Description

Not dry and strong like the tobacco Holmes kept in the toe of a Persian slipper but more like the slipper itself?soft and comfortable! This is a blend in the Scottish tradition which leans toward the Oriental. Izmir Turkish, Green River Black, Crumb-Cut Burley, Latakia, a touch of Perique and a bit of Carolina ribbon for a nutty sweetness.

    Well balanced most enjoyable smoke

    Posted by Ace Four on May 6th 2022

    This is a well balanced oriental blend no one component dominates the blend. I smoke a lot of English blends early in my pipe life and rarely now. I don't really notice the latakia in this blend. Easily an all day smoke. I can go on about this flavor or that but really, just try it, you will not be disappointed even if you are a straight Virginia snob.

    Not What I Expected

    Posted by David Mandelstamm on Jan 11th 2022

    I was expecting this to be just another latakia blend. But it's really something else... in a good way! Yes, latakia is present, but Persian Slipper is a smooth flavorful easygoing oriental-forward blend. Only drawback (minor) is that it's hard to light. (Fresh out of the bag, it needs just a bit of drying time.)

    Smooth

    Very smooth blend. I like the nutty aromas and a certain hint of coffee.

    If you like Balkans…

    Posted by William Lee on Nov 19th 2021

    …buy all the Persian Slipper you can afford. So very good. So very smokable - any time, all the time - from the top to the bottom of the bowl. I won’t go into a this-component-does-this-that-component-does-that review. JimInks has that very well covered. What I will say is that all the components are doing what they’re supposed to do very well indeed. Get some and, after you smoke it, don’t thank me. Thank the folks at WCC for this transcendent blend.

    Persian Slipper

    My search for the best Balkan has been found. Persian Slipper is a smooth cool burning all day smoke. Anyone who enjoys oriental forward blends will not be disappointed with this tobacco.

    Persian Slipper

    Posted by Bryan Chapman on Aug 6th 2021

    I'm fairly new to a pipe, so take it for what it's worth. I bought Persian and Glass Slippers and tried them both out with my brother. I very much enjoyed the Persian. My brother preferred the Glass. Normally, I prefer English blends and he does not, and I think that makes sense here, as I got a very English vibe from the Persian even though I am not used to burley in them. It has some good flavor to it, has good smoke. I can definitely see this becoming a daily blend.

    Very Well Balanced Blend

    Posted by Russ H. on Apr 8th 2021

    This is a very well balanced blend that I have come to really enjoy. It's never boring, and does not overwhelm the palate. This one is a home run blend for me.
