Peterson - Elizabethan Mixture 50g
Peterson Elizabethan Mixture
I’ve had the original Murray’s blend, in the early 2001, & I had Dunhill 6 yrs ago, & Peterson version.. the Murray’s version tasted different from what I can remember-Peterson version taste the same as Dunhill version, this Virginia periuqe blend all comes together in harmony & each different tobacco has its own hidden flavors like the sweetness from the Virginia & periuqe gives it a beautiful rounded spice with the rich satisfying full tangy peppery,rich flavorful blend where all the tobaccos come as flavorful,greatness i give it 5 stars-it’s that good-I wish they made it in a flake,since I 95% of the time only smoke flakes & coins-shag cut burns to quick for me to get 20mins.

Sutliff - Cringle Flake 2022 1.5oz
Cringle flake 2022 part 2
I had 1 full bowl of last years flake left & I mixed 50/50 blend with this years 2022 cringle flake. It’s even better all the flavors of both excellent blends in 1 bowl-Does everyone else hate hyperinflation- last year I spent over double for 2 pipes last year-Rowlette Serjacopo & rind wax drip top- this year Radice silk cut & Rattrays natural the castle. At least we can still sometimes get & stock up on our favorite blends.my next blend im trying is perrettes 150th flake soon

Sutliff - Cringle Flake 2022 1.5oz
Cringle flake 2022 part 2
I had a bowl left of last year 2021 & I did a 50/50 mix of last year 2021 & this year 2022. All I can say is I’m in heaven. I get the sweetness from last years & more earthy full bodied smoke I have the best of both worlds-i recommend giving it a try, 50/50 half & half I found more hidden flavors I didn’t expect it’s wonderful-it’s sings best in my Dunhill county group 3 & even better in my rare castello PI half smooth wax dripping half & sea rock bottom Zulu Pi-can’t wait try it in my Radice silk cut & Rattray castle pipes next week.

Sutliff - Cringle Flake 2022 1.5oz
Cringle flake 2022
Wow-they did it agin, very impressed, I had both a tin of 2021 cringle flake 2 tins of the 2022- last years flake is a little sweeter I compared them both. The 2022 cringle flake is not as sweet as last year’s flake. I think this year’s cringle flake has more spices & more complex, more body that the almost 20yr stoved periuqe,that adds more earthy flavors & the smell of the katschupe vinegar, that’s when you knows it’s going to be great. Waiting on my Radice Zulu silk cut & Rattrays the castle-breaking then both in with cringle flake 2022-happy piping/-

Rattray's - Dark Fragrant 50g
Rattray’s Dark Fragrant
D.F. Is a interesting blend of dark stoved Virginias into dark Virginia with a touch of periuqe-I can taste the sweet Virginia taste with a flavor of black tea coming in & out every 5-10 puffs-D.F. Reminds me of a mild-medium in taste of Dunhill Ye Ol signs, not as strong but a lighter version with sweet Virginia taste with the taste of black tea coming threw in waves on/off hitting my palate.

Dan Tobacco - Hamborger Veermaster 250g
H.Veermaster
I haven’t had this blend in 14yrs, & I must say this blend is 5 stars for me,I should have bought 2 bags.next time I will.. To me Veermaster taste like a lighter version of Samuel Gawith-Full Virginia Flake. I can taste the elements of F.V.F but a liter version of it-wich works for me because it’s difficult to buy FVF.& so it feels my FVF kick when I feel like smoking it.

Peter Stokkebye - PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake
Bullseye coin curly cit
Bullseye flake is 5 stars easy for me. It’s interesting, because I never rub out my flakes & coins, I fold & stuff, because the flavors are in the flakes & coins & sometimes if you rub them out, you will lose flavors & burns hotter.. stokkeybe recommends you rub out bullseye flake, to get the maximum best flavor/taste.. so I rubbed them out & wow what a difference in taste.. It tasted sweeter & I tasted other flavors as well.. Am I the only person who, pokes out the center black cavendish & throw it away.. I don’t like it, no taste & hard center tobacco I push out with my finger & throw them away. I’m planning on taking my box of bullseye & putting 3-4ozs of Jamison sout Irish wisky in a spray bottle & spray both sides of the box of coins & letting them set for 2 months, making my own Irish wisky flake tobacco with Jamison Irish wisky,& see how it taste..bullseye curly coin cut is the best of out the stokkeybe luxury flakes-navy flake is last on there list for me, it’s boring-now the new 4th generation stokkeybe evening flake-blows navy flake & other made flakes out of water-evening flake is the best bulk flake, so far in my opinion giving the price & u get a 1.5lb box..

Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation - 1931 Flake 3.5oz
The beautiy that is 1931 flake
I get the smell & taste of your typical grassy hay sweet Virginias & the taste of honey, & a slight taste of clove, & nuttiness from the burly. When I 1st started smoking flakes 20yrs ago, I would rub them out, now smoke flakes they way they are ment to be smoked & enjoyed for maximum full flavor & enjoyment (fold & stuff) rubbing out the flake you lose most of the flavors & buy fold & stuff it smokes cooler & slower for a better smoke. What’s really interesting, I’m smoking now as I type this is, I took one 1931 flake & 1 evening flake & put them in 1/4 strips & folded & stuffed my pipe with both flakes, & it taste is wonderful with all the flavors of the 2 flakes coming in & out & they work well together when taking a flake of 1931 & a flake of evening flake,& folding & stuffing 2 times to fit I’m my 2 inch tall wider than normal Radice rind billard. I just ordered 2 tins of 3.5ozs of stokkeybe 2012 flake & I’m looking forward to smoking it.. & now that stokkeybe has evening flake & I have 3 boxes & it’s wonderful & I don’t have to buy the ok so so kind of muted little flavor flake that is luxury navy flake, wich isn’t luxury to me, wich should be givin the title luxury evening flake insead there’s nothing luxury about navy flake at all. Just my thought, to each there own.

Peter Stokkebye - PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake
Bullseye vapor
Bullseye is one of my favorite stokkeybe offerings I smoke along with twist flake & the new evening flake, wich is a lot better & makes navy flake taste a flat. I buy bullseye by the box along with twist flake & now evening flake. There’s been a few times when I’ve ordered bullseye coin flakes, the batch I have gotten was dark brown, like it’s been aging, & the smell & taste I got was of dark chocolate, figs & stewed fruits. From the periuqe.. I taste sweet smooth hay & grassy notes, but the taste & smell that I got the most flavor is smooth chocolate taste. I believe it was due to the aged boxes I’ve gotten that where a dark brown color & couldn’t see the Virginias or periuqe, the coins where all sold dark chocolate brown. I guess I got lucky. I purchased 3 boxes of evening flake & a box of bullseye, Im going to purchase another box of bullseye & 2 boxes of twist flake. So I’ll have 2 boxes of each flake.. since the new evening flake is available, there’s no reason for me to buy the new ok at best Navy flake..

Peter Stokkebye - PS402 Luxury Twist Flake
Old reliable friend
For me twist flake is 5 stars hands down, one of the best flakes I’ve been smoking twist flake for 16 years & it was my favorite tobacco & flake, I get the sweet smell & taste of caramel,vanilla,& coconut,& that wonder aged taste you get when you smoke it. I know for me it taste exactly how it smells, just delicious, it’s that good. I buy twist flake & bullseye & now I also buy evening flake, wich has more flavor than navy flake.

Peter Stokkebye - PS400 Luxury Navy Flake
Navy flake vapor
Stokkeybe navy is good, & I give it 3 stars, because after trying 4th generation evening flake , there’s no comparison. Evening flake make navy flake taste a little muted. Since I bought 3 boxes of evening flake, I don’t need to smoke navy flake, & I feel no need to buy navy flake.

Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation - Evening Flake
Review number 2
Finally a great flake in boxes.. stokkeybe evening flake, luxury bullseyes & luxury twist flake, are 3 of the best flakes made.. the flakes are compressed & hold there cit & shape for fold & stuff, I don’t really buy, GL. Pease or C & D flake tobaccos, because there to soft & delicate they break in your fingers- but with stokkeybe flakes it’s not a issue- G.L pease & C& D should take lessons from stokkeybe on making real flake tobaccos..

Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation - Evening Flake
stokkeybe evening flake
I got my 1st box today & 2 more boxes & 1 box of bullseye also I just need to order 1more box of bullseye flake 2 boxes of twist flake & I’ll have 2 of each. When I first opened my box of evening flake, I was greeted with the typical grassy,hay smell, & raisins from the periuqe. But then something causght my senses & threw me for a loop. I smelled ceader as well. Granted I smoked it out of my new Radice rind wax drip top billard, thinking it was from my pipe. & also smoked it out of my Serjacopo rowlette rusticated apple pipe, just to make sure, the smell of ceader wasn’t a bare bowl with a bare pipe bowl smelling like ceader.. so I ruled out my 2 new pipes,with the smell of ceader. I smell ceader, &!grassy hay sweetness, with raisins. As I was smoking evening flake in 2.different pipes, I tasted the same flavors. Your typical grassy sweet Virginia hay, rasiney periuqe taste, & I also tasted maple, a light sweet maple taste, as one reviewer said it, evening flake is navy flake on steroids. He’s right on.. it’s more flavorful & robust & savory compared to luxury navy flake. & is 5 stars. The best part is, it comes in boxes- wich I’ll keep ordering,

Sutliff - Crumble Kake Virginia Perique 1.5oz
Sutliff Virginia periuqe
This crumble kake vaper is a great tobacco with sweeteness & spice from the periuqe.. I’m still trying to figure out the main flavors & nuances it has. I’m kind of puzzled & it has me kind of stumped, a guy on YouTube said it best, & I wholeheartedly agree, with his assessment & review on this blend, that this vaper keeps changing flavors every time I smoke it, it never taste consistent with the flavors it has,.. I’m tasting something new every time & have smoked this lovely tobaccos, out of my Serjacopos,Castellos, My Dunhill county & my Radice underwood & my Radice rind pipe- I’m still puzzled by the changing flavors even using several different pipes.

I can say golden slices, never disappoints, & yet we keep reaching for it, a timeless classic-i can taste the sweet grassy citrusy flavors, & I can taste a lightly sweet orange taste, & a small amout of apricot making it know threw out the bowl & a touch of apple, not sure if it’s the retro hail & a small taste of apple while puffing.. i was reading a blog & some 1 said golden slices is excellent for breaking new pipe, I’m actually doing that as I’m typing- I’m breaking in my expensive Serjacopo rowlette pipe smoking golden slices & tomorrow morning I’ll break in my Radice rind billard with a wax drip top..

Savinelli - Doblone d'Oro 100g
Deblonde D’ oro
My friend got me 2 tins of this wonderful blend by Savenilli, & from what I can remember & tell, this tobacco taste almost the same as the original three nuns, I was lucky to have 3 bowls from a 40yr old tin.this blend to me almost the same as the original bells three nuns from yrs ago. Wich is interesting because the new bells three nuns don’t even come close, it’s missing a few key tobacco components, as where Savenilli Dablonde D’ oro, taste almost the same as the original three nuns I had. This is a great pipe tobacco, all the tobaccos come together nicely to make a great all day smoking vapor, in my opinion, the only down side, was that it came on dryer side. I moistened It a tad & jarred It.

Seattle Pipe Club - Plum Pudding Special Reserve 4oz
Plum pudding special reserve
Wow 5 stars easy hands down, plum pudding special reserve, is the best non vapor I have ever smoked, it’s that amazing. I don’t know what to say that hasn’t already been said by other reviewers of plum pudding special reserve. It has sweetness & silky smooth, & it’s so savory it makes my mouth water when I open the tin. It’s earthy & a light Smokey latikia taste, & it’s amazing how all the 5-6 different tobaccos come together to harmonize this wonderful winter, blend. I’ll be smoking this tobacco year around. I was amazed that I got 2 tins of this wonderful special reserve tobacco, this being my 1st plug tobacco, I also got a tin of the bourbon barrel aged tin too. I made my Christmas & birthday list, being that my birthday is December 26th- I got 3 tins of plum pudding, 2 special reserve & 1 bourbon barrel aged, & I also got 4 tins of cringle flake 2021, & 4 tins of stokkeybe 1931, & 5 tins crumble kake Virginia periuqe, & 2.tins of savenilli deblonde oro, 2 tins of orlik golden slice & two 8oz of Peter Heinrich special curly cut & a box of 4th generation evening flake, along with my expensive Serjacopo rowlette wax drip pipe,& a Radice rind billard with wax drip top,& a briar works black sandblasted pipe yellow swirl stem- I can’t complain I got 17 tins for Christmas & my birthday & 3 pipes- 2 Italian hand made pipes, Serjacopo & Radice.

Orlik - Golden Sliced 100g
Orlik golden classic greatness
5 stars easy- this is one of the greatest flake tobaccos, in the world, smoked by everyone. This fine tobacco don’t discriminate, it’s smoked by all kinds of everyday people like you & me,& even some of the best master danish pipe carvers, I bet my Rolex that Tom Eltang danish pipe master smokes this classic wonderful flake- it’s weird 2oz tin normal flakes- but I received my two 3.5ozs tins-& holy moly- I pulled out 4 flakes that were 12inchs long, I’m not kidding, has anyone else experienced this? I’m sure. Very unique flake for 3.5oz tin. I get the smell of apricot, grassy hay Virginia, orange & apple, when I stuck my nose in the tin & what a lovely wonder aroma of grassy hay & apricot,orange,& apple goodness, I lit it up & tasted the suddle, sweet Virginia grassy hay,& I can’t taste the yummy wonderful taste of apricot & citrus, orange zest , tangy apple, ever so slightly picking it up off & on, I mostly get Virginia sweetness & apricot- all & all a excellent 5 star pipe tobacco. I’m buying serval tins to age.. I’ve smoked golden slices off & on for 18years. A classic real true Virginia. I dont get any taste of periuqe that I can detect yet.

Peter Heinrichs - Curly Special 200g
Peter Heinrich curly cut
I give Peter Heinrich’s special curly coin cut 5 stars, it is one of the best vapors I’ve been smoking for 16 yrs. I wish it wasn’t out of stock so much, & I buy it as soon as I see in stock. It taste like sweet honey grassy Virginias, that I can taste & detect, I also get the peppery periuqe, & I also get the taste of cinnamon, in & out & I also taste either nutmeg or molasses.. I’d say for me it’s smooth, & the 3-4 different flavors I get while smoking it, all come together for a great smoke. Curly special cut is in my top 10, the next coin cut I want to try,& have been waiting to is gawith cabbies mixture, it’s hard to find & buy, because of all the tobacco hoarders,I was lucky enough to get 4 tins of Sutliff cringle flake last week, along with a 4oz tin of plum pudding special reserve, to smoke on Christmas with my new $500 Serjacopo rowlette pipe for Christmas & I’ll be smoking my 14 tins my sister bought me for Christmas, I got 2 tins of Peter Heinrich’s 200gm tins 5 tins of Sutliff vapor cake, & 4 tins of 1931 flake & 1 tin of bourbon barrel aged plum pudding & my 2 tins of stonehaven I got for $25.

I have no problems calling out hoarders.they know who they are..

With out having to pay goudging prices for Christmas cheer by greedy selfish tobacco hoarders.

Boston 1776 flake is the best. Next to Christmas cheer. The taste is amazing.& it makes me want more & more every time I smoke it. It kinda reminds me of Christmas cheer, wich I wish I had this year, but no, my Christmas is ruined thanks to all those greedy pipe tobacco hoarders that have to buy the entire tins of Christmas cheer, thanks so much to all you greedy self tobacco hoarders, but I still have my Boston 1776 flake, & all you selfish ungrateful tobacco hoarding people, ain't going to ruin my Christmas this year..

Old dark fired
I hope I finally got the 5 stars I was trying to rate this amazing tobacco. I'm on my second day of smoking it & wow, I can taste some chocolate & coffee notes in the beginning. I also taste some smoky notes & some tangy notes as well. This tobacco is real smooth no bite. It does have some nicotine wich I really enjoy with some coffee. I'll be ordering more soon, along with some bold Kentucky wich I haven't tried yet. This tobacco by macbaren is the best. Other macbaren tobaccos tend to bite. But not old dark fired. It's just simply amazing.
