Scaferlati Caporal Rouge

Scaferlati Caporal is one of the most common names in French pipe tobacco tradition. Its name is traced to the Napoleonic era's soldier tobacco rations; it was among the country's best-selling tobaccos for many years. The brand belongs to Mac Baren today. The Rouge release's body is built from Virginia and Kentucky leaves; Paraguayan leaf, characteristic of French tobaccos, adds a distinctive trace to the character. No flavoring is used, and the air-cured, fermented leaves give the well-known strong profile.

The cut is loose and fine, packing easily into a pipe; on the other hand, since moisture is low, care is needed while packing. The taste moves between herbal and woody tones, with a smoky base underneath. Nicotine load is high. Aimed at experienced smokers seeking unflavored, strong, traditional European tobaccos.
