Peter Stokkebye Proper English No. 52: The appearance is mostly dark brown with some black ribbon-cut pieces. The aroma from this bag of 2 year-old aged tobacco is fruity, musty and tangy with a characteristic oriental tobacco scent. This is a very balanced English, not too heavy on any particular component. The Latakia is rich and smooth but not a bully. The orientals lend a pleasant diversity to the taste experience. The Virginia provides the matrix to hold it all together with natural sweetness. I have smoked it in 4 or 5 pipes and every time have had a pleasant smoking experience. Tonight I'm having it in a Savinelli Punto Oro 906 EX with the Corallo finish. It is a slightly bent stacked billiard with a tall bowl; this tobacco smokes great all the way to the bottom of the bowl. Proper English is a very good medium strength English offered at a reasonable price.
