Hasn't been a review for a while, let's get it going again.
Frenchy's Sunza Bitches:
From the Hearth and Home series on www.pipesandcigars.com comes this interesting blend. "Perique up the ying yang and, according to the baggie, Bright Virginia Flake and Burley finished with Bourbon."
The pouch aroma is sweet, but the bourbon doesn't come across as too strong, it seems to be a fairly light topping. The top 1/3 of the bowl is heavenly. Sort of a nutty burley taste with the sweetness of the topping, and burns like a dream with copious smoke. The second 1/3 kicks it up a notch with some heavier flavors kicking in, probably the perique showing it's stuff. The last 1/3 of the bowl is SPICY. That perique really kicks in here, making for a perique lover's dream.
All in all, this is by far my favorite blend yet. Not that I've had all that many, but man is this stuff good.
