Tashkent Pipe Tobacco

[john parker]

Just had the pleasure of sampling a bowl of Tashkent, a Turkish (Izmir) and Latakia blend by Peretti of Boston. And it was delicious! My first oriental! Smooth, creamy, subtle sweetness with slight spiciness like ginger and cinnamon in curry. Rich tasting; not vague. The Latakia (which I am just learning about) seemed to be there in the woodiness but not bitey or overpowering. Cool smoke! Looking forward to my next bowl! Will also try Peretti's Oriental #40 to see what it is like.

Did find the tobacco review section, but have no idea how to make an entry there. Perhaps some kind soul could guide me in doing that.

Thanks!

Nice review, to add it to our review section do the following:
Click on Reviews
Then in the little blue bar right below it should offer to Upload Products
Click on that, then select the Brown Leaf section
And the rest is fairly self explanatory.

Thanks, Professor! I sort of got it loaded!
