Tastes like a damn cigarette
December 16, 2017
Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 3.5oz
It burns well and lights well, but so do cigs. Not into this blend at all. Might as well have smoked a camel. It's all subjective, of course, so cheers to those who enjoy it.
Satisfied.

Very well done. Im happy I can across a tobacco this well done to break my habit of only trying Balkan and typical Latakia blends.
Another Cigarette-Like Blend
April 29, 2018
Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 1.75oz
If you like Royal Yacht, you will like this and vice-versa. I do not like either. To me both blends taste like concentrated cigarette smoke with a topping of rotting green tomato. ----- I hate the stuff, but gave it a 3 as I wanted my review to be ... Read More
neutral. Just because I do not like this, does not mean it is not a quality product. Read Less
부드러운페릭의맛
November 14, 2020
Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 3.5oz
라타키아빠진 모든연초의짬뽕버젼이라본다 헌데 정말 블렌딩잘했다고 본다 비빔밥에 어느하나 많이들어가면 맛의조합이 틀어지듯히 이연초는 조합하나는끝내준다 페릭이 이리 부드럽게 느껴지는건 드물다 다크파이어드켄터키가 주류인듯하다 하지만 여러조합이 진득한맛과향을 즐기게도와준다 이연초는데일리로 추천한다 절대 가볍지않고 진득하면서도 즐겁게도와준다
although it can be smoked from time to time
August 26, 2020
Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 1.75oz
Mac Baren's products are not my preference, but because I am a fan of tobacco blends from the Virginia family, I decided to try this tobacco. Indeed, as declared by the manufacturer, the tobacco has no foreign tastes, burns evenly in the tube and is ... Read More
smoked to the bottom dry and completely. As it seemed, it is strong, although it is declared 3 out of 5. In principle, tobacco is not bad, but it will not become permanent for me, although it can be smoked from time to time. Read Less

Extra natural spicy smoke for all day. I very much enjoyed even if basically I am a Latakia fan!
Sour and Peculiar
November 17, 2019
Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 1.75oz
I’m a fan of Peterson Irish Cask and I heard this was similar. Tin note is sour orientals and earthy dark fired Kentucky. It smokes fine, and the pepperiness of the Perique is evident and enjoyable. It’s not a go-to blend for me, but it’s fine.
Another Tasty HH Blend!
August 15, 2018
Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 1.75oz
When I first started smoking a pipe about a year and a half ago, I bought so many blends I nearly forgot about this one. I popped the lid on a jar of this I'd cellared for about a year and I was delightfully surprised by how good it was. Unlike it's ... Read More
name, it's not a Perique powerhouse, but rather a very nice, typical VA-Per in flavor and behavior. It's got that bready and dark fruit tin note than any good VA-Per usually has, and the taste is equally pleasant. I'd recommend it to anyone who's enjoyed any of the HH blends, and to VA-Per fans who want to explore new territory. Also worth noting is the lack of the usual "Mac Bite" that Mac Baren is infamous for. Finally, its strength, which is mild to medium, both in flavor and nicotine content. Another solid smoke from Mac Baren, if not a bit different than their usual fare. Read Less
Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 1.75oz
I love the HH series but this one is just different. It's not bad so don't get me wrong. It's something that you will have to try out yourself. I need to smoke more in different pipes I guess to figure out if it's for me or not.
Ah, the taste.

Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 1.75oz
I note that some people refer to this blend as a VA/Per. To me, it's more kitchen sink. Most of Mac B's Virginias bite me like a mad dog, this doe's not and the taste is wonderful.
Decent Stuff.

Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 1.75oz
I enjoy this one for what it is but I can think of a dozen other blends I would smoke before I reach for this one. It' a great middle of the road smoke and I enjoy it when I'm mowing the lawn or doing other outside chores around the house. It definit... Read More
ely ain't a thinker so you can just light up and go about your business and for that it is great. Once my tin runs out I doubt I will restock it. If you are looking for something that isn't too complex than this might be right for you. Just a basic ribbon cut VaPer. Read Less
Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 16oz
I really like this blend. It does need to be thoroughly dried prior to smoking. The perique is detectable all the way through but never overpowering. As the bowl progresses I taste different tobaccos taking turns in the forefront with the perique enh... Read More
ancing the whole experience. I really enjoy the spicy orientals and the dark fired kentucky in this blend. I smoke this a lot and it's never exactly the same twice in a row but it's always great! Burns really well too and really doesn't need to be relit much at all if you are timely and skilled with a tamper. It may become a 5 star blend for me in the future. Read Less
Great, great stuff

Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 1.75oz
Wonderful way to delve into perique. It only gets better and more interesting with each new bowl.
I'm thankful to Mac Baren for all of their HH blends.
Strong Va/Per with generic Perique.
December 26, 2016
Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 3.5oz
A tasteful and a quite strong mixture for a Mac Baren. If you are looking for a deep blend with very complex tastes, there it is. It is not an easy mixture. The balanced mix of all added tobaccos causes a different experience in each draught. Each ty... Read More
pe of tobacco shows up and faints away every once in a while, making it a really interesting smoke throughout the bowl. And each bowl is somehow a new adventure. It is all about natural tobacco aromas. There is no detectable sweetness in this blend, neither from Virginia and Burley, nor from Cavendish or Perique. And I am glad there is no artificial sweetening and flavouring. All these points make this blend unique and therefore highly recommendable to explore. Give it a try. I am glad I did, although it has not become a favourite of mine.
I dare to say that in my taste and opinion the Perique in this mixture is not original St-James-Parish/Louisiana Perique. I think it is a GENERIC Perique. Unfortunately it is a taboo, but everybody knows, that more Perique is used in the tobacco industry than produced in St-James-Parish. Furthermore, Mac Baren carefully mentions nowhere, that there is genuine Louisiana Perique in this mixture. If there was, they would most certainly mention it explicitly. As long as I am not misled, I don’t mind. Personally I am not fond of the combination of Perique with Kentucky and Orientals. I prefer Perique in combination with Virginia exclusively. Read Less
Lots of Perique
August 13, 2016
Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 1.75oz
To me this blend tastes a lot like a medium to fill bodied cigar, which I like. It burns well, and is easy to pack, as are most Mac Baren tobaccos.

The best perique blend I have smoked to date.Go ahead and complain about it's lack of this ,or that.
Over priced for the taste
December 04, 2015
Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 1.75oz
I ordered this tin because I wanted to see how much perique taste it had. For over 10 dollars a ounce I can get a better blend -seems with Mac Baren all their tobacco is highly priced. But Hey you get to keep the tin.
Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 3.5oz
I can not deney it's quality, sealed fresh. It burns without a hitch (even when the pipe is unclean). I find the taste to be a bit more hyped then what it really is. It was decent, as you could get a draw in well suscitation but not great. Because of... Read More
the tins size, it dries out rather quickly. It is probably better if you remove the cake out and put it back in without the paper. Still the gain for lifespan is only minimal. I've found better in bulk for a fraction! The novelty of this product is worth merit. Read Less
Pleasant surprise
March 25, 2015
Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 1.75oz
I have been meaning to smoke a substantial amount of this blend (at least an entire tin), since I first tried a sample form a bulk bag months ago. Now that I have spent some time with this one, I can say that I'm still finding new nuances with each b... Read More
owl. This blend is complex, and will keep your attention regardless of the size chamber you are loading. I would consider this a bit higher in strength than I initially found it to be. Overall, I can enjoy this blend all day long and I intend to lay down no small amount for future enjoyment. Read Less

Perique blend at its best.

Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 3.5oz
My favorite perique blend. Smokes clean to the very end. The flavour and spice is just right.
Best Perique Blend

Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 3.5oz
This is the best perique blend so far. No over powering with perique but just enough to give it that nicotine kick.
Smooth and Easy

Product: Mac Baren HH Acadian Perique 3.5oz
