GL Pease Union Square

Great

Description made me think of a sweet Virginia, maybe that’s what I was looking for. Liked the broken flake, one of my favorite along with flake and coin. Shocked at first smoke as it wasn’t overly sweet if at all but strangely bitter to my taste. After 3-4 more encounters I began noticing it for what it was rather than what I expected. Very pleasant smoke and while taking it for itself I’ve discovered an understated flavor and deliciousness all its own and now find myself reaching for some often! Pays to take your time and be open minded with individual tobaccos rather than make quick judgments.

Absolutely love this blend. It was a great change from my usually dark tobaccos. It brings bright flavorful of Virginia that is a great way to enjoy a lighter overall flavor. It's staying In stock with me. It's like my favorite va/per with a nice change from the usual spice.

None better

it was Great !! Thanks! Jose

This is my go-to sweet Virginia for adding to my blends. I never can smoke a tobacco straight from the tin/bag/pouch because they are all lacking some element. When making my own blends I have to have some Virginia to sweeten them, and I used to use Mac Baren's back in the late 70s, but it has changed. GL Pease Union Square is the closest I have found to replace the old Mac Baren Virginia No 1. My other favorites to add to my blends are Lane 1Q (for its aromatic quality), GL Pease Quiet Nights, Captain Black Dark or Lane BCA (to cut sharpness), Mac Baren Plum Cake and/or Dark Twist, Mac Baren Original Choice (somewhat aromatic), Comoy's Cask No 7, Peter Stokkebye Proper English, Presbyterian mixture, John Cotton's No 1, and any number of Rattray's mixtures, especially Professional Mixture.

Excellent

Best of GL Pease!

Wonderful Virginia blend. To step it up to perfect just add a small amount of Turkish Ribbon. At this point perfection has been achieved.

This is probably the best example of a straight Virginia that I have smoked. Citrus notes drive the bus with just a sprinkle of hay in the background for body. I gave this 4 stars only because it's very young straight out of the tin and needs some cellaring time, but other than that it would've been a 5

Superb example of Virginia Flake, one of my favorite.

Excellent tobacco but needs aging before smoking. Right out of the can it tastes like cigarettes. Let it sit a couple of weeks/months and it mellows, sweetens and darkens. Burns down to white ash.

Not very impressive out of the tin. I left it in a glass jar for about a month and what a difference. I’m normally a Balkan smoker but this is a fine tasting tobacco. I just ordered 8 ounces and will definitely keep it in my rotation.

Golden Virginia leaf combined with red Virginia, flue-cured then pressed together, cut into a slow smoking flake. This is a great choice for someone seeking a tasty yet very mild, no bite tobacco.

Very nice! Will purchase again.

Very nice! I like this one enough to get more!

delicious
