| Cairo |
Cairo is a wonderfully complex mixture of red, orange and bright
Virginia tobaccos, exotic oriental leaf, and just a whisper of Perique.
The flavor is naturally sweet, slightly nutty, delicately spicy and
rich. Subtle citrus-like notes harmoniously support the more robust
flavors of the darker Virginias. Cairo is a medium bodied but very
satisfying tobacco with a delicate aroma that will be enjoyed by Virginia
lovers and the connoisseur of oriental mixtures alike.

| Haddo's Delight |
Haddo's Delight is a stout blend of several Virginia tobaccos with a
generous measure of long-cut Perique. Unflavored Green River black
Cavendish and a little air-cured white burley ribbon provide
fullness, body, and a bit of extra strength. Finally, an exclusive process
darkens and marries the mixture. The flavor is full on the palate, earthy,
slightly sweet and intriguingly piquant, with overtones of figs and
raisins. A wonderful blend for the Perique lover.

| Samarra |
Samarra is a rich and complex mixture, without being heavy. Matured red
Virginia provides the basic structure and a delicate sweetness. A generous
portion of Cyprian Latakia is added for its smoky richness, and exotic,
fragrant oriental leaf provides fullness to the flavor. Finally, just a
hint of lemon Virginia adds bit of brightness to the smoke, and a touch of
Perique adds its own unique piquancy.

robust foundation for this sophisticated blend. Rich, red Virginia
tobaccos are added for their subtle sweetness and complexity, while the
unique spice of Perique provides added dimension. A delicate kiss of
brandy polishes the blend to a perfect finish. Barbary Coast is
delightfully satisfying, with hints of black walnut, dark chocolate, and
dried fruits. The perfect "all-day" smoke!
|
| Caravan |
Caravan is A lovely spice up front mingles with delightfully exotic
Oriental flavors. The smoke:leathery flavors of Cyprian Latakia weave
their way through the smoke assertively, but never in an overbearing
manner. A zesty, delicate sweetness punctuates the statements made by
the rest of the tobaccos. The finish is lingering, but won't overstay its
welcome.
|
| Odyssey |
Odyssey is huge — the biggest of the Pease blends. It's loaded with
Latakia and harmonized by exotic Orientals. Wonderful red and jet-black
stoved Virginias provide a perfect counterpoint.
|
| Cumberland |
Robust and possessing a subdued sweetness, Cumberland is a delightfully
orchestrated suite of American tobaccos. Featuring a rare and exquisite
mahogany Kentucky aged in bales for 20 years. Red and matured Virginias
establish a theme; the Kentucky and a pianissimo of Perique create the
variations. Pure natural tobacco flavors are harmonized by delicate
arpeggios and underscored by deep resonant tones. The coda is lovely and
lingering — a perfect finish to a rich performance. Best savored slowly. |
| Abingdon |
Abingdon is the fullest
Balkan style blend in the range. It is rich and robust, powerful and
forthright, yet still possessing subtlety and finesse. Dark flavors of
wood and leather mingle with delicate undercurrents of sweetness, and deep
earthy notes, while the oriental tobaccos provide hints of their verdant,
sometimes herbaceous character. A big Balkan blend, reminding us once more
of what these blends used to be.

of red and lemon Virginias, Cyprian Latakia, exotic oriental tobaccos, and
a perfect measure of Louisiana Perique for a lively, piquant finish. The
smoke is creamy and lingering, engaging the palate with a mouth-filling
array of wonderful flavors. Reminiscent of raisins and stewed figs,
fireplaces in the fall, walks in the forest... Perhaps the most complex in
the collection. Perfect for evenings.

| Charing
Cross |
Charing Cross is a traditional Balkan
style blend of fine Virginia leaf, richly seasoned with smoky Cyprian
Latakia, and spiced with the exquisite and exotic tobaccos of the orient.
This is one for Latakia lovers. Hints of roasted cocoa beans, orange zest,
green pepper and campfires. Charing Cross is fuller than Blackpoint, and a
little less sweet.
|
| Kensington |
Kensington is a Balkan style
blend with restraint. Bright and red Virginias are combined with richly
flavoured leaf from the orient and Cyprian Latakia in perfect measure for
a wonderfully balanced smoke. Slightly sweeter than Charing Cross, and not
quite as full due to a more delicate hand with the Latakia. Spicy, with an
occasional suggestion of orange blossom. Complex, but never ponderous. A
slightly lighter variant of a classic style.
|
| Piccadilly |
Piccadilly is a provocative
blend of several Virginia tobaccos, delicately spiced with Latakia, and
finished with Louisiana Perique. The alluring flavour is revealed in
layers throughout the smoke. It's lighter and sweeter than the others, but
still rich, with hints of 9cinnamon and citrus. The mildest of the blends
in this collection, so far, Piccadilly is the perfect "English
Breakfast Mixture."

Named for the famed winding,
twisting street in San Francisco, Lombard starts with a base of red
and bright Virginias. It is then enhanced with American
“condimental” leaf, including an angel's share of Perique. The
twist in this Lombard? A delicate breath of Cyprus Latakia is added
for a whisper of smokiness and a slightly deeper flavor. A gentle
introduction to Latakia for the Virginia smoker, or just a delightful
change of pace. |

oriental tobaccos is generously blended with bright and red Virginia leaf.

smokiness, resulting in a tobacco that can best be described as a

Bohemian spirit and a sense of adventure. |
