TASTING PACK

Latest update June 6, 2011

The aromatic (artificially flavoured) blends were not as easy, as we did not have access to the chemical formulae which make each blend unique. We now import smooth Burley-based, concentrated flavoured tobaccos from the USA, which are then blended in South Africa to our instructions.

DUTCH TYPE BLEND

FOR BLENDING

No.8 Navy Cut Full Full strength, dark, rubbed flake. Non-aromatic. Ideal to strengthen a blend.	No.59 Dark Transvaal Strong, unpressed, easy-burning.
7g 50g 250g 500g R5.00 R40.00 R186.25 R339.10	7g 50g 250g 500g R5.00 R40.00 R186.25 R339.10
No.19 Pure Latakia This tobacco makes an excellent flavouring agent, taking away any cloying sweetness. It normally constitutes up to 15% of a blend.	No.20 Pure Perique A tobacco with a sweet and flavourful taste achieved by long cold maturation, it is strong and spicy, and less than 5% is usually sufficient.
7g 50g 250g 500g R7.00 R58.00 R270.00 R491.60	50g R99.50

Note: It is very difficult to spread pure Perique evenly throughout a mixture - it is much better to mix it in before processing. To create an homogeneous blend including Perique, use No.58 which contains a high percentage of Perique already spread and mellowed, and much easier to incorporate.

TASTING PACK One of the most important factors for enjoying your pipe is to find the correct tobacco for the occasion. The answer is to experiment methodically; and we would like to help. There are only 6 basic groups of tobacco mixtures, so it is quite practical to try each type, and eliminate the flavours/tastes you don't like. The Wesley Houseblend Tasting Pack covers these basic groups: Nos. 1, 15, 24, 25, 41, 46, 43, 55, 58 (total of 110g of tobacco). The pack includes a copy of “The Perfect Blend” which helps to identify and correct problems. Available in a simple pouch – or in a stunning glass tobacco jar.

48-HBSampJar2 R226.50 Medium/Large Holds average 350g     To purchase a Tobacco jar separately, click here

Total: 110g - R91.50

Once you have settled in with your tobacco you may occasionally feel like
a change in flavour, but may be hesitant to try a new blend.
This is the time to try a different pipe.

Corncob, Clay and Meerschaum all give a different taste to your tobacco
- since they don't have the flavour of lightly charcoaled briar.
You'll be surprised and pleased at the change.

Have fun experimenting, and don't be shy to ask.

Enjoy your tobacco!
