Sadly missed but not forgotten.
Was a good substitute for Camel straights, often cut with a bit of Izmir. Sad it was discontinued, I for one miss it and am blending my own substitutes.

My go-to all-day regular smoke.
Light and savory. A real leaf without so much sauce. I enjoy it as is, or with a light Virginia. A great every day and all day smoke. One of my favorites.

Try it!
This tobacco seems to be commonly used for RYO cigarettes. Well, I don't smoke cigarettes but I can see why this tobacco does well the that form. I smoked this in a pipe.......and It's amazing. It smokes cool and has a decent nicotine kick. Plus, a mild not overwhelming sweetness to the taste. I'm adding this to my rotation as an all day smoke. I doubt It will beat my C&D burley blends but what could If I'm being honest. The moral of the story is that If you're a pipe smoker that's hesitant about trying this blend due to the cigarette comments, Don't be! It's Awesome!

Way better than camels...
This tobacco is the star of the show in 2 of my luxury cigarette blends, and is super on its own. I can't compare it to camels like many other reviewers. This is like a gourmet camel, the flavor of the Samsoun really comes through. I suppose you could make it taste more like a camel really easily if you wanted to. (but why?!) Just throw in a bit of izmir - some of the camel blends use this for part of the flavor, (in addition to the samsoun found in ps84) and maybe mix 15-20% of a light/light-ish air-cured burley - adjust this to get the strength you're used to. (for this component I get good results using cheap stuff like OHM natural) The camel blends made outside the US supposedly contain more burley.

Perfectly smooth for RYO
Perfect for RYO machine. Doesn’t stick or clump when injected into tubes. Smoke is smooth, comparable to Camel’s Turkish but smoother and cleaner imo. I prefer the Norwegian and the Amsterdam(when it was available) as far as flavor and aroma but they are more cumbersome for the ryo machine. Would recommend this Turkish for blending or for just a great smooth easy all day smoke. My go to for now.

Great when you want to replicate a Camel non filtered cigarette, which I gave up many years ago. Close as I've experienced.

Very nice. I use it as cigarette tobacco. I’ll try something new soon as I need to buy menthol tobacco for a friend. I do wish you’d include a moisture packette with 1 pound bulk buys

If you want a normal Cigarette taste read this
I like it. I always smoked Kamel Reds when I could find them or Camel royal, gold, filters, crush bold un-crushed and this is very similar and better than all the Camels with a C and tied with Kamel Reds. I’ve been smoking the PS Turkish blend for a couple years. The Danish Export is great mixed with it, so is the Amsterdam. I sometimes mix a lighter one in like Norwegian or Virginia with the Turkish , Danish Export or Amsterdam. The Danish Export and Amsterdam are darker and the others are lighter. Turkish is perfectly in the middle. It might be a little too strong for you if you prefer light cigarettes. Then I’d go with the Virginia or Norwegian ( these are all Peter Stokkebbye blends). The other blends don’t taste quite right, if you are used to cigarettes from the gas station. English is not right and if you check the pictures of the rest then you can probably assume they aren’t like regular cigarette tobacco anyway. The blends I mentioned of PS are the best for Camel smokers, that I’ve come across on my journey to finding a more inexpensive method of smoking, without sacrificing taste at all! Actually, the test is better and it’s about 1/8th of the cost. I live in the midwest too, so even a bigger difference other places!

This blend is actually better
This blend is actually better than Camel. I was looking for a replacement for Camel and read about Peter Stokkebye #87. I bought a couple of ounces as a test. It was cut well for rolling and the flavor is wonderful. Slightly mellower than Camel, it is perfect for me.

Very hard to find now June 2021
I've been smoking Peter Stokkebye 84 Turkish exclusively as RYO for many years...when I smoke; I prefer to smoke Turkish 84. It is the mildest, smoothest tobacco I have ever tasted. The reviewers who are saying it has bite, and is stronger than this or that, must have had it sitting around awhile or it was exposed to hot temps during the mailing process. This tobacco is pretty wet and hard to smoke when it is super fresh. I had some like that last May. Once the pandemic set in, it was harder and harder to find. I found some in August, then finally bought some from P&C in January, as I couldn't find it anywhere else. I just received another order yesterday, but had to pay 35 cents more per oz. than in Jan. The price here is higher than I have ever paid as well. Now, I am afraid when P&C's supply runs out, there will not be any anywhere. The US has strained relations with Turkey, I think and the pandemic, I'm sure has put a kink in the supply, but I don't think they package it here, so don't know if it's relevant....Anyway, I am truly hoping to see it being carried in other places soon. I bought 3 times more this time than I usually do, just so I wouldn't get caught with none. I'll have to put this in my c-vault with a Boveda moisture pack, in order to keep it from drying out and getting harsh. I have been trying a couple of other Turkish blends to see if there is anything else close the #84, but if my fears come true, and I can't find anything close to this blend, then I will quit smoking again before I will go back to ready-rolls, or some other inferior tasting tobacco. If that happens; y'all can smoke a good one for me. :}

VERY pleased!
I saw this and figured I'd try it. I am so glad I did! I am primarily a burley smoker but this tobacco is not quite as strong as burley and I find myself smoking more of it than any other blends I have. For me, it's a keeper and I will keep purchasing it.

Read the good reviews and
Read the good reviews and bought 12 oz. Started smoking this with a new cob. After 3 days of breakin, developed a substantial appreciation. Gave up the cigs after noting how lackluster and flavorless they were. Slow and lightly smoked brings out a delightful clean flavor I enjoy. RYO is impressive too. I bought another 12 oz. Haven't bought a pack of cigs in a week or more.

Reviewing the Peter Stokkebye Turkish tobacco.
Not bad at all. Was like most Turkish. Stayed lit thru the smoking session and didn't experience any tongue bite or discomfort. Still have a good amount leftg.

Turkish is nice
Finally a smooth tobacco not heavily soaked in artificial flavors. I find this to be a smooth rich tobacco that satisfies. Good on its own but great for blending as well.

A Different Kind of Review
I smoked for 40 years, then switched over to Vaping seven years ago. About three years ago I began extracting tobacco flavors at home (cold maceration). Peter Stokkebye's 84 Turkish is easily one of my favorites. The mixture of Turkish Samsoun and Virginia tobaccos makes for a light, smooth and modestly sweet vaping flavor. This can be used as an "All-Day Vape" due to it's delectable yet inoffensive flavor profile. Because this selection contains no additional flavorings or sugars, it comes out very clean - important to Vapers for their Gear. I have shared this extract with maybe eight or ten of my friends in the Vaping community, and it has always been well received. I recommend this flavor to anyone, Smoker or Vaper.

Not totally satisfying as a stand alone for my own personal taste, but not bad either. Mixed with an Amsterdam blend, beautiful.
3 out of 5
Great for RYO...
but not so great as a stand alone pipe tobacco. I bought 3 ounces recently and found that I don't care for it in a pipe . I added 2 ounces of Stokkebye 702 Burley to it and that changed things to my liking. The aroma is now Burley forward but it still has flavor characteristics of the Virginia and the Oriental tobaccos too.
5 out of 5
Simple, wonderful
It's one of those tobaccos that can fit into anything, anytime, anywhere. You can smoke it alone as the lingering flavors are most pleasant. You can safely add it to any blend where it lends a light warmth to the notes. It is heady and warm, but not thick. This is one of those most lovely tobaccos that will always remain on my shelves.

PS 84 Turk is a good smoke any way you like it!
Good smoke- the blend of the sun-dried Turkish with the Virginias makes a blend almost as great as the original Turkish Govt Monopoly tobacco no longer available in this country. This smokes well in a pipe and can be used to make a superior RYO. Time to stock up multiple pounds of this before it "disappears" from the marketplace...

Flavorful, relatively low nic cig or pipe
I love this tobacco.. searched a long time to replace my "Turkish Gov't Monopoly" which I used to get in 5lb buckets before that supply was cut off from importation thanks to obongo. This is a decent substitute and stands alone, IMO. Naturally I would prefer the Turk stuff, but in comparing this to that, (I stashed some of the Turk Monopoly) there isnt a lot of difference in flavor or smoke... Sometimes to kick up the flavor I mix with a bit of Izmir (which I also enjoy stand alone) but mostly the PS84 is what I reach for. Smooth, no bite.. Makes a good cig too..

Very Pleased!
This is a great blending tobacco. I use it to make Balkan and English Oriental.

So Far So Good
I am still holding out judgement on this tobacco, which I use for RYO. I am using this in a "Fresh Choice" machine, and I have found the heavy amount of moisture in this tobacco to be problematic. That said, I am now trying a more aggressive drying procedure; hopefully this will help me to be happier with it.

I’ve had a “go to” pipe and tobacco shop that I’ve gone to for years, but the prices have risen to a level that even with the high shipping costs, Pipes and Cigars beats them hands down.

I’m not a big fan of this tobacco. It has little flavor and sometimes it so dry feeling like hay. I’ll be going back to captain black. Thank

Turkish Pipe Tobacco
I had always wanted to see what the Turkish tobacco was all about. You were kind enough to offer it in a small enough amount to sample. I have smoked two or three pipeloads and can't find anything bad about it or spectacular either. I probably won't buy it again but will keep reading your ads and will probably order something else I would like to sample. That's why I rated it as I did.

Mild but flavorful
This too is a mellow smoke very similar to Stokkeby's Norwegian. Like its counterpart, it blends well with a more robust tobacco, but it is very pleasant as it is, with a scarcely noticeable room note.

The best tobacco
The tastiest tobacco that I have ever tasted. It is sweet and spicey on the retrohale. The tobacco came very moist, almost wet. I have to let some dry out before I can smoke it, but I like that better than bone dry like some of the reviews that I’ve seen. This my all day smoke. I definitely will be ordering this again if they have in stock when I need to order.

Highest Quality
Wonderful blend with a well rounded taste, the Turkish is in there and gives a smooth taste all the way through, I told it and smoke it in a pipe this cut allows you to do jist that, its velvety and mild to medium bodied depending on how you smoke it. This blend is neutral and even blends well with other tobaccos and of high quality delivering a satisfying smoke all the way through, I would recommend this blend with very high regards as it is what it says it is and some. Peter Stokkebye is one of the best tobacco blenders in the world hands down and no doubt about it.

Good tobacco.
I mixed it with a Lane cherry flavor and someone said to me it smells like a cigar. Turkish is very smooth and adding a flavor to it makes it very nice...and less complaints from the nonsmokers.

What does Stokkebye Turkish tobacco taste like? Hush up, it's a secret!
I think that this Peter Stokkebye blend 84 Turkish must gain more and more respect from seasoned pipe smokers who try it for the first time. I had never tried it even though I researched the Best Selling Tobaccos List and Stokkebye Bull's Eye flake became my favorite for awhile. Now I love the Turkish, what can I say? Highly affordable and reminds me of Lane HS-3, priced more like 1Q. Give yourself 4 ounces, should be enough to compare, and you will open a whole new idea about tobacco tastes.

Nice for ryo turkish cigs
Great tasting turkish blend for ryo cigs. Tasted good on its own and I liked it even better blended with some izmir and ps-81. I keep this one around at all times for my turkish blend cravings.

Great smoke
This is really good tobacco for RYO, I think it is mild, not to strong and has a good flavor. I was rolling my cigs to tight and was having a problem with them going out and having a bite to them. Now rolling them looser and no problem, smokes good and enjoying the tobacco. This tobacco is a lot better than store bought smokes. Used to smoke luckys, pallmall, chesterfeilds , phillip morris commanders and camels. Out of my price range now, I like this tobacco and the price is right. Will be purchasing this again. Glad i found pipes and cigars

Too wet
I've purchased this before & it was absolutely amazing. For some reason, this time it was very wet. I don't mean moist either... It was wet. I had to dry it out to smoke it. The packaging wasn't wet at all. It obviously hadn't been exposed to the weather. Not sure what happened.

kind of reminds me of the taste of bugler a bit sharp for me, smoked in a cigarette

If it is popular and sells alot you're got to try it!!!
I have not yet been disappointed buying tobacco I haven't tried yet off the P&C Best Sellers!!! It has been true that I have not preferred some blends, but it has always been true that they have all been worth the taste. As a matter of fact, I have tried blends I did not prefer but later came back and loved them. You must start with what you know and buying off the Best Selling tobacco list at P&C tells you that lots and lots of people are buying classic tobaccos and for good reason-they taste the BEST.

Not for the pipe
Obviously intended as a cigarette tobacco, this Turkish blend will not appeal to many pipe smokers. If packed tightly enough to avoid a very harsh fast burning smoke, and smoked very carefully, it is passable. Add a decent amount of Latakia and smoke slowly, and it becomes acceptable.

Turkish character with a touch of Virginia - my favorite primary component in RYO and an excellent condiment to any aromatic pipe blend. Sold with just the right amount of moisture to last the whole bag without rehydrating.

I have to say, this blend was very disappointing. I'm a big fan of Turkish blends but this stuff tasted like cheap cigarette tobacco. It burned very hot but went out frequently. It's not the worst pipe tobacco I've ever had, but it's close.

good moisture, good cut, good color. nice tobacco smell with a just a hint of a floral note. not sickly sweet like an aro. BUT... tastes like a cigarette if you dont take it easy. makes for a good mixer with latakia. if you are ginger about it, it will offer you a light, slightly sweet tobacco experience. hammer it and it gets harsh and boring.

GREAT!
Peter Stokkebye 84 Turkish is a great, economical, mid-shelf alternative to McClelland Grand Orientals Classic Samsun. I love Peter Stokkebye 84 Turkish. I smoke it in my pipes and rolled into cigarettes. I love Samsun turkish tobacco. I love Camel Classic non-filter cigarettes but they cost almost $10 a pack. Now, I don't buy Camel non-filters because I roll my own cigarettes using Peter Stokkebye 84 Turkish.

BEST and HIGHEST QUALITY tobacco you can buy for a GREAT PRICE!!!
TASTES JUST LIKE A CAMEL TURKISH ROYAL!!! such a wonderful and full flavored cigarette for a fraction of the price you can buy at any store. will be ordering again and again and again. LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! even my friends who despise "rollies" ask for my cigarettes now. :) would recommend to anyone who smokes. very smooth as well.

Classic and Flavorful
I'm Glad Peter Stockkebye offers this tobacco because you can always enjoy it by itself but it goes well with Perique, for example, which strengthens the taste very well, turning it from a nice light pipe to strong; always very very tasty.

almost special
There is a little something special about Peter Stokkebye 84 Turkish --just a little something special though, not a lot! I love Camel Turkish cigarettes, and that's almost what this blend reminds me off. I'll probably order it again in the future.

I use this blend for cigarettes and it works! I will never ever buy another pack of cigarettes as long you still carry this tobacco. Its burns and tastes soo much cleaner then the mass produced garbage they sell today. I know its pipe tobacco however it I believe it can be dual purpose tobacco. FYI I smoke Marlborough Lights for 20 years. As for Pipe's and Cigar's Hands Down best company to deal with. Shipping is fast and they are awesome to deal with.

SOOO flavorful
I used to always buy this at my local tobacco shop in buffalo - but when I moved to cleveland, there just wasn't a tobacco shop close by. Being able to by this online is incredible.. Takes me right back to Buffalo. Great product, perfect for rolling your own smokes - also works great in pipes. The decision is yours.

Good if not great...
A good decent set it and forget it blend. Certainly better than the Norway to my palate, but this relatively fine ribbon blend has a nice subtle flavor that is pleasant but doesn't demand all of your attention. A good basic smoke for when you aren't able to focus on your smoke exclusively.
Customer Testimonials
This is a really enjoyable tobacco. Very smooth with a gentle taste and aroma which hides that in ten minutes you will become aware of the nicotine.
WG of GlenBurnie, MD
What this is and what it isn't. This is "not" your atypical "pipe" tobacco. Isn't designed to be. This is a European style cut and blend. It's meant primarily for rolling a smoke, smoking in a very small bowled meerschaum or clay, or for blending. Is it cigarette tobacco - technically no it isn't. It's a pipe cut and a pipe blend. It's not meant to be put in a filtered tube either, that would be "shag" cut. This is ribbon. But, its cut and it's design facilitates rolling old school. No filter, generally by hand. I enjoy it very much rolled. It's light to medium bodied and has a nice smooth, slightly sweet flavor. Cool burning and not bite. For the money you just cannot beat this quality. It's great on it's own, and it's great as a blender. It smooths out the blend, adds tobacco body to it. Unflavored tobacco. Just leaf here folks. I've not found that this line of tobacco's, Turkish, Amsterdam, Norwegian, Danish Export to be great bases for blending, but in a blend that is too weak, or too "flavorful" (ie latakia bombs) they work very nicely in evening out the blend and adding some simple tobacco flavor and a nice measure of nicotine, without throwing the overall balance out of whack. Flavor neutral. A fairly light smoke compared to the others in this genre. Not an "oriental" at all - this is just Turkish leaf. Generally a "oriental" meant for blending will be a mixture of varietal oriental leafs to obtain a certain body and flavor. It's great stuff. Grab a few ounces and a pack of papers, or a small meerschaum, you'll enjoy it. Takes a light nicely and burns evenly, cool and dry with little to no bite. Very one dimensional in flavor - straight slightly sweet Turkish. Start to finish. This mixed 50/50 with Norwegian makes an awesome smoke.
TS of Tulsa, OK
Love the taste of this tobacco I will be ordering more very soon.
KJ of Aiea, HI
I like this alot. It was a bit moist (never a bad thing) so I spread it out and let it dry a little - to just "crispy" around the edges. Makes for a great smoke, very Camel-ish. I will definitely be getting more.
IP of Sherman Oaks, CA
Absolutely love the light smoke, and flavor as well as the body. I mix this with a little heavier blend and it absolutely kills! Love it on it's own almost more than any other tobacco on it's own.
MM of Kapolei, HI
I found this pleasant at first, but it became somewhat harsh about half way through the bowl. Perhaps it needs to be smoked very slowly to maintain the lighter tones.
PW of Hot Springs Village, AR
This tobacco was very neat, in the way it's taste is ... very smooth, little bite at the finish and very pleasing for me, I might purchase another bulk in the near future.
