G.L. Pease Sextant (2025) is a classic English blend — Virginias and Orientals married to smoky Latakia from G.L. Pease, partially rubbed-out flakes that pack easily while still burning slow and cool.
Kentucky, Latakia, Oriental/Turkish, Virginia make up the leaf. Dark-fired Kentucky brings a bold, smoky, savory depth. Latakia, a fire-cured Oriental leaf, brings the smoky, incense-like campfire character that defines English and Balkan blends. Oriental (Turkish) leaf contributes dry, sour-sweet spice and a herbal, aromatic edge. Virginia tobacco lends a natural grassy, hay-like sweetness and gentle citrus tang that deepens with age.
