When I want a mild Va/Per blend, this is what I reach for. The cut is very good for packing, lights easily and stays lit with rarely a relight needed.
The Virginia comes through nice and mild with citrus/hay and the perique with its peppery type flavor is also present but not in an overpowering way at all. I find the proportions in the blend is well balanced.
I consider it a mild smoke in all areas.
I have heard from others they don't find the room note offensive but not an "oh that smells good" either.
Any type of pipe smokes this well, I prefer to smoke it in either an Author or Prince shape.
There are other Va/Per out there with more pronounced flavors from both the Va and the perique sides.
EM is a good blend to start with for a Va/Per.
On my scale it is a "cellar it" and have enough "just in case" it does disappear from the market as is projected in early 2018 at the time of this review.
