Tasting Notes

Black Parrot combines the sweet, tangy richness of well-aged Virginias with the dark fruit and peppery spice of Perique, pressed together into firm flakes that can be rubbed out or folded. The smoke is cool, slow-burning, and satisfying, developing flavours of raisin, fig, bread, and gentle spice as the bowl progresses. It is bold enough for the seasoned smoker, yet balanced enough for those discovering Va/Pers.
