Peter Stokkebye No. 38 Highland Whiskey is made primarily of bright Virginias and soft black Cavendish to which a small amount of mellow Mexican Burley is added. The finishing touch is a splash of aged Scotch whisky that's light and never overwhelming. There won't he any hangovers with this Highland Whiskey.
Just finished the first bowl and have to say I’m not impressed. It is not a bad tobacco but not what I expected from the name “Highland Whiskey “. There is very little flavor to speak of. I’m reminded of Casey Jones Beyond Brave because of a slight hint of fruity raisin. It burns hot so it really has to be sipped or it will steam up and lose any flavor at all. No bite but no flavor. Won’t be buying anymore after this is finished but it’s not so bad that I won’t eventually smoke it all. Stokkebye has disappointed me in the past I was hoping for something better with this one.

We ordered a small amount to sample. We liked it so much, we are going to order 16 ounces to cellar. It rminds me of the pipe tobacco my grandfather smoked years ago. Really, a nice trip down memory lane!

A unique flavored adventure!

A full bodied flavor and delightful smoke. This blend has a more distinctive note that sets it apart from other common tobaccos. Bought on sale and could not be more pleased with the uniqueness of this blend.

Excellent, smooth, actually flavorful, and sweet.

It’s very good. The whiskey flavor tastes, smells, and feels natural as opposed to artificial. It is an aromatic that actually has flavor, and nice sweet whiskey flavor, burns a little hot but without a hint of bite. Also mine was on the medium moist side. A nice non-sicky, silky smooth smoke. One of the best parts when I smoke this, is actually sweetens the top of my mouthpiece. Can taste the sweetness on the whole tongue and the after flavor sweet lingers at the back of the tongue. I’d say this is a perfect aromatic.
Another way I can describe this, remember your first black and mild cigarillo? If you enjoyed those as much as I, it’s like one of those, but with none of the drawbacks of bite or bitter, and the slightest essence of the flavor that the champagne flavored one gives you, just nice whiskey.

Good sweet flavor, yet still mellow and smooth. The whiskey notes could be a bit stronger and the tobacco is rather moist, but that’s easy enough to change. Overall a great deal!

Surprised

I was trying a couple different Whiskey blends so I'll try this and I was pleasantly surprised not to "Alcohol". I feel it the best balance of Whiskey and tobacco out there.

First time I've tried this one. Very smooth. Wife loves it. There are some I have bought that she makes a face at when I light up. She noticed this one right away and definitely approves. Will buy again.

I have spent along time to find a whiskey blend that taste good, no bite and smokes well. I have found it in this blend. It is a permanent fixture in my rotation. Highly recommend it.

I bought an oz. of it i like it good aroma good taste mild and an all around good smoke. I will buy some more of this.
JE of Enid, OK
For this scotch lover who cut his teeth on aromatics and now is a huge Virginia fan, this is a very nice tobacco. This is not your typical aromatic in that the topping isn't overdone and you can actually taste the tobaccos--in this case, the Virginias really come through. The sweetness tastes like it's coming first from the whisky and second from the Virginias. Not a complex smoke by any means, but well balanced and highly enjoyable with the quality that you'd expect from Stokkebye.

I set down with this a few times, years ago, and decided to revisit it in my most recent order. Time and memory haven't dulled this in the slightest. I recalled it as a mild and smooth, with a rich scent...to me, the flavor of whiskey comes across sweet but not rich, like a nice Glenmorangie neat. The taste of the tobacco is slight at first, and that may turn some off, but it gradually builds, letting the bold burley flavor step forward and the whiskey take a backseat. I let it breathe for about 4-5 minutes before packing and lighting, and it burned mostly cool and smooth with just two sizzling spots near the bottom. The only caveat I can offer is this: While it allows some gulps and puffs(if you will), the deeper in you are, the more you want to sip and beware the sizzle. I believe 80% of all aro tongue burn comes from getting too comfortable with the tobacco. Not a dig at anyone either, but I notice my 'clencher' buddies get burnt more often than the 'holders'... I believe that is due to an unconscious extra sip or two, and the bottom half of this lovely tobacco will not allow it. If I were to call it a 1-10, 10 as best, I give the PS 38 a rating of 9, great whiskey flavor, smooth and light, a nice after meal kind of smoke or a smoke while chatting with friends.
