I've been smoking a pipe on and off for the last seven years, and I thought by now that I knew what perique tasted like, and how to identify it in a tobacco blend. Last night I smoked a bowl of Mac Baren's HH Acadian Perique... and, well, if there was any of what I've thought was perique in there, I didn't taste it. It occurs to me that I may not know how to hone in on the taste of perique. So, I ask what may be a stupid question: what does perique taste like, and what are some good ways to distinguish it when it's in the presence of other tobaccos?
Also, I've been curious about cavendish. What exactly makes a tobacco cavendish? I understand the stuff in Captain Black is just burley that's really heavily cased, but what about the "uncased cavendish" in some Mac Baren blends, or the cavendish in Dunhill's 965?
Also, what about dark-fired Kentucky? Is it kind of like to virginia what latakia is to turkish?
