Robert McConnell Black Parrot

Black Parrot is an unflavored Virginia-Perique blend made by pressing aged Virginia leaf together with Perique and slicing it into tight flakes. The slices can be rubbed out for packing or folded in whole, the latter method slowing the burn further. In the smoke, Virginia's sweet, tangy structure runs alongside Perique's dark fruit and pepper spice; as the bowl progresses, notes of raisin, fig, and bread become more pronounced. It burns cool and slow, offering medium fullness.
