No. 15

Peter Heinrichs No. 15 is a hand-rubbed slice tobacco in the English mixture tradition. Per the maker's account, Louisiana Perique and Oriental leaves are enriched with pitch-black Latakia; the blend is hand-rubbed and then cut into 2.1-millimeter slices.

The high proportion of Latakia determines the blend's character; the Oriental adds dry spice, while Perique adds a sharpness recalling plum and pepper. Flavor intensity sits at the top band, and nicotine is pronounced too. It is a record aimed at experienced smokers familiar with heavy Latakia structures and pressed slices.
