Peter Stokkebye – Luxury Bullseye Flake (No. 403)
Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note Perique (161) 2013-02-01 Medium Extremely Mild Medium Pleasant An excellent tobacco and a fanastic value, let me start by saying this is nothing at all like Escudo in tin note, taste or aroma. Should not be approached as a bulk substitute for Escudo as, from this perspective, the Escudo smoker will be disappointed. The coins are far more loosely pressed than Escudo coins and some crumbling will occur in bulk packages during shipping. Does not effect the flavor and, if anything, makes the coin easier to rub out. From the first puff I was impressed with this blend. Very smooth-smoking with the sweetness in the background – there just enough to balance out the blend and, as the description reads “round the taste”. That description is apt. The Perique is very mild in this tobacco, the Virginias smooth and non-biting, and there is a subtle sweetness from the Cavendish core. Not an aromatic, by any stretch. Not a true VaPer. Certainly not a Virginia flake. This is a wonderful combination of the best of all three worlds and I would highly recommend this tobacco, destined to become one of my favorite all-day, everyday smokes. Definitely one to stock up on and cellar. Similar Blends: Davidoff – Flake Medallions. 102 people found this review helpful.
Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note JimInks (2912) 2014-11-07 Mild to Medium Extremely Mild Medium Pleasant The Virginias are a little more grassy than they are earthy and woody, which makes for a nice contrast. They also have some tart and tangy citrus, and light tangy dark fruit and honey, in addition to a mild rough edge, which I attribute to the youth of the tobacco. The perique is spicy with raisin, plum, and fig sweetness as an important second lead. The lightly vanilla-ish black cavendish in the center is small, so its smoothing effect isn’t a consistent one no matter how you prepare the coins. The strength and nic-hit are in the center of mild to medium, while the taste just reaches the medium mark. Won’t bite, but fast puffing may result in a harsh note if the tobacco is not aged. The coins are easily rubbed out, and burns at a moderate pace, clean and rather cool with a fairly consistent flavor, except for when you hit a spot where the black cav is. Doesn’t require many relights, and easily burns to ash. Leaves very little moisture in the bowl. Has a short lived, pleasant after taste and room note. It’s fine fresh, but benefits from age, and I recommend you do that if you can. -JimInks 85 people found this review helpful.
Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note RickPiatt (16) 2006-05-19 Medium to Strong None Detected Medium Tolerable Up front, what you need to know about the reviewer: I’m a lover of VAs, Burleys, Englishes – this tobacco should be right up my alley. I’m a very slow smoker – typical bowl takes 1hr45min. I sip my pipes, I don’t guzzle the smoke. I’m a complete nicotine whimp. Yup, when it comes to nicotine, I’m a girly man. The pipe I tested this in was my oldest. Its not a high priced pipe but its well seasoned with a strong cake buildup and it always smokes like dream. The last tobacco smoked in it was Wessex Burley Slice – there shouldn’t be any noticeable cross over after the first few minutes. I’m typically bad at folding flakes and stuffing them into pipes – takes me too many relights for my liking … ok, lets get to it: Even though I’m bad at folding and stuffing flakes (heck, the coins are big enough to be treated like flakes in this tobacco folks) I took two coins, folded them and stuffed them into my Bjarne Viking Classic Bent Bulldog. The pipe is a good group 4+ size. I rubbed a little of the tobacco out fully to top the bowl with to make lighting easier. This tobacco is a no nonsense half dollar sized coin of VA with (apparently) a 1/4″ spot in the center of uncased Cavendish. It smells of a hay field on a dewy morning – quite inviting to a VA smoker. Initial char, tamp, and relight: This tobacco is perfect moisture-wise! It lit with ease and there was absolutely NO tongue bite whatsoever. The flavor is kind of bland at initial lite up. The room note seems to be as expected just a pure VA tobacco so it is not likely to be a wife pleaser, but its not bad at all to my senses. First 1/3 bowl: the tobacco kept up a nice, pleasant, yet unremarkable VA flavor for the first 1/3 of the bowl. Its nothing to write home about so far, but not bad for a VA. I’m sure this is the same VA component used in Luxury Navy Flake so if you like LNF, you’re going to love this tobacco as well. There is NO tongue bite at all so far. 2nd 1/3 bowl: the flavors are blossoming nicely now. The VA tobacco is filling out and getting much sweeter than in the beginning. Somewhere in the middle of this third of the bowl something noticeably sweet crossed my palate. I know this sounds weird, but I think the ember just reached one of the Cavendish bullseyes. The flavor lasted for only a minute or so, but it was a wonderful explosion of sweetness that was totally unexpected. There is still no tongue bite at all, this stuff is as smooth as silk but the nicotine levels are rising and my head is starting to spin. I put the pipe aside for about 15 minutes to stop the spinning … lets see how this tobacco does DGTd (albiet, a short DGT). Final 1/3 bowl: This tobacco just keeps on delivering. No ashy flavor, just sweet, mellow fields of hay and again, another blast of that something sweet (the 2nd bullseye dot from the 2nd coin????). Its such a surprise when it comes that I absolutely enjoy it. The bowl is starting to need numerous relights – this is my fault! Remember, I told you at the start that I’m not very good at folding and stuffing flakes into a pipe … but even now, after about 3-4 relights there is no tongue bite at all. Oh, by the way, the room is spinning, my temples are pounding, I’m fairly loopey – the nicotine has made me slow down even slower than my usual, I’m just barely sipping on the pipe now. The flavor is wonderful. Dottle: Well, I have nothing but a dark grey ash left. Again as I said at the outset, the moisture level was perfect for this tobacco. My pipe never gurgled once and it’s a bent pipe! Overall perceptions: If you’re a Stokkebye fan, you’re sure to love this tobacco. The appearance is stunning in a DSK kind of way with the bullseye being a different colored tobacco center dot in the middle of the coin. If you’re a VA fan, this should hit a home run as well. When it comes to VAs I’m a lakeland fan smoking predominantly Samuel Gawith tobaccos (BBF / FVF) and find the VAs here are tasty but not as sweet and fulfilling as the lakeland tobac. Those little dots of cavendish – if that is what I tasted – are worth a test drive even if you don’t like this kind of tobacco. Its probably just a slight bit stronger than “medium” on the nicotine side … but enough that it made my head swim. Stronger than Wessex Burley Slices, weaker than Escudo if that helps you. Soooo, do I recommend this tobacco? Heck yes. On a scale of 1-10 I’d rate it a good 6 – would have been a 7.5 if the nicotine level were more managable. Will I buy it again? Maybe. I really like my lakeland tobaccos so maybe not. But, I’m sure glad I had the chance to test drive this tobac. Total smoking time: 2hr15min – minus 15min needed to recover from nicotine overload. 85 people found this review helpful.
Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note Jaybee (77) 2007-11-21 Medium Mild Medium Pleasant There are several Stokkebye offerings that I enjoy, but none as much as this one. With so many good Va/pers available, I’m a little surprised that I enjoy LBF almost to the exclusion of others. The 1.5 lb box looks like a tray of poker chips. The coins rub out easily and the smoke is sublime…more natural than Luxury Twist Flake, less harsh that Luxury Navy Flake and stronger than the now defunct Luxury Curly Cut. LBF and I have become fast friends…….. Addendum: They Stokkebye website recommends rubbing out this flake and packing it lightly in the pipe. I have tried a variety of pipes and packing methods, and I have to agree that their recommendation provides the best result. 45 people found this review helpful.
Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note Emeritus Account (30082) 2009-02-19 Mild Extremely Mild Mild to Medium Pleasant to Tolerable Puff Daddy nailed it for me. Not much to add except to reiterate that the virginias tasted and smoked “youthful”. This tobacco has the makings of a very good blend but it needs some aging. I’ve cellared a couple of pounds and I’m going to sample a bit in a year, two years, 3 years, until I think it’s matured. I did take out a small batch and added a dash of perique, which improved the taste slightly. I honestly think this just needs some time to simmer. As it is, it’s a decent smoke – not objectionable. Reminds me of a somewhat spicier MacBaren’s Virginia Flake. Nothing offputting, just no “zing” if that makes any sense. If you like a nice mild VaPer with no bite, try this one. It’s “good enough” but I think it might get better with age. 36 people found this review helpful.

The presentation is wonderful and proves to be a nice conversation piece whenever anyone sees you playing with the discs to prepare to smoke. As for how I smoke it. I simply rub it out and enjoy. I actually prefer this to Escudo, but I like my tobaccos a little sweet. This is by no means an aromatic, but it is smoother to my tastes than most VaPers. 32 people found this review helpful.
Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note musicman (114) 2012-04-25 Mild to Medium Extremely Mild Mild to Medium Pleasant I love this stuff, in fact I love most of the Stokkebye VA offerings. This is the type of stuff that real experienced pipe smokers enjoy. There are no fancy packages here, just great quality at a great price. These little round beauties offer the same quality as their counterparts that come in nice tins, for a greatly reduced price. I am a Virginia lover at heart and so I really like this blend. It kind of reminds me of Orlik Golden sliced with the high citrus notes toned down a little. There is a nice balance of perique here too, just enough to give a good flavor and a little tingle in the nose. I am not really sure if the black Cavendish adds much to this blend in terms of flavor, but it sure does make those little round coins look very handsome. One of the real advantages of these Stokkebye blends is their superior agebility. This blend is nice fresh, but it is outstanding with a couple years on it, and the bulk pricing allows you to stock up and wait for the magic to happen. Get some, it is good. Highly recommended. 31 people found this review helpful.
Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note Emeritus Account (30082) 2007-06-26 Mild to Medium Mild Mild to Medium Pleasant to Tolerable I almost didn’t try this because of the “center of cavendish” — which isn’t my cup of tea. I like the Virginias, the vapers. Serendipitously I ignored my prejudices and ordered 4oz. of this beauty. It gets points just for presentation — swirled disks that look like, well, yes, bull’s-eyes. The cavendish center is exactly enough to give a flavor tint without it becoming a cavendish — just a slight modulation to the normal vaper taste. What a beauty. Careful — its light flavor disguises a healthy nicotine kick if you’re not ready for it. I’ve already developed a working technique for it — fold a disk in half and rub it into the bowl. Okay, two of them if it’s a big bowl. Lights exceptionally well, doesn’t require huffing to keep it puffing, and gives a satisfying, tasty, clean, and dry smoke to the bottom. Well done, Mr. Stokkeybye! 30 people found this review helpful.
Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note JustinCarcerated (99) 2014-06-16 Mild to Medium Extremely Mild Mild to Medium Pleasant I have been looking forward to this blend since I began my pipe dream two years ago, based primarily on your reviews. So the baggie note is fresh, hayish, and sweet, as in black Cav sweet. Its appearance is more….natural if you will then say Escudo. Rough spun edges, less density in construction. Kind of akin to comparing a machine made Petit Corona to a Backwoods Twist. These descriptives aren’t meant to deter from this review, as the flavor profile correlates to these ‘raw’ descriptives. What it may lack in refinement LBF more than makes up for in bright, fresh flavor. The Vas gave absolutely no bite at all, albeit at the expense of the vitamin nicotine. The perique, which is to me unusually spicy even for a perique, benefits from the smooth interaction of the black cavendish. I tried these coins shredded, but that density of sweet smoothness was lost to me when not stuffed whole. Cobs and billiards did best for me, nice slow burn. Now take into account the value of LBF, and it makes it that much more desirable. So for me this is a 4 star blend: I will begin cellaring jars of this, not being concerned that it would overtake Escudo’s role, rather it will provide me with a different taste in VaPer coins. Highly Recommended..to everyone, including aro lovers, as an all day smoke. Wish I would have tried this sooner.

Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note H Gillman (39) 2014-07-17 Mild None Detected Mild to Medium Pleasant This is a very nice blend. I got 16oz of it based on the brethren reviews here. I am glad I did. It came in a large zip lock so the “bag” note is nice. Subtle sweetness and spicy side notes from the perique. The medallions are nice to look at and make portioning a snap. I fold two and lightly stuff into the bowl. Char …..light…tamp…and go. I found the initial draws to be filled with the blended leaf. I tasted the perique and hints of the cavendish. That wisp of sweetness from the cavendish really goes well with the perique and virginia. From top to bottom bowl, this was a delight to smoke. Roll it around your tongue and exhale through your nose and you will get the depth of the flavour. French inhaling is a joy since this is so mellow and mild. note I tried several bowls by hand rubbing two medallions then smoking. They smoke beautifully however the flavours blend too much and meld. To truly enjoy each flavour layer try folding and lightly stuffing. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good smoke with no bite. I’m glad I bought a pound. 2015-01-28 UPDATE 6 months in a large sealed mason jar aided in the flavour of this tobacco immensely. After 6 months I opened the jar and loved what I smelled. Pinot noir wine with a very sweet yet deep aroma. It is smoother and nicer than when I first tried it. I have enough to be able to do a 6 month updates for a few years to come.

Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note Emeritus Account (30082) 2007-04-01 Mild to Medium None Detected Medium to Full Pleasant I have tried countless Virginia flake tobaccos, many of which were excellent, in search of a tobacco that might approach the original, noble Escudo. While Luxury Bullseye seems a tad sweeter, probably because it has a little less Perique than Escudo, it fits the bill and, in fact, were the original Escudo still available, I think I would stick with the Bullseye. It is deliciously smooth yet maintains a satisfying fullness throughout the smoke, and never sours toward the end of the bowlful. The more I smoke it, the better I like it although I trade off with Penzance during the smoking day which makes each blend taste better, given the difference. After first trying Luxury Bullseye, I then tried Peter Stokebbye’s Luxury Navy Flake, which I liked a lot, but not as much as the Bullseye. I have found my Virginia flake! 20 people found this review helpful.

The strength was there, the Virginia flavor was semi-sweet and not at all tart or tangy. The tobacco was at a beautiful moisture level and the spun leaf rubbed out easily. I’ll give this one a tepid recomendation. My palate says this is a fine blend for strength and flavor. My body chemistry said NO!

This is a meat and potatoes type blend for me. Pretty basic, but it’s just complex enough to be interesting. The sweet hay taste of VAs is prevalent and then the little bit of Cavendish adds a little more sweetness for a slightly sweet rather basic, straightforward smoke. Highly affordable.

Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note Tantric (321) 2016-07-27 Medium Very Mild Medium Pleasant to Tolerable I very much admire most of Peter Stokkebye’s blends, and I especially like Luxury Navy Flake. The type of matured (probably flu cured) Viriginias used are palatable, non-biting, smooth, and elegant. Périque is there but not in an obstrusive way. Rather than overwhelming the other components, it is used sparingly, just to add a piquant touch. Well, Bullseye Flake is exactly that with the added Cavendish centre. It is not entirely black-sweetened-cavendish (as in Captain Black), but rather a mild, slightly sweet brown cavendish, which indeed “rounds” the taste and makes this flake smoother, creamier and diverse. Though similar, this flake is not as pungent and sharp as Escudo (which I also love) or Dunhill’s De Luxe Navy Rolls. If anything it’s closer to Davidoff’s Flake Medallions. Equally elegant, savory and smooth….but at half the price! I highly recommend this tobacco to any VaPer or straight Virginia lover (Périque enthusiasts might be disappointed). It is a very nice smoke, delivering a fine taste. Truly first class Pipe Used: Hardcastle and Maestro de Paja Age When Smoked: N/A Purchased From: Joshua Ward.

Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note Hemlock (62) 2008-02-09 Medium None Detected Medium to Full Tolerable to Strong Make no mistake, this is a natural blend. The cavendish is non-existent in the taste. This is a VA blend with a dash of perique. The presentation is excellent with its round, mottled medallions and it is worth keeping in the cellar for this alone. It tastes like semi-sweet VA with perique building only when you hit the zone. Smoke this is your VA pipe, not your multi-use or aromatic pipe, and you will be rewarded with a full tobacco taste and no more than a usual virginia nippiness. You can use a single medallion for a small bowl and it smokes fine. A couple or more medallions in a larger bowl is just as well, and will build wonderfully. It has its share of nicotine, so it satisfies. This is an everyday, all day sort of blend that burns to a grey-white ash with little more than a single light. Given the lovely presentation and it’s level of satisfaction, this is my VaPer for now. All the tins in my cellar remain sealed as I enjoy this superb bulk. I am leaving several ounces to cellar in masons– I am sure it will properly ripen further. The recommendation is only for advanced smokers with a penchant for true tobacco flavour and body. Get some and enjoy it. I sure do. Update 02-08-08 After aging for some time, here’s my update. For those that like Escudo or Three Nuns or Capstan, this is comparable after some settling in a jar for a while. Defitinitely an all day VaPer blend with lovely prensentation. Rub the rounds and stuff into the bowl with air-pocket technique for the reward. Yes, it is not a deep VA blend, but most pleasant for those who like brighter, tangy VA flavours– not hot, but certainly spicy & citrusy.

Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note StevieB (2050) 2016-07-01 Medium None Detected Medium to Full Pleasant Peter Stokkebye – Luxury Bullseye Flake. I love this blend! In all fairness, I adored Orlik’s Bull’s Eye and I currently get great pleasure from Paul Olsen’s Dark Pearl and Davidoff Flake Medallions; so I expected to enjoy this one too. As it comes loosely packaged the coins have broken apart slightly, but that presents no problem because they’ll get broken whilst filling anyway! The moisture quantity’s good, so immediate smoking can commence: Straight-away, I adore it! I don’t find the Perique as low as a few of the other reviewers do; I certainly find it less sharp and spicy as it can often be, but I seem to get quite a prominent dark fruitiness from it; of course, good Virginia can give that sort of flavour, but this one has more depth than just a straight Virginia’s fruit quality. As you’d expect, I get the least flavour from the Black Cavendish; but seeing as there’s only a Cavendish centre per coin, I only expected a small amount of it! Once this is lit, which in itself is an easy task, it burns splendidly. The only issue, for me, is if I puff too hard: that’s when I get a slight bite. But, as it’s only subtle, gentle sips remove the problem. Finally, the room-note’s pleasant, and I’d rate the nicotine as being medium. This is immediately going into my favourites list: four stars.

Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note King Weed (228) 2014-07-02 Medium to Strong None Detected Medium Tolerable Its clear in my review of this blend’s reviews that the majority of reviewers have not smoked the blend that is most directly in competion with Stokkebye Luxury Bullseye Flake – Davidoff Flake Medallions. If they had, they would not compare LBF to Escudo nor to Dunhill Deluxe Navy Rolls, as neither has a black cavendish content. I have had the pleasure of smoking all four and, by far, prefer the Davidoff blend to the rest. Don’t get me wrong, they are all good. However, my experience is that the Stokkebye blend smokes the roughest of the four. At the time I acquired a two ounce bag of LBF I also had open a fifty gram tin of FM, making for a natural comparison. Here is how they stack up. There are three things I found different about the two blends. Number one is the very big difference in presentation: FM comes in fifty gram tins and LBF comes only in bulk. When you open a tin of FM you are greeted by a number of uniform spun cut disks beautifully arranged in a spiral. The presentation of LBF in my two ounce bag was very different; a disheveled and raggity conglomeration of whole disks, partial disks, arcs of the virginia/perique outer disk portions and dismembered cavendish cores. Number two difference: I retrieved the whole disks of LBF and laid them out next to the same number of FM disks and compared them. I think the overall size of the disks is the same – it was hard to tell on the LBF disks as they had very ragged edges and appeared bigger than the FM disks. I also noticed a difference in the cavendish cores. On the average, the cores seemed somewhat smaller in the LBF disks and they were different in color and texture. The FM cores were uniformly and solidly black; the LBF cores were varigated in black and various shades of brown with some kind of inclusions in them. Difference number three: although both are cavendish-containing vapers, they smoke somewhat differently. The FM blend smoked smooth and uniformly down the bowl. LBF, on the other hand, was more spicey and tongue-testing. Now, they both have perique in them, so some spiceyness is to be expected and, indeed, was present in both of them. However, I found LBF to be consistently tongue-tingling and, if smoked too hard and fast, would yield tongue bite. I was forced to adjust my smoking rate and style to make up for this characteristic in LBF – something that didn’t happen with FM. So, although I prefer Flake Medallions to Luxurey Bullseye Flake, I still can recommend LBF as a substitute if, and this is a big if, you understand that there is a more refined version of the same type blend out there. The only drawback is that FM costs more, but I think it is worth it.

Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note balkan_boy (49) 2013-11-10 Medium Very Mild Medium to Full Pleasant to Tolerable I’ll give this tobacco 2 stars, although it’s well crafted, and is of good quality. I like VAs a lot, I like Perique also. What I don’t like in this blend, it’s black Cavendish. Black Cavendish puts some darkness in the smoke, that reminds of the danish style aromatic junk. Especially the artificial flavor in them. Spiciness of the Perique is mitigated and darkened by the Black Cavendish. It’s balanced, with the Cavendish, but in a way ruined. Vapers are to be wild and unbalanced, and that’s the beauty of them. This one didn’t achieve my expectations. About packing and burning quality, it’s awesome. Burns perfectly and doesn’t require any effort. I’ve had over a friend who never smoked a pipe in his life, and tried some of this, his first bowl of tobacco ever. He tried a full bowl of this, no relights, no heat at all, he liked it a lot. It was a revelation for him. We drank scotch, and Periquish spicy note really supplemented the drink. I smoke it now with black coffee, (smoked it with tea also) and it fails to astonish, moreover you don’t get rid of the artificial cheapness that is present all the way. This is an excellent smoke for beginners, but not my cup of tea. If you are a beginner, this is top recommended. If you are experienced smoker, don’t go for it, you’ll stay disappointed. 10 people found this review helpful.

Luxury Bullseye Flake smells like fresh cut hay that is still green. There is also a slight note reminiscent of bell pepper. At least that is how it translates to my senses. The rounds are a beautiful presentation and the moisture content couldn’t be more perfect. In the pipe. Luxury Bullseye is very light but extremely pleasant. It is so far the only “all day smoke” that I would keep around in the regular rotation. As I tend toward bolder latakia mixtures and aromatics. This blend also has a very special quality to it. At least to my palate. Whereas it is the only tobacco I have had that actually makes my mouth salivate while smoking it. My palate seems to have some subconscious affinity towards this blend which I don’t mind one bit. It may be because I occasionally get the impression of an almost salty note while smoking it. Which is another aspect I have not yet found in any other pipe tobacco. The room not of LBF is also very pleasant. Lightly sweet and I get the salty note as well. Smells like hay but this time after it has yellowed. With Luxury Bullseye Flake, Peter Stokkebye didn’t only hit the target dead center. The second arrow split the first in two. This is absolutely one of the best overall valued pipe tobaccos out there. Smokes better than many premium blends. Yet can be purchased for a fraction of the price.

I just cracked open some LBE that has two years of age on it now. Using a large Ruthenberg billiard, I carefully pressed one coin of LBE down near the bottom, which also curled up around the bottom sides. I tore another coin into several pieces, carefully, and fitted them around, then finally filled the bowl with shreds for combustion. It took a while to light well, but then I settled in for what can only be called a long, cool smoke with no bite whatsoever. Many of my preferred VA’s and VaPers have a citrusy note, but this remains decidedly grassy. It isn’t off-putting at all, just different. The years in a Mason jar have smoothed the blend and allowed some nice marrying, softening, and maturing. If you take the time to read my original review below, this still isn’t Escudo, but it is a lovely, mild, somewhat complex blend, and could easily be an all-day blend for some. Stokkebye’s quality leaves are well known, and this is no exception. In bulk, it’s reasonable and good quality. I give it 3.25 stars. —————————————————————– The best thing that I can say about Bulls-Eye is that a pound of it is a bargain. It’s isn’t a bad VaPer at all; it’s just not exactly stellar. I feel that the tobaccos are in their infancy in this blend, and having smoked some that has aged for a year or so, there is definitely some improvement with maturation. It can easily be considered an all-day blend; no bite to speak of, easy to pack as coins (in larger bowls) or can be easily rubbed out if desired. Burns well, not overly-hot. This has more Perique than their Luxury Navy flake, and the Black Cav just whispers in and out at times. Very tasty, and very reasonable. Adding a little bit of more matured VA’s really picks this blend up, and for Perique lovers, a bit of blending Perique added would definitely raise the flavor profile for you. For every pound of this that I buy, I’ll purchase at least ten tins of Escudo to cellar. This is certainly no Escudo or Solani 633, but it’s good for every day. Not bad, and the price is definitely a bargain. 9 people found this review helpful.
Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note Darby (15) 2014-04-04 Mild to Medium None Detected Mild to Medium Pleasant to Tolerable Peter Stokkebye – Luxury Bullseye Flake As with many who are used to more fulsome offerings like dark fired Kentucky and matured Virginias, it’s easy to see how a silky, peppery and delicately sweet VaPr like this one can seem a bit hollow and monochromatic at first brush … but with a little patience, and slow sipping, the graceful qualities and inner beauty emerges. As with a wonderfully prepared meal, a good tobacco blend that perfectly fits your tastes is one that soothes and resonates with pleasant memories. For me, smoking this VaPr reminded me of my home brewing days, and the smell of malted barley … lightly kilned pilsner and biscuit malts in particular. For those who’ve never had the pleasure of sticking their head into a large pail of freshly cracked brewing malt, the closest I can get you with words is a combination of fresh bales of sun-dried hay, buttermilk biscuits and sweet light malt extract (similar flavor to the interior of a malted milk ball). A good quality VaPr, smoked slowly, can evoke some of those nuances. The perique is a perfect pairing for the Virginias, and gives their delicate grassy sweetness a long and gently malty/peppery/milky finish that lingers, and leaves you wanting more. To me, it’s like mothers milk. Another thing I found remarkable about this particular VaPr is its outstanding value – as of this writing, PipesandCigars.com is offering the PS-LBF (normally sold in 1.5 lb. bulk) in 1 oz. increments for a mere $2.50, which is an excellent value. Another standout is its easy rubbing qualities, and blendability. The small eye of dark Cavendish in this blend is barely detectable, so anytime I want to add a little nuance of something else, I just rub out a coin or two, add a pinch of something a little stronger, let it stand for a few minutes, and it’s good to go. Highly recommended (3.5 of 4 stars, rounded up to 4 due to its compactness, easy preparation, blendability, and excellent value).

After the first bowl I was a believer. Smooth flavor. I smoke my pipe while walking our dog in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains..This tobacco is wonderful for walking and reflecting.

Not being much of a purist I usually just break one in half and push it into the bowl..well maybe two and push them into the bowl. As has been mentioned, this smokes cool and mellow right down to the bottom of the bowl. No hot aftertaste, and I do not rush right to the sink when I get home to wash the bitterness out of my mouth….An excellent value as even a 4 oz package will last me for a month or so.. “Try it you’l like it..”.

Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note bigterr (21) 2014-01-17 Medium None Detected Medium to Full Pleasant I am very satified with this PS offering, especially considering the price. The coins are exceedingly attractive although the bulk packaging does seem to cause them to be a bit roughed up around the edges. Prep: These coins are very much like a flake so I initially tried the fold and stuff approach, next bowl I rubbed out 1 coin completely and used the other folded as the bottom of the bowl portion. The third bowl I rubbed out the little centers of Cavendish into a pile of crumbs which I strategically sprinkled in between layers consisting of 1/2 of each of the VaPer portion of the coins lightly rubbed out. The smoke: Fold and stuff required frequent relights yet the weed was never harsh – drawback was the sweetness of the cavendish was suddenly almost overwhelming while lasting only briefly. I do not reccommend the Fold N Stuff for this reason and also because the majority of the bowl seemed as a straight VaPer. In addition the perique must be very judicisouly applied as it never stung once. The 1/2 rubbed out 1/2 fold and stuff bowl was better tasting for the first 1/2 and much like the 1st bowl for the last 1/2. The rub out completely and strategic sprinkling of the cavendish was the most enjoyable smoke as the sweetness of the cavendish never was intense, never predictable in its appearance and seemed to go very well with the bursts of perique. This will certainly be my preferred preparation for this fine blend. In all methods of preparation the tobacco burned to a dark grey ash, no dottle present at the bottom of the bowl, no gurgling throughout the bowl. I have purposely refrained from making any direct comparisons to those blends I have stated as similar. The list is presented only so that if you know you like one of those you should give this a try as you will probably like it as well. With the money you will save smoking this after you consume 6oz (and especially if you buy a 1/2 or full pound) you can go ahead and essentially get one of the other blends I’ve listed as a free treat (only of course if you decide you still prefer one of them over PSLBF).

I bought some to try and liked it right away. It has the sweet Virginia with some help from the cavendish. The perique is a spicy thing going on. It is a very pleasant combination of tastes. I rolled and stuffed most of the time. I rubbed it out sometimes too, and I did not notice much difference in the smoking experience. I have smoked about a pound of this so far. This is a friendly flake for new folks to smoke – sweet, tasty, and not picky about drying or processing the flake. I met another guy smoking it one time who said he went to a tobacconist with a pipe his grandfather gave him, and they sold him LBF. He had never seen the need to look for anything else. I have had this aged, and found it more mellow and a slightly different smoke. I don’t know that it was better aged – just more mellow. I don’t smoke this everyday, but I suspect I will always have some around. The price per ounce is very good considering the quality. In terms of rating, I am torn between a 3 and a 4. Everyone should try this at some point, but I don’t think it rises to a 4 for me. 7 people found this review helpful.
Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note LiterarySmoker (136) 2020-10-22 Mild to Medium None Detected Medium Pleasant to Tolerable Let’s get to it. This is the second flake I ever smoked after trying St. Bruno. I was a pretty consistent aromatic smoker when I first started and since I was smoking Stokkebye Highland Whiskey, when my local b&m started carrying this I got about an ounce or two to try and I’m glad I did. For starters this smoke comes in a round flake that’s not intensely pressed, but it does consistently hold its shape. It does look exactly like its name there is a perfect ring of Va/Per with a Bullseye of Cavendish in the center. I prefer to buy a bunch, and then rub it out into a jar. It depends on where you get it either b&m or online, but I have always gotten mine from my b&m at a smokable dryness. When you open the tin you are greeted with a well matured slightly fermented virginia. It is citrusy, woody, sweet, dark fruity, bready. The smell is mouth watering, and I can get a hint of all the ingredients. You can either take a flake fold and stuff, or you can rub it out. For this one I like to get a really nice full bowl, so I do the latter. Lighting up is relatively easy and I use an average amount of relights. The room note on this one is pleasant, but definitely smells of tobacco to your non-smoking friends in my experience. I taste a woody, floral and citrusy Virginia, married to some beautiful dark fruity Perique. It depends on my pipe, but in my bent billiard this blend definitely has more woody notes. I taste no topping, but every now and then, you get a wonderful sweet surprise when you hit a Cavendish Bullseye. I know many people who claim that Escudo is the quintessential VaPer blend, but I think this easily takes that title for me. This is an all day blend that I never fail to have on hand, it’s also one of the first tobaccos I recommend when someone is looking to try a VaPer over an aromatic.

Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note DeathMetal.org (224) 2017-12-18 Mild Mild to Medium Medium Tolerable I can see why people like this. In the bag, it smells like a combination of raisins, honey, fruit, and breakfast cereal. It has some form of sweet topping, and is soft like a sugar cookie. When you fire it up, the Virginia floats to the top with a treacle and grain flavor, then the Perique adds a very mild fruitiness, with the Cavendish rising among them to delivery a creamy fullness. It stays this way for the whole bowl, becoming more honey-like as the Virginias caramelize. On the other hand, it is hard to like this. The Perique has been neutered, coming across mostly as a sugared raisin, and the Virginias have lost most of their taste except the natural light grain and hay flavor. Cavendish, a good friend when used well, might be a bit dominant here, as it looks like a quarter of the leaf by volume. The topping is cloying, with a faint sense of decay to it, and the resulting flavor is alarmingly one-dimensional. Not surprisingly, people swear by this bulk blend and it is easy to see why. Like other Virginia blends, it is a sweet treat to suck on throughout the day. It is nicely balanced with no jagged edges to make it interesting. It is a great blend with which to practice your slow-smoking technique, and when rubbed out it burns easily. Alas, it is also boring, low in Nicotine, and too sugary for this smoker. Comparing it to “Escudo” does not quite make sense. This blend softens the Virginias to a more white bread approach, where other blends intensify the grain flavor and have a more acidic feel instead. If we are to compare this to anything, like Orlik “Golden Sliced” or Newminster “Superior Round Slices,” it would be breakfast cereal. Sweet, and you can smoke it all day long, but the lack of dimension might clobber you at some point with existential desolation.

Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note beaupipe (102) 2008-11-20 Mild to Medium Extremely Mild Extremely Mild (Flat) Pleasant to Tolerable There is no question that this is a lovely looking tobacco–a mottled swirl of golden yellow and brown around a dark chocolate core. It’s downright pleasurable to prepare a pipefull of this stuff. But I have to disagree with most of the high ratings this has received. It’s pretty, but it’s got all the depth of a puddle. Like the rest of the Stokkebye bulk offerings, this comes in at the right price–far less than familiar VaPer touchstones like Escudo, Solani 633, or St. James Woods. The idea, however, that this might function as a replacement for any of them, or even operate as a close-second-value-alternative, is crazy-talk (I say imperiously). The tobacco is just too youthful, too bland, too unexpressive. It’s not a bad tobacco, of course, but I think it’s wonderfully modest price has led to immodest praise. I’ve been trying to figure out how to make the best of the generous quantity I ordered and I’ve found that a dash of more mature Virginia and a dash of Blending Perique can lift the mixture to the level of half-decent VaPer. And though this might satisfy my Scottish half, my baccy-loving half is still a little disppointed. 6 people found this review helpful.

The jar note is very sweet; bright grassy-citrus Virginia’s which are further sweetened by the cavendish. Not a lot of earthiness compared to other Virginia blends, and very little Perique detected. The bright Virginia’s lead the way in the smoke, the Perique adding a little spice. I find this combination can get a little harsh and ashy when the tobacco is fresh, but it mellows out considerably when aged a bit. The cavendish is what really sets this blend apart. No matter how you prepare the coins, you always seem to hit a pocket of the stuff when smoking. This cool sweet spot acts as a palette refresher which further enhances the citrus spice notes of the other components. This is simply a quality blend with a unique presentation and an affordable price. Throw some in the cellar, it’s a four star blend once it rests for a year or two.

The taste is natural tobacco taste, nice and sweet without being overwheelming. The ratio of each leaf is perfect, you can taste the grassy virginia without being overwheelmed by it, while the perique adds a touch of natural sweetness that reminds me of an aromatic (although it is very clear that this isn’t an aromatic). The cavendish is there but barely, it does’t make the smoke overly sweet; it only rounds it up. I highly recomend this blend. If you are new to pipe smoking and are still stuck smoking very sweet aromatic blends then don’t try this just yet because you might find it boring. If you are ready to move to more natural tobacco taste then go right ahead, it won’t let you down. 5 people found this review helpful.

Both my kids wanted to smell the tobacco in the bags and said it smelled like fig newton bars or a box or raisins which I must agree with. First the coins rubbed out with ease and packed nicely in the bowl and after lighting I was treated to billows of wonderful smoke.

The basic flavor profile is much the same as PS LNF, the Cavendish adding its typical sweetness. The main flavors consist of Virginia sweet/citrus/hay and Perique savory/tart notes. The only reason I put any flavoring in the rating is because Black Cavendish is technically speaking a flavored tobacco. It smokes exactly the same no matter what pipe it’s in, or how you pack it. Rub it, fold it, or palm load. Makes no difference. Takes a few lights to get going, but once it’s properly lit it stays lit. I will note that it burns a little hot in the bowl, but that doesn’t translate to hot/bitey smoke.

Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note haredawg (47) 2009-04-08 Medium None Detected Medium to Full Pleasant I bought a box, the 24 ounce box, of this stuff right before the SCHIP kicked and certain retailers were trying not to be sitting on inventory. There are a few reasons I bought that much untasted other than price. One is I like the way Peter Stokkebyes treats tobacco, I?m always willing to try a blend from a name I don?t know or haven?t liked past offerings from, but I prefer sticking Brands I know and have respect for. The other is I like that cut of tobacco. My experiences with the cut have been Escudo, of course, and Davidoff Flake Medallions. Comparing Escudo to LBF seems inevitable, I?m going to say it?s like comparing apples to apples, Granny Smiths to McIntosh, like em both, one?s sweeter, the other tarter. The closer comparison would be Flake Medallions as they both have that Cavendish in the center. Flake medallions taste a bit more refined, I don?t know how to translate flavor into money, but, at least where I shop, the Davidoff is considerably more expensive. For comparison purposes, I can?t imagine anyone enjoying any one of these and not the others. It?s not like the Cavendish is cased, though I can understand someone preferring Escudo for a lack of sweetness. The presentation in the box of LBF is beautiful, rows of coins lined up like in a large change maker. The coins themselves darker flake spun with some lighter flake and rolled around a black center. Mine came almost at a perfect moisture level, ready to smoke with only a little bit of drying out. I have no idea if this is a fluke or not. It?s stupid to mention this, but you have to like a VA/PER to like this, if you?ve tried other VA/PER?s, good ones, honest ones, and didn?t like them, this fancy coin is not going to change your mind. There?s nothing more complex than good Virginian a nice pinch of perique and a dash of unsweetened Cavendish. I?ve said that twice, unsweetened Cavendish, I?m going by my taste buds, if someone wants to challenge this I?ll defer. There?s no reason not to recommend this as highly as Flake Medallions or Escudo, it?s a fine, well behaved, good tasting, good looking flake, solid smoke with occasional bursts of a little sweetness and a little pepper. Burns to a fine white ash with no dottle. I?ve had this for a few days, cellared about half, and have smoked it in a very large Castello sea rock, a group three (or single x) Ashton Canadian, a knock about meerschaum, a midsized radices egg, very consistent in all shapes and sizes. 4 people found this review helpful.

One and a half coins fill a cob, 2 for most of my briar pipes. The smell is a ripe Virginia Perique dream. The taste is the same. The cavendish I feel does a decent job at mellowing out the blend as it is not as harsh or peppery as other va/per blends. Plenty of bright grassy tangy Virginia and a little fruity fermented perique. Moisture content is perfect for aging. If smoking fresh letting it dry out and exposing to air will benefit you. No tongue bite for me, retrohale is mellow for a Virginia and very flavorful and sweet. Grassy, citrus, figgy, slightly sweet, and a little bread. I can appreciate the cavendish center. This is a bulk blend and the price reflects it. It’s a bargain. If you’re a fan of Va/per blends this should be in your cellar for sure. Nothing complex.

Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note hrhf (38) 2020-12-20 Mild to Medium Extremely Mild Medium Pleasant I’m an unusual type of pipe smoker. I smoke heartily, almost compulsively, for a little time. Sometimes months, sometimes years. Then I set the pipes and tobaccos aside for a period. Again, sometimes months, sometimes years. When I initially picked up a pipe, I smoked aromatics. I was particularly fond of straight up black cavendish. From there, I stumbled across English blends. And that was my bread and butter for much of my first period as a pipe smoker. Eventually; I discovered VaPers, and that’s been my wheelhouse pretty much ever since. Which brings us to this review of Luxury Bullseye Flake. I’ve purchased this several times over the years. It’s one of those sleeper blends. It seems unremarkable, but as my tastes evolve, it rises higher and higher on my list. The portion I’m currently smoking was bought in mid 2014, and has been ignored essentially the whole time, as my pipe smoking tendencies went into hibernation again. LBF, aged over 6 years has a smoothness certainly lacking in the new stock. As I near the halfway point in a bowl, I find myself thinking “where have you been all my life?” While early portions of the bowl were relatively unremarkable, patience pays a handsome dividend. Things start sweetening up nicely. Puffs become creamier, more indulgent. Update 12/29/20 I went through the remainder of my oldest LBF stock a few days ago, and have begun to smoke an ounce I picked up in May, 2019 from smokingpipes.com’s B&M establishment. This batch, which has been in my possession a little more than a year and a half, is as dry as the older batch. It’s not so dry it turns to powder when you break it up, but it’s close. Myself, I prefer a little too dry as opposed to a little too moist, so this is pretty much ideal. Anyway, this slightly younger batch is smoking just as nicely as the other. I haven’t smoked a lot of VaPers (I’m working to rectify this), but LBF is currently my favorite. I can smoke it before or after Escudo, and this is just a more pleasant smoke, to my not so sophisticated palate. I close this 12/29 update by upgrading from three stars to four. 3/17/21 — Having run out of my meager aged stash of LBF, I ordered half a pound of new stock. I’ve found it borderline unpleasant to smoke when it’s “fresh”. I feel this is a case of one’s body chemistry not agreeing with a blend. This fresh stuff tastes acidic. So I’m going to let this stuff rest up for a year or so. In the meantime, I’ve discovered some bulk flakes in the same ballpark that are more pleasant and just as flavorful when fresh. Newminster Superior Navy Flake and Sutliff Virginia Slices aren’t exactly the same as LBF. They lack both perique and that great black cav center. But they definitely scratch the same itch, when you’re looking for a sweet Virginia-forward flake. I have no idea whether they age as well as LBF did… but I’m fixing’ to find out. Un-aged LBF, I’d give 2, 2 1/2 stars tops. But it deserves another star or so for what it becomes. This review is a work in progress. Stay tuned.

Well let me tell you, not here in California where an ounce costs $7.50 and out of state will run you around $3.79. This is in no way to criticize the retailor as their hands are tied and have to pass on the state/local taxes and I do buy from them as much as I can. Back to the review, the coins are about the diameter of a half-dollar with the black cavendish in the middle.

At one time, Twist was my favorite, then Navy and now Bullseye. I think that the progression is a reflection of both my age and smoking habits. The older you get, the less flavor things seem to have, so stronger tasting things are more desirable. Of the three PS Luxury Flakes, Bullseye is definitely the strongest tasting. And then there’s the fact that, a few years ago, I started to smoke cigars again after a forty year hiatus. Given its strong flavor, LBF has a cigar-like quality to it, although it doesn’t taste like cigar leaf. What is does taste like is a mature tobacco VaPer. The Virginias have lots of dark fruit and molasses richness, and the Perique is of the raisin-fig-plum type, rather than the spicy type. I don’t really taste the cavendish, although it may be part of the reason the tobacco tastes as rich as it does. If you like VaPers and if your tastes run more to the dark fruit than the grassy Virginias, I think you will like PS LBF.

This blend features a healthy fix of the virginia summer grass / hay taste. The perique adds some depth, not much spice. The blend overall is more grainy sweet than spicy. The small cavendish center is flavored with something resembling honey, or sugar water. This provides a honey – like sweetness that’s not over the top, across most of the smoke that I feel works well with the grass / hay thing going on all over the place. Formerly I would rub the coins out fully but lately I’ve been using the fold and stuff method. These coins, although I’ve never received them wet, do benefit from maybe an hour or two of open air drying before loading. Too moist or too tightly packed leads to multiple re-lights, which degrades the taste somewhat, not to mention the aggravation factor. Once you find your technique and get in the groove, these coins are about the ultimate summertime smoke in my opinion. 3 people found this review helpful.

The idea is identical to both the davidoff and the Olson blends in that sense. The Perique is hardly noticeable. And its a very tasty and somewhat uncomplicated smoke.

One extremely large issue… It bites my tongue like a rabid wolverine. Has a wonderful soft sweetness to it that I love on both the pre-light draw, and throughout the smoke. Something about it lights my tongue on fire – and not in a good way. Maybe it is the perique? I have smoked other blends with a “dash” or a “touch” with only a delightful spicy sensation at most. I tried to soften it with some latakia – but to no avail. Maybe it’s too wet? I have tried drying for various lengths of time. Maybe it’s too young? I won’t dump it just yet and will come back to it to see what happens after a while. For now… It is not something that I’ll reach for anytime soon. UPDATE – 4/7/2018 I have revisited this blend with a fresh purchase of 2 ozs from my local brick and mortar. My technique has improved greatly. Turns out I was likely just smoking way too fast and the baccy was way too wet. Sweet. Spicy. Some grassy notes. Will pick up some bulk for aging and dip into this from time to time. I dig this. Careful, deliberate puffing helps me avoid any bite that may still occur. Nicotine is calming and somewhere in the middle of mild to medium.

At light up, a slightly sweetish topping is evident. The red VAs are exceptionally mild and very clean tasting. The perique content is quite light but noticeable while the intermittent clods of black cavendish add a bit of fullness. Soft and ingratiating, Bullseye Flake is a flavorsome and well-priced VA/Per. Its mildness makes it a good choice for all-day puffing. This goes best in narrow gauge chambers. 3 people found this review helpful.

This is a very good Virginia/perique indeed, it does not bite at all if it is smoked properly, the flavor is natural and delicious.

Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note zulujerk (146) 2008-08-28 Medium None Detected Medium to Full Tolerable When I smoke a bowl of this blend, I often wonder exactly what Stokkebye hoped to accomplish when putting it together. I imagine it was created in some alternate universe, where Escudo really managed to go out of production. The factory was shut down, the presses carted away. Nostalgia brought fans of the deceased together to demand a worthy copy of that legendary blend. One manufacturer hastily put out a Vaper in loose cut form, proudly proclaiming an exact match. Tins were churned out fast to meet an insatiable demand. Yet the fans balked at this opportunism and so arranged a boycott to register their dissatisfaction. Another blender decided that a long and wide, single wrapped flake, with a bit of Latakia, would satisfy the rank and file, and win converts as a slight crossover blend. But the people would have none of it. Peter Stokkebye, sensing opportunity, rose to the occasion, releasing this alternative. It was just like Escudo, but different in minor details…a tribute to the former, but original in its own right. Instead of the hard, compacted coins, Luxury Bullseye Flake offered a spin slightly less wound up, looser around the edges. The chosen Virginias sweet, the Perique in similar proportion to the vaunted prototype. Only, in filtering the words of the crowd, they decided to tone the strength down just a little. Someone suggested a sweet center to top it off, and so the Cavendish bullseye was added as a mark of novelty. Curious now, fans debated whether one could actually discern this new addition in a blind test, even before the new product could find its way into a shop. In remembering this, a man remarked to his son that the people rejoiced, and thanked Peter Stokkebye for their effort–an homage to a great blend, gone but not forgotten. “In celebration of their new treat,” he said, “smokers gathered together on the interwebs, the popular slogan they repeated, “An unparalleled smoking experience.”” 3 people found this review helpful.

Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note krg1000 (183) 2008-02-05 Medium Mild to Medium Medium to Full Pleasant This is my first foray into the Va/Per arena and I am very impressed with this blend. The taste is great with more of a definite nicotine presence than I am used to. I have been smoking aromatics almost entirely since getting into this money-sucking habit. I smoke outside at home and work, so the room note being marked as “pleasant” is from smoking this blend outside only at this point. I haven’t been anywhere inside with this one yet.The coins are very impressive to look at and smell great in the bag. I can honestly say that I have tried, but can’t get this blend to even come close to any form of tongue biting. I can see myself getting lots more of this fine PS blend in the days ahead. 3 p

Sweet, tasty VA/Per By: Stephen E. Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk I first purchased a couple ounces of bullseye flake 6 months ago from a local smoke shop, and after smoking a couple bowls, I stored the remainder in a pint Ball jar and left it in my cellar to age. Smoked fresh it was not bad at all, but it lacked… Read More distinction from the pack. Recently I decided to give it another try, and I am very impressed. My 2 ounces came very moist, and I stored it that way because it seems to help facilitate plume/bloom (maybe I’m flat out wrong here but that’s my observation), but after cracking the seal I spread out all my coins to dry. It took several hours, and eventually I thoroughly rubbed out my coins and evenly sprinkled the cavendish core over my neat pile. Even after such thorough drying I still let it sit out for 10 or 15 minutes before packing my pipe. I must say that it is worth the preparation. Upon first light I get rich dark VA notes of bread and hay, with an underlying sweetness that is just right and never too much. The perique lends a dark fruity flavor but is very mild tempered for most of the experience and there is virtually no resulting spice until the lastime quarter bowl. I’ve smoked a lot of elizabethan mixture recently so it’s hard not to draw some parallels. When aged, both give that lovely, deep, rich red Virginia flavor I love. PS bullseye adds an extra dimension of added sweetness, and from what I can tell that sweetness only continues to deepen with age. Any inherent spiciness mellows with minimal age, and I really couldn’t pinpoint any spicy qualities until the tail end of the bowl, at which point there was moderate spiciness which I quite enjoy. I end up dumping the last little bit of tobacco as it can get slightly harsh at the very very end, but the smoke is so cost friendly and delicious I don’t even care. Requires very few relights when dried to the right moisture content. Nicotine level is on the mild side for me, but maybe mild medium. I will be cellaring at least a pound in the near future, as well as sampling their other offerings as so far this is the only blend I have tried of theirs. Read Less

A Very Pleasing Bulk Va/Per. By: AT Valleau Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk Wow! I am really pleased and surprised at how good this bulk blend is! It’s really delicious. My favorite blends these days are Va/Pers and straight Virginias (although I like many burley blends, too). These bulleye coins present very well, and they … Read More are easy to load into the bowl. As with regular flake tobacco, these bullseye flakes can be prepped several ways for loading: “fold & stuff”, rubbed out, maybe even chopped up. Different methods do affect how the tobacco smokes and even how it tastes. I prefer a type of fold & stuff method where I roll up the coin into a semi-loose ball then stuff the ball into the bowl. Keep in mind that these coins each have a core of black cavendish, which provides a sweet touch to the smoke. If you fully rub out the coins, or chop them up, the cavendish will be more evenly distributed throughout the bowl of tobacco and the sweet flavor it imparts will also be more even. If you use a fold & stuff method, as I do, the sweetness from the cavendish will sort of “pop” in the mix from time to time, unexpectedly, as the bits of cavendish are encountered irregularly. I like these sweet surprises! No matter how I prepared this blend, it lit easily, had a consistent burn with few re-lights, and smoked pretty well no matter what pipe I used. However, it smoked best in my Rattray’s “Judge” poker. It has a deep, narrow bowl, which seems well-suited for flakes. The longest continuous smoke I think I’ve ever had in nearly 40 years of pipe smoking was with this blend in my large “tulip” meerschaum by H. Ege. This is my largest pipe with a very deep, relatively narrow bowl. The bowl is at least 2 inches deep, if not a bit more. I used a little over 4 coins, packed fairly firmly. The smoke lasted 1 hour and 40 minutes! I timed it. And this blend seemed to get better and better as the bowl progressed. The only problem I encountered was a little difficulty getting the tobacco to burn throughly at the very bottom of my meerschaum’s bowl. I don’t usually have such problems with this pipe. And this wasn’t a problem at all in the Judge. It may that this tobacco is a bit more moist than it seems. I filled the meerschaum before I went to bed and smoked the bowlful the next morning and there was no problem. So, this blend may need a little drying time. Even so, and especially given the price point, I don’t see how you can go wrong with this blend. By the way, I’ve cellared about 3 ounces of this to age it as long as I can (IF I can keep my hands off of it!). I’ll let you know how it ages – eventually. Very highly recommended! Read Less

(Untitled) By: Sparky Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk A platter that matters. These coins go down like water. Fresh mown hay virginia + stewed fruit perique + sugary cavendish. More grainy sweet than spicy. It’s easy to see why this one makes the top ten consistently.

I have finally found my favorite tobacco! By: Novocaine76 Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk I tried this for the first time in my brand new Radice Silk Cut Bent Billiard Pipe that I ordered at the same time.Upon opening the ziplock bag this came in, I detected a fresh cut hay, figgy/raisin-y note with a subtle undertone of caramel and maybe… Read More a hint of cocoa. I had previously ordered the PS Luxury Twist Flake from another online retailer and was floored by how delicious it was so, I knew that I had to give the Bullseye Flake a try. I am so happy that I did! When I opened my package from you guys, the first thing that I noticed about this tobacco is just how dark it was but, that’s not a huge deal to me. What I knew of this tobacco is that it is a VaPer with a core of black cavendish. I knew that I liked VaPers because I have tried 2 before and I fell in love with them. Let me just say that the black cavendish makes a fair bit of difference when added to a VaPer blend. This is such a smooth, cool, easy and longs lasting smoke. It takes 3 coins fully rubbed out to fill the hefty bowl of my new Radice! It is a 1 3/4 hour smoke and the most satisfying tobacco I have ever had. Bullseye Flake has de-throned Capstan Blue for me. Bullseye Flake is my favorite and the Luxury Twist Flake is a very close second. I say if you’re on the dense about trying this, just go ahead and pull the trigger on it because I don’t think you will regret it one bit. This is my favorite tobacco and I wish I had tried VaPers a lot sooner but, I thought that it would be too spicy but they aren’t to me. The black cavendish gives the Virginia and perique tobaccos in this an enormous depth of flavor that I’m sure those that try this will very much appreciate. I ordered 8 ounces when I ordered my pipe and another 8 ounces earlier this week because I don’t want to run out! Read Less

YESSSSSS!!!! By: Brad B. Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk I’m not going to tell you that I taste BBQ or Brown Sugar (because I don’t). What I WILL tell you is that this is, by far, one of the very BEST tobaccos I’ve EVER put in my pipe. It is sweet, but maintains the freshness that you get from the “… Read More tin” note, and does so from beginning to end. I’ve tried other VaPers, and don’t really care for them, but this is amazing stuff. You will definitely get that pepper-like sensation from the Perique, but that seems to become more subdued once the blend has had a few exposures to air due to opening the bag. The grassy or hay type of smell is very fresh and is like laying down in a field of golden grass on a sunny day. The freshness of the Virginias in this blend are wonderful and are a “young” type, rather than an aged or “darker” variety. I break up the coins so that I get everything blended rather than have a sudden burst of Cavandish, since this coin cut puts the Cavandish smack dab in the middle. The moisture of the coins are perfect. It is rare to find a tobacco that is so well balanced and blended, but this is one that stands out WAY above the majority. Do yourself a flavor and order some!

Great blend By: JJpiper Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk Great tasting tobacco. Sweet, fruity notes are met by undertones of earth and pepper. Fairly rich and creamy. Even leaves a great aftertaste. Packs really well too. Considering the price, one of my favorites.
Pack upside down! By: David F. Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk My experience of this tobacco depends on how it is stuffed into one’s pipe – it’s possible to get two completely different experiences. When I first received my order I folded a coin into quarters and then inserted into my pipe with the center of th… Read More e coin first – so the edges of the coin were in effect sticking upwards towards the top of the bowl. This also meant (with hindsight) that all of the center Cavendish part of the coin went to the bottom of the bowl and would be the last part smoked. Big mistake. This produced a smoke heavy with Perique and was too peppery for my taste. The Perique drowned everything else and was too much for me to smoke. I put aside my 4oz delivery, disappointed. A few days later I tried again, this time with the idea of putting the folded coin ‘edges first’ into my pipe, with the center of the coin pointing upwards. This meant that the center Cavendish became the FIRST part of the smoke. This produced a completely different smoking experience – nice Virginia tastes and smells, a little creamy, hay and manure. Young Virginia, as others have noted, but pleasant nonetheless, and with quite a lot of deep flavor. As I smoked my bowl the Perique lower down then joined in the experience but was now blended with the Virginias and Cavendish giving a much more balanced and enjoyable smoke, much nearer to the Escudo experience. Now I sat there thinking “hey – this is a nice smoke, I might buy more of this”, whereas after my first attempt I certainly wouldn’t have ordered more. So – an interesting experience. Can be a very nice smoke, very satisfying, and very close to Escudo, but only if packed in a certain way. I’m glad I discovered the difference. Many people will be buying this hoping that it’s ‘as good as Escudo for half the price’. No, it’s not Escudo, as many others have noted. It’s close, if packed ‘upside down’, but it’s three stars whereas Escudo is a clear four. I’m glad I tried this tobacco. I’ll be able to enjoy the rest of my order using the ‘upside down’ packing method. But it’s also made me realise just how exceptionally good Escudo is, and I’d rather pay extra money and have the real thing. Read Less

And in this case, I’m happy to be part of the crowd. I don’t especially care for it when it’s fresh from the warehouse.

I currently have a couple of pounds socked away, and I’ll definitely be buying more down the road. Every pipe smoker worth his salt should at least try this. If you don’t like it, you may be doing something wrong… smoking it too fast, too wet, too dry… something. Because this is a top 10 VaPer, if not top five. Read Less
not quite expressive for Virginia / Pericue By: Vladimir Zeev Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk I smoked this mixture for a very long time and have not yet described it. The smell from the package is very pleasant and rich. The coins are quite large, with a diameter of about 3.5 cm (1.3 inches). Three coins are enough to fill a size 4 (Dunhill)… Read More bowl. Slightly moist and does require much drying before smoking. I used two methods of filling the bowl (whole coins rolled into a roll and fluffed coins). The combustion quality of the tobacco in the bowl was not affected. Due to the addition of the Black Cavendish, the share of Virginia and Perique decreased. Therefore, for my taste, the mixture is not quite expressive for Virginia / Pericue. I think smoking this mixture will be good when you do not expect a pleasant taste from pipe tobacco, and smoking a pipe is just a background for doing something else. This tobacco is good but won’t take a place on my list of favorites. Read Less

A definite hit By: BobintheBurg Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk This is one of the greats in terms of VaPers. Everything is there: The sweet, grassy Virginias, the fruity and peppery Perique, and a little extra sweetness from the unflavored black Cavendish. Is it as good as Escudo? In my opinion, no. However, its… Read More price point and availability in bulk are two big considerations in its favor. The coins are very easy to rub out, but to be honest, I usually just ball a couple rounds up and throw them in a pipe. LBF usually comes dry enough to smoke right out of the bag, while Escudo is usually a bit damp when I open the tin. I usually prefer my tobacco on the drier side and LBF is usually perfect. I just have to open the bag and toss it in a mason jar. It’s ready to go at a moment’s notice. LBF has a pretty decent nic hit and has a lot of flavor for such a simple blend. Luxury Bullseye Flake is a very solid tobacco and stands on its own as a top notch VaPer. Some have said that LBF is not a true VaPer because of the inclusion of the black cavendish in the center. I think that this is just splitting hairs. It behaves like a VaPer and tastes like a VaPer. I’m gonna call it like I see it: Great tobacco. Read Less

Perhaps a little dark fruit, but that is often caught in the notes of sweet Black Cavendish. BC takes the cake with a molasses/brown sugar aftertaste that lingers in the back of my throat, sometimes for hours. The blend never burns hot, even in windy conditions, and it keeps a true light almost devotedly. The burn is consistent, if your light is good, all the way to the bottom of the bowl. Little dottle remains among the small pile of white ash in the bottom. Very little moisture, too, even though I am a wet smoker, generally. Finally, the blend has not, as yet, ghosted my pipes–even the one I have dedicated almost exclusively to this blend. As an aside, I usually smoked this blend in a pipe with a wider and shallower bowl. All in all, I highly recommend this blend to any and all pipe smokers. It is generous to a beginner, will captivate an expert, and will charm an aromaticon or an Englishman. Cheers to all! Read Less

Mellow and satisfying By: Zohar Z. Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk In the age of 1.5y, these coins produce a nice thick smoke like a choo-choo train. Light and grassy, like every VA review ever with a hint of citrus, its not a brainer. The Black cavendish adds some sweetness to the VA as well to the thickness of the… Read More smoke.

Crumple fluff By: Nick G Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk Seemed to be a slow burner which is about right as the perique came through stronger than the Virginia for me. The cavendish crumbles to pieces so you have to be careful and a bit creative to distribute it evenly throughout the bowl. All said, a plea… Read More sant smoke that pairs well with leggy reds and stout beers. I am going to let it mellow in the mason for a few months and see what happens. Read Less
I’ll call, and raise you $100! By: Denj777 Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk Everything that is said good about these little Casino Coins are all true. But please don’t buy any, because that would mean the supply would be in jeopardy 🙁 😀
Spicy By: Whaley Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk I love these spicy little coins. It’s just great
Well worth it By: Whaley Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk This is just a well rounded great tobacco.
Wow! Right on the money! By: Eric K. Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk I was pleasantly surprised the first time I packed one of these coins in my pipe and lit up. I really enjoy the naturally sweet (but not overly sweet) taste of this tobacco. Believe the hype. I highly recommend.
Worth A Shot “Bullseye” By: Kevin B. Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk Hay-like taste, somewhat musty when new..Let age a few months and it gets better, develops a sweeter grassy taste. A great all day smoke, no bite and good taste from start to finish.
OK, But not convinced By: Ingo Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk I have read a lot of this tobacco and was really excited when i opened it. Honestly, i was disappointed when i smelled it. Maybe too much Perique for me, it irratetes the lining of mouth. There is a mild sweetness, sure. But i dont think it is a grea… Read More t tobacco.

Really good smoke By: Sean V. Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk I have enjoyed this folded and stuffed as well as rubbed out. bother methods have produced a good smoke. Smooth Virginia’s and a touch of perique. The Black cavendish in the centre gives a nice cool and creamy smoke.
멋진 조합을 이룬 연초이다 By: sachimo Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk 블랙카벤디쉬가 페릭과 버지니아의 블랜딩이 잘되게끔하는 연초인데 이 세조합이 너무환상적이다. 이보다 멋진 조합은 없다고 본다. 처음에는 버지니아의 달달함이 앞서지만 곧따라오는 페릭의 청양고추같은 매콤함이 올라오자마자 사라지면서 느껴지는 달달함이 또한번의 쾌락을 느끼게 해준다.거기다 불까지 잘붙는다.그러니 더할나위없이 즐길수있는 연초임은 틀림없다. 페릭을 처음느끼는 분들이라면 꼭 경험해보라.적절하게 조합된 연초의 맛을 아주 맛나게 느낄수있으… Read More 리라 봅니다.

Beautiful coins By: Edwin C. Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk Being a VA/Per smoker, the added touch of black Cavendish was a nice add to this blend. Smokes true to a Va/Per with a little bit of a cavindish pop. I bounce between this and the Flake – both rewarding smokeable tobacco.
Incredibly Good. By: March Hare Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk This large silver dollar size coin consists of a very, very good Virginia that is slightly interwoven with soft Perique. The Perique must be aged by Stokkebye, because it is soft and non threatening. The Perique seems to really be in a mellow good re… Read More lationship with the Virginia, because both are just right.The Cavendish is similar to Lane BCA, but only a smidgen right in the center. These three tobaccos together make for a very remarkably good pipe smoke. As good as this blend is straight from the ups truck,aging this tobacco will only bring greatness. The aroma is pleasant and there is a good dose of nicotine. Read Less
Quite Rich By: Ken B. Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk I love the smell of this tobacco in the tin. It’s rich, and reminds me of wet leather. And let’s face it, rubbing out the coins makes that part of the ritual much more enjoyable. I find the flavor to be full, but not necessarily strong. However, af… Read More ter many ounces it seems it suits me better to smoke this in a smaller bowl. That is to say a little goes a long way. I found it to be less than satisfying towards the end of a large poker bowlful. Maybe it was from trying to enjoy too much of a good thing, or that the flavors that had accumulated thanged the flavor from rich and subtly sweet towards slightly but unpleasantly bitter. That is not to say my technique is blameless, but I try to be aware of these factors when making mental notes during the smoke and later when writing some review such as this. Overall, I enjoy this tobacco very much, and look forward to it as a treat now and again. Read Less
Pretty Good By: Joshua L. Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk This flake smokes very well and the bit of sweet cavendish in the middle is lovely.
Good perique tabacco. By: Eunrae J. Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk 버지니아의 질도 좋고 페릭의 조화도 좋다. 그러나 카벤디시가 텁텁함을 많이 준다. 개인취향이 텁텁함을 싫어해서 별로였다. 가격대비 훌륭함.

The bullseye catch you By: Ayax g. Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk It is now considered a classic and quite frankly it is easy to understand why.

It is a very fragrant smoke from the beginning to the end and delivers different tonalities, from the grassy substance to the natural honey while retaining the strength from virginias and never becoming a candy. The very fresh sensation of the smoke only gets the subtle spicy note from perique in the retrohale and burley is just there as an spectator, adding more round note than flavour configuration. Best of all, it has zero bite, in the tongue its a dry, grassy and little pungent taste. Truly delicious. One of my favourite virginia blends. By the way, just contemplating the coins is mesmerizing.

I like it, I think? By: nmandrus Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk This is my first foray into coins and perique and I’m not sure if either are my current favorite.

Passable, but not great. By: Ease Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk I really wanted to love this one, but I find its just not as good as the other two in the luxury flake line.

Great stuff! By: M. Scott Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk Update: 3-2-2021 Almost six years of aging this tobacco in mason jars has transformed it into an almost black, sweet, topshelf smoke.

The hay and grassy notes of the Virginias are there as well as the natural fruit like flavors of raisins or figs. There’s a bit of peppery flavor from the Perique. It comes pretty close to the right moisture level. Loads and lights well. It’s a nice smooth even cool burning blend. Doesn’t give any tongue bite. I’d say it’s a medium to strong blend as far as the nicotine goes. If you’re a nic wimp like myself make sure you’ve snacked on something before firing up a bowl. Overall a great blend that’s very affordable. Read Less

Pretty good By: Jonathan L. Product: Peter Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bullseye Flake Bulk I’ve found this smoked best folded and stuffed for the most flavourful experience. Sweet and sour, smooth smoke.

Stokkebye PS403 Luxury Bulls Eye Flake, sold by Oz
3 Peter Stokkebye Luxury Bullseye Flake Posted by Joyce on Sep 12th 2019
Peter Stokkebye Luxury Bullseye Flake has a nice mix of flavour of leather and hay and a very field flavour like late Summer or early Fall. The problem is the bulleye of the cavendish never comes up to play and is in a very wispy form. The perique can be tasted but it buries the cavendish. The other problem is these rounds just don’t burn well. I have to usually put some other tobacco on top to get these rounds to burn. The flavour is good and unique and I recommend having some of this on the side but it is not my favourite smoke. Some say this is Escudo but when I hear this I have to wonder if they ever smoked Escudo back in the 90’s – these blends are very different. I recommend this blend and give it 3.7 on a scale of 5
Stokkebye Luxury Bulls Eye Flake (1oz)
Stokkebye Luxury Bulls Eye Flake (1oz) – Ah, the classic coin! Ripe Virginias and spicy Perique are blended and then rolled around a core of mellow Black Cavendish in Bulls Eye Flake, which really does have an eye-catching appearance. With this blend you get the best of every tobacco: a background sweetness from the Cav, just a hint of fresh pepper from the lightly applied Perique, and sweet hay, citrus, and a bit of raisin from the VAs. We agree with the masters at Stokkebye – lightly rub out the coin and don’t pack it too densely into your pipe for best enjoyment.
