About This Pipe Tobacco

Manufactured in a century-old brick building in picturesque Lauenburg, Germany, Dan pipe tobacco has gained quite a worldwide reputation among smokers, with a wide variety of blends and cuts on offer. Andreas Mund became the successor in charge of production when master blender Jürgen Westphal retired, and is assisted by Heiko Behrens as well as Michael Apitz of Dan Pipe.

Gordon Pym pipe tobacco is named for the titular character in Edgar Allan Poe's The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket — the American author's only full-length novel. It's an adventurous seafaring story involving stowaways, shipwrecks, and cannibals, but as a pipe tobacco blend, Gordon Pym from Dan Tobacco combines Latakia and Orientals with Virginias in a ribbon cut for a classic English mixture suited for both oceanic excursions and at-home contemplations.

Not a "ribbon cut".

Product: Dan Tobacco Gordon Pym 50g
I had sampled this a few years ago, and found it then to be a well balanced and well behaved English mixture. Fast forward to 2025, I ordered several tins, only to find the blend presented as a "cube cut", and somewhat irregular at that. It neither packs well, nor burns well, and the flavor is quite lacking. Maybe this is just a bad tin, but I'm not planning on opening the others. I might just toss them, or give them away. NOT RECOMMENDED...Read More

Like the book this blend is good not great the Latakia is a bit lacking and the orientals dont stand out much to me. While a perfect moisture when opened it seems to cause tongue bite a bit for me. It seems a bit high in Virginias and needs a slower cadence to avoid severe bite.I will keep a couple in the cellar because the name but this wont be a go to blend....Read More

This blend tastes like the original Dunhill ‘Standard Mixture Medium’. It is one of my favorite tinned blends.

Product: Dan Tobacco Gordon Pym 50g
I bought a tin of this nearly 4 years ago. Tried it then, didn't care for it. Almost threw it away. A week ago added moisture to it. Lit up a bowl full. Smooth, no bite, no matter how I puffed, and good flavor. Smooth burn all the way to the bottom, no relights. Shockingly, this is in my top 5 now....Read More
