Seattle Pipe Club Plum Pudding Bourbon Barrel Aged

Plum Pudding Bourbon Barrel Aged is a version of the brand's Balkan blend prepared by aging it in a bourbon barrel. The recipe carries the same leaves as the main record: Latakia, Oriental, Virginia, Perique, and black cavendish. The distinction comes from the maturation period the blend undergoes in a bourbon barrel before tinning. The time spent in the barrel adds a layer of oak, vanilla, and sweet-spirit echo to the smoky body; this layer is not a flavoring applied afterward but a trace picked up through contact. The result is a Balkan record that is rounder and more distinctly sweet than the main version.
