If you're looking for a great VaPer straight from the tin, you can’t go wrong with something like Halflinger's or Penzance. They’re smooth and balanced; the tin note is already a treat before you even light up. Both have a nice blend of Virginia’s sweetness with that peppery kick from the Perique, making them an enjoyable experience right from the start. If you haven’t tried them yet, definitely give them a go! Another option I’ve been enjoying lately is Fryd’s VaPer. It has a good balance and is not too heavy on the Perique, so it’s really approachable. You can grab it at Fryd Carts - - https://fryd.us.com . It’s worth checking out, especially if you like a mild but flavorful smoke!
Penzance? It’s an English blend.

this sucker. favorite so far and smokes like a dream out of the tin. Much more on the Va side but I of prefer that.
I've considered buying this and the aged burley, but it seems that they fiddled with these blends a couple years ago, to their detriment, so I have refrained - I still grieve for the old Three Nuns, and this sounds like a similar downgrade. Is the new version still worth it?

Several people have suggested Peterson Deluxe Navy Rolls and one person suggested Davidoff Flake Medallions. I agree with both those suggestions. Flake Medallions are cheaper than DNR, however, and they have a little core of black cavendish that makes the smoke very mild and mellow and almost never bitey. They're great folded right out of the tin, very accessible and a very good place to start your VaPer journey.

I don't know. It's been a while. Vaper for me are not my favorite type. I smoke it for sure but it's not one of the genres I have to have at all times. But I remember it being very forgiving and easy to smoke and also one of those tobacco forward blends that people love the room note of.
