Excellent English
October 05, 2017
Product: Peter Stokkebye PS52 Proper English Bulk
very good English blends, mild to medium, you can get the sweetness of the virginias, and sweet smokiness of the latakia, and spice of the oriental. The flavors all work well together in this blend. excellent everyday smoke
Product: Peter Stokkebye PS52 Proper English Bulk
This blend delivers what its name promises. Rich flavor, but perfectly balanced. No bite, and something unique and subtle that can't be explained. English done splendidly.

Made Me Fall In Love With English Blends Again
June 26, 2019
Product: Peter Stokkebye PS52 Proper English Bulk
For a long while English blends kind of fell out of favor for me. Once in a while I'd have some Comoy's Cask 1 or something similar, but I'd soon get homesick for my beloved VaPer blends. However, on a whim, I ordered some of this and it has renewed ... Read More
my love of English blends. The quality is in a league of its own and I can taste the complexities of the VAs and Orientals even over the Latakia. I'm finding myself more and more drawn to this blend, and less and less homesick for my VaPers. Read Less

Close to the old Dunhill's Nightcap

e flavor, very slight crayon. Slight Virginia grass. A little richer than English Luxury, not as silky. A little less Latakia flavor, and a little more mild roundedness (Prefer English Luxury a bit more for more pronounced flavor). Good, but not a favorite for intensity. Seemed to detect a of bitterness once or twice. It's a pretty good smooth, Latakia mild, cool smoking, mild yet solid flavored English.
Easy on the tongue, behaves nicely, with few to no relights, leaving no moisture or dottle. Definitely prefer PS English Luxury or Presbytarian Match slightly more, but it is good. ◄6/10✠Skulls► Read Less

the English blends. I found this very smooth and aromatic. The pack, light, and burn were about as easy as it gets with not even a single relight being required. The flavor starts out as typical English but settles into a nice, smooth, campfire smokiness, that has a fair amount of sweet. Cool weather and coffee makes this a great way to start the day.

Smoth mixture. The ratio is perfect for a mild latikia smoke any time of the day. Great with a cup of tea. I would relate it to Dunhills early morning in its intensity.
Latakia... tasty
May 28, 2018
Product: Peter Stokkebye PS52 Proper English Bulk
I am somebody that can and has smoke straight Latakia. I love it. Proper English is a blend that gives me that Latakia fix and something else. There are not many blends that do that for me. The mixture of Virginias, Orientals, and Latakia combine ... Read More
to make a balanced English blend. The flavors taste wonderful. This is a medium English blend similar to Dunhill 965 or Elizabethan in strength. While many find English Blends difficult to tolerate, if you like them, it has a nice room note. For those who don’t care for the smells of good tobacco, this will continue to be offensive. Read Less

August 02, 2020
Product: Peter Stokkebye PS52 Proper English Bulk
My quest for the summer was to diversify my tobacco rotation. For most of the last 20 years or so my rotation was fairly one note and totally burley. While I'm not completely unfamiliar with English blends, the English wing of my rotation was witho... Read More
ut exception reliable American English blends like Epiphany and Billy Budd. Even my EMP clone of choice, C&D Good Morning had been slightly burleyfied. Definitely nothing wrong with any of these blends but what I lacked was a. traditional, no kidding English blend. Where better to begin my search than Proper English? It's unmistakably English but wonderfully tasty with great smoking manners and a perfect Latakia content (noticeable but not a Lat bomb.) The orientals and Virginia work well together giving it the creamy texture and the quintessential leathery spice taste and smell. Call me crazy, but I actually got a bit of a Squadron Leader vibe from this one. If you're looking for an all day English that delivers quality way beyond its price point, look no further. Read Less

965 on a Budget
December 15, 2019

Product: Peter Stokkebye PS52 Proper English Bulk
I was recommended this blend by some veteran pipe smokers. There are many more expensive options out there, but this is the best bang for the buck as a full-English you will find. The quality is pretty good, with few twigy bits. Smokes great and has ... Read More

Turkish Forward, Very “Stokkebye”
November 11, 2021
Product: Peter Stokkebye PS52 Proper English Bulk
This is very Stokkebye. It just has that Stokkebye je ne sais quoi. The Virginias are very fine and subtly sweet; the latakia is uncommonly mellow, taking a place way back there in the nosebleed seats; while the incense-like, almost floral orientals ... Read More
steal the show. At the moment I find that I prefer an English with burley — such as Sutliff’s English #1 or their BS 759 Match, or even H&H’s Blackhouse if I’m in the mood for some cavendish — but that preference does not diminish the quality of what Stokkebye has here. It’s as if orientals serve as the base while latakia and Virginia play a much smaller, merely supportive role as condiments, or even garnishes. So if I were in the mood for a bowl of something mostly Turkish, this is what I would probably reach for. For now I’ll stick to big burley balkans, and I’ll cellar this one for a year or so to see how it does with some more time. Read Less
