My apologies if this has already been raised as a topic, but can anyone tell me where I might purchase some Perique tobacco leaves ?

http://www.smokingpipes.com/tobacco/by-maker/cornell-diehl/bulk/moreinfo.cfm?product\\_id=79416 You can get perique here, at 27 bucks a pound you won’t find it cheaper than that. If you wanted whole leaf perique thats just not possible because of the way perique is made.

Thankyou for this n9inchnails.

Does anyone have a source in the UK ?

Black swan shoppe in scarborough do it:

Thank you Talljim.

Be interesting to see what snuff can be made from some.

I was thinking along the same lines myself.

It would be good to compare our endeavours !

Presumably one would be able to acquire some direct from G H.

First job after the festivities.

Have tried N Rustica with reasonable success, but will be interesting to see if Perique has better flavour.

Anon !

As a Scarborough resident, I’ll get it at the black swan shoppe! But I intend to have a go. Also, support the independent tobacconists!

I’ve actually had some wholeleaf perique. It was from a group buy direct from from Percy Martin. Not available anymore, I think.

I tried to grind it to snuff, but i remember it didn’t work so well. Perhaps it wasn’t dry enough.
