No company uses St. James perique in all their blends due to its cost. That's why you don't notice it. Btw, are you sure that isn't a Peter Stokkebye blend? They make that blend.A bulk blend said to be a Sutliff English Oriental Supreme in a Lorenzo Spitfire Filtro. I can only find a PS blend by this exact name, but the Sutliff is supposed to have St. James Perique. I can get only a bit of pepper on retrohale, so I'll need to check with the seller again. If it is Sutliff English Oriental #400341, it's a sleeper, as it's pretty good to me for under $4 an ounce. It's my way of trying latakia besides the C&D Odessa I've tried. Think I'm going to like latakia blends.
I was going by the TR description for that blend. The Sutliff site also claims it has St. James perique, and that would be a nice surprise to be able to obtain if still true. I've contacted them to confirm.No company uses St. James perique in all their blends due to its cost. That's why you don't notice it. Btw, are you sure that isn't a Peter Stokkebye blend?

I see the discrepancy, now. The PS blend is English Oriental Supreme. Sutliff's blend is named English Oriental.I was going by the TR description for that blend. The Sutliff site also claims it has St. James perique, and that would be a nice surprise to be able to obtain if still true. I've contacted them to confirm.

I suspect it is the PS, but want to ask the person at the shop who orders it. I'd wanted to try the PS also, so glad I found it. It's whetted my appetite for latakia.
If you like Latakia and orientals you should try Arango Balkan Supreme.A bulk blend said to be a Sutliff English Oriental Supreme in a Lorenzo Spitfire Filtro.

Passes EZ another cup of coffee in an effort to console him.Smoking a Vauen bent pot with MB Navy flake and a mug of 8 o`clock coffee. My wife and I had THE TALK again last night, So I guess I am now a pipe seller on e-bay,rather than a buyer.
