.Having had some time to ponder the matter, I'm guessing a portion of the flavoring added to Royal Yacht may be the juice from Perique barrels. Royal Yacht certainly tastes like a VaPer even though there's not supposed to be any Perique in it, and it gives me a sore throat in the same manner that a VaPer would, so I'm guessing Dunhill (and now Peterson) found a clever way to put the juice from their Perique barrels to use as a flavoring element in Royal Yacht. I could be wrong, but that's the best explanation I've got for why it tastes like a VaPer and my body is reacting to it like it's a VaPer even though it should be a pure Virginia.

Posts like this are why I read nearly everything in this insanely long thread. Your theory would explain why nearly no one (certainly not home blenders) have been able to reproduce RY successfully, as we don’t have access to actual perique juice. It would be quite interesting to see if you’re right, but we’ll likely never know due to trade secrets…

Its latakia sample day. Moving on to some Dan Pipe London Blend 1000. Im just getting started but I could use a little more lat...maybe. Time will tell. It is nice and none of the flatness I tend to get from several Dan blends. Sometimes they are a bit homogenius. Its in a Viprati.
