Ripe Red and Bright flue-cured tobaccos are joined by piquant Acadian Perique and a balanced measure of smoky Dark-Fired Kentucky for G. L. Pease's Triple Play. The leaf is pressed and matured in cakes before being cut into 2oz bars, resulting in a bold blend for Virginia and Perique fans. This all-American plug is a winning play, no matter how you slice it.
