peter Stokkebye PS306 English Oriental Supreme Bulk
Great flavor to keep you interested through the whole bowl. So smooth you wish you had time for a 2nd. I've tried many English blends, this one strikes the perfect balance for me. Cheers!

A Mild Version of EMP with Burley
June 16, 2020
Product: Peter Stokkebye PS306 English Oriental Supreme Bulk
Think a VA/BUR... a roasted grain nuance with a bready sweetness. Supplement that with a touch of black cav for smooth sweetness, a touch of orientals for a slight woody and floral nuance and a whisper of latakia for the slightest of cedar smokiness.... Read More
Really a mild and smooth mixture that's very well balanced. As a matter of fact, it reminds me of Early Morning Pipe - though milder, smoother, better mouth feel and less nicotine (also cheaper). Read Less
A Bridge to the Heavier Side
October 10, 2018
Product: Peter Stokkebye PS306 English Oriental Supreme Bulk
This blend served as the bridge to heavier/fuller mixtures, at least for me. It starts off sweet, probably too sweet for more "veteran" English blend smokers unless you're specifically looking for that. The sweetness starts to fade after ... Read More
a while, and the smokiness of the Latakia makes more of a presence. The burley helps provide body, and it also seems to add a hint of sourness (in a good way) that comes and goes.
I will admit -- the name confuses me. "English Oriental Supreme" Am I the only one expecting Oriental/Turkish to be present here? But according to Stokkebye's description, it's not there.
Try this if you think you might like a sweeter, less complex "Balkan Supreme." I could also see this being a breakfast mixture for smokers that enjoy Balkan blends all day long. Read Less

the nuttiness from the burley, occasionally you have a touch of spiciness, from the orientals? I'm not very sure, but that little fragrant mustiness is certainly there. The Latakia is a player, but not dominant! I enjoyed this one immensely! Get yourself a good sized bowl and let the baccy shines through if you like English, I highly recommend this to you! Read Less

This was my first step into the world of English blends. It smells wonderdul, almost like beef jerky but in a good way. Mellow and just the right blend of smokey and spicy.

re. So uncommon in fact that I have settled on three that do it for me every time: Kramer's Father Dempsey, Lane's Medal of Valor, and this one, PS English Oriental Supreme. We've all read descriptions and thought “they all have the same components, why do they taste so different from each other?”. That's the beauty of pipe tobacco. Slight variations in procured leaf, the aging process, (sometimes) casings or toppings, blend percentages, etc. all effect the outcome, but what English Oriental Supreme taught me was that regardless of the Syrian vs. Cyprian Latakia debate, my palate enjoys Cyprian. With Syrian Latakia being ever harder to get I'm fine with this revelation, lol. To me Cyprian starts out more mellow than Syrian could ever get with age. It has a bite-free coolness that harmonizes with orientals to become transcendent. Here's the real surprise though, this doesn't have any Orientals apart from the Latakia. None. The Latakia is carrying the show. And technically Latakia is an Oriental, but there's no Basma, Izmir, Yenidje, etc. is what I mean. The other two blends I mention both claim Latakia and Orientals separately. I don't remember if I bought this or it was shared, but I remember my first smoke of it being with friends...timeless. It was a reset button for my brain. I'd been smoking Lat-blends for 20 years or more, but English Oriental Supreme was an awakening; a renaissance. It soon became an every-day-carry of mine that I'll likely never put away. Enjoy. Read Less

Mild candles with a little spice nip. Yeah, candles and some spice blended to milder notes.
2nd Bowl -
Little campfire and small candle with spice hit in nose. Mild candles with some silkiness or kinda like milk just sitting on the tongue without swallowing. Some mild Virginia hay flavors on 1st light and out. Mild wood and smoke, with a slightness of sour. Very rounded with a good full mouth feel, but mild overall in every department. There is lots here coming from each of the tobaccos in the blend, but it is fairly subtle across the board. Comes alive a bit more mid bowl down. I would take English Luxury over it nearly every time, but I will keep a couple ounces on hand for comparisons. Burns cool at a decent pace. A couple helping lights, leaves little moisture. ◄6.2/10✠Skulls► Read Less

o improve it. After all, "everyone knows" Latiakas don't age well, and cavendish and burleys don't change much over time. However, I just popped open one of those jars, and I was amazed. It's still very much the same blend with a very similar flavor profile, but it has melded and blended together to smoke far above its price class. I wouldn't have described it as "rough around the edges" to begin with, until I tried it with a bit of polish.
Try some out, and if you like it fresh, grab a bunch and forget about it for a while. You'll be glad you did. Read Less

Phenomenal blends. While very flavorful and rich it's actually very smooth and not strong. It's tangy, tart, sweet and smoky all at once. Going to buy a pound or two.

toasty, sweet, spicy, smoky, rich. It burns very coolly, gurgles but little, and leaves no moisture in the bowl. Once lit, it stays lit, and it burns down to fine ash. Of the utmost importance, it gives absolutely no tongue-bite. It satisfies while still remaining somewhat mild of body and nicotine. For me, Peter Stokkebye’s offerings are usually either hit or miss, and this one is a BIG hit. His Balkans and Englishes have all been big winners IMO, and English Oriental Supreme is a jewel in the Balkan crown. Absolutely top shelf, head of the class, cream of the crop, the 1%, the star of the show, the angel on the Christmas tree. EOS is everything a great English or Balkan should be (and yes, again, I locate it firmly within the Balkan sub-genre of the English camp because the orientals are emphasized far and away over the latakia; latakia is present, but serves only as a plinth to elevate the orientals).

he tobacconist, and on the account that this was the only bulk English they had in stock. I smoked through that ounce and found an immediate connection with this beautiful blend. Spicy, smoky, and at times nuttiness and hay dance on the palate and shine upon the retrohale. It has kept me contemplating the flavors throughout the smoke each time I have sat down to a bowl. This blend has forever made me a fan of the English style, and I picture myself enjoying this blend for years to come. Smokes cool with little effort and ready to go right out of the bag. English Oriental Supreme did not disappoint this newbie on any level. I suggest grabbing an ounce or several with your next order. Happy piping all! Read Less

t the halfway point in the bowl - the orientals provide interest, but really just enhance the bright, lemony flavors of this blend And give a slight incense aroma - really enjoyable if you want a lighter smoke but want to stay in the English family of flavors and don’t want to go to a vaper - the ribbon cut is kinda wet and clumps together a bit, so just a little spread on a tray to air it and separate it a bit works for me. I think it’s better than the Proper English and not quite as rich as the Englis Luxury of the Stokkeby English blends - very good smoke! Read Less
