Jim's C&D Carolina Red Flake With Perique 2023 Review.

[orvet]

I'm smoking my first Bowl of this offering even as I write this. Excellent review Jim not much I can add to it, except to say that I really enjoy it.
It seems this blend has a good deal of age on it. This flakes were soft, and broke up with little effort and packed very nicely. A very nice smoke! Not something I would smoke all day long but certainly a very nice change of pace and I could see myself smoking more than one bowl per day.

Just got my 5 tins in plus some other stuff. Had to take over one of my wife's shelves in the storage closet. I'm in the slow process of mind control to convince her that tobacco is way more valuable to store than her worthless junk.

Good luck with that, lol.

I would advise the opposite approach, encourage more junk collection to water down the perceived amounts you hoard...

This version has the strongest perique content, and is mildly sweeter and more savory than previous years. Four stars.

I found myself snagging a few but my dainty palette is sensitive to perique. I'll be trying one soon but after reading this, I think I'll very much enjoy this blend in the early 2030's.

My few tins went to the back of the line as well. I’ll enjoy it with you then!

Is CRF without perique ever coming back?

I'm curious about the room note being "pungent"! What would you liken the room note to, anyone who's tried it?

2022 release was CRF sans Perique. It will be back.

You know that scent, right after the throes of passion? Yeah, it smells like that.

It's just another word for strong (a word I use a lot as it is). M'lady said the smell of the spice and plums were strong as she was waving the smoke away from her when she walked into the room.
