Peretti Burley?????

I have not tried any of Peretti's blends mainly because they are a little pricey. Burlies should be simple,tasty and inexpensive. tobaccoreviews.com's first entry into the Pipe Tobacco Hall of Fame is Prince Albert and for good reason. It is a great relaxing smoke with a wonderful aroma that will have the women rubbing the inside of your thighs. Many of these old time blends are often overlooked and ignored. That is a big mistake. There is no prestige in overpaying. Can be had at JR Cigar online for dirt cheap. Also try "Sugar Barrel" another oldtimer that I like alot.

Pricey? Only in MA. Many bulk blends go for $20 for 8 oz.

"All Burley/American blends are priced as follows:
$2.80-oz. / $20.00-8oz. / $40.00-lb.
(When ordering from Massachusetts: $3.35-oz. / $24.00-8oz. / $48.00-lb.)" from site: Peretti Burley Page

My favorites are D-9575 and Cuban Mixture

Add another vote for Peretti's BPC and 333 burleys. The two blends are VERY close in flavor, but I think the BPC is just a bit sweeter. I have some old half pounds of each sleeping in the basement, along with some Blend W.
