It's probably the other tobaccos faintly peeking through. It's dark like an earl grey tea bag you left in too long, this is on top of the fire cure. Room note: I asked my wife what she smelled she said, "smells sweet," and like "tea." I realized that was the taste I couldn't quite figure out. Has the foundation of dark fire cure throughout, even with small gentle puffs the deep fire cure rose from from the back of my throat to my nasal cavity. Taste: This is the first tobacco I smoked that tasted like the bouquet of the tin, however it was that (fresh sweet natural tobacco) but VERY deep. Even with a few gentle puffs I could feel my heart race and my consciousness slowly disconnect as my body began to react to this high octane nicotine.

I was amazed how rich and deep the taste I.F. With that I knew not to smoke on an empty stomach and show respect with small easy puffs. This is a very strong tobacco use caution. But credit must be given to Peterson's for making a strong flake with a look to the is a brave thing to do, and I suspect financially very sound.ERIN GO BRAGH!Īfter reading the reviews I took away what I should. Many English Plugs and Ropes are stronger. It does taste strong and it is a strong baccy, but Uni Flake is close and Erinmore Flake has a fair wack to it too (I have no time with older smokers talking about how much better it was 20 yrs ago). Pete (below) is right, when he say's it's not as strong as many think. If you are the importer to The Netherlands and just happen to read this.get a ease.ĮDIT: Since last writing this review, there are now 2 or three suppliers in Amsterdam selling this winner in the pipe world.I guess a distributor read my review after all! I have only one problem with Irish Flake, they do not sell it in Holland! Every other blend they make but not this one.the best one.the most Irish one.the strongest one. It fits Peterson's so well, it redeems them when their pipes take too long to break-in or burn too hot or for not making enough filter pipes and when they do sending them all to Germany. It is strong and sweet, fruity with hints of anise and Erinmore with a perfumey lakeland ripple brushing the pebbled beach. UniFlake is great, Irish Oak is good and popular, Sherlock Holmes I love apart from its inappropriate name, Sunset Breeze is a sweet aro of good repute that doesn't bite two much and I'm looking forward to trying my tin of strong Irish whiskey sitting in the cellar. Apparently Deluxe Mixture is their top seller in the Dublin shop which frankly suggest most Irishmen haven't got a clue about good tobacco! Let me begin by saying this, "How the hell can Peterson's make great pipes and a fantastic tobacco like this - in real Irish tradition - whilst still making so many non-entity aromatics. I amazed I haven't reviewed this one yet. Three stars for the current production, and my ratings reflect that now. The creaminess and fruit are hardly obvious. I faintly detect anise, and am doubtful of its presence.

The taste is reduced to the full threshold. The strength level is now strong, not very strong. The Virginias are further in the background, just below the condiment line. The burleys are not much more than a condiment with similarities matching what was used in the past. Their particular aspects much the same as they were in my original review with the exception of the higher smoky barbecue and spice content. The dark fired Kentucky takes the lead by a fair amount now. Update: 12-30-2022 The blend has been changed. Has a long lingering, pleasant after taste, and rather pungent room note. Leaves a little moisture in the bowl, so you may want to dry it a little first. Burns cool, clean and slow with a very consistent nutty, creamy sweet, fruity, mildly floral, spicy, mildly cigarish flavor. Won't bite or get harsh, but has a few rough edges. I recommend smoking it after you’ve eaten due to the high nicotine content. The strength level is very strong, and the taste is very filling. The flavor is mostly consistent all the way to the end. It’s not as overly complex as I make it seem due to its rugged bold richness and fairly creamy smoothness. There is a light topping that reminds me of anise. They are a step ahead of the condiment mark. The Virginias are floral, earthy, woody, grassy, bready, vegetative, mildly tart and tangy citrus sweet, spice, some tangy dried dark fruit and and a few cigar notes in the third slot. A strong blend with a potent blast of nutty, earthy, woody, sweet and sharp burleys, They are well supported by dark fired Kentucky which offers a rich, hearty dose of smoke, earth, floralness, wood, vegetation, herbs, medium spice, nuts, and mild barbecue.
