Best Selling Tinned Pipe Tobaccos

Just kidding. Stop review bombing stuff. It's absurd you can even review something when you haven't purchased it. Cry in emails to Smoking Pipes about not being fast enough to get the limited release. Leave the reviews for actual reviews. Read Less

Escudo is well represented in my cellar and for good reason. This blend ages with the best of them. Although, I really enjoy this blend with just a year of age on it. At this time when you crack a tin it has an incredible tin note of muscadines. The smell takes me back to my childhood and stopping at fruit stands on the side of the road with my mom. The blend not only smells great but it also taste pretty darn good too. The blend supports a wonderful mix of fruit, spice and a touch of hay (particularly when it is young). Give this one a try if you have not done so already. Read Less

This is one of C&D's core blends for a reason. Throw a rock and chances are you'll hit 1 or 2 pipe smokers who've tried it. And at the end of the day, it seems to elicit a love it or hate it response. I love it for many reasons. Firstly, I'm a burley man through and through, and BF delivers. Secondly, it brings the nic and the strength without blowing out my palate for the day. And last but not least, this is a very simple blend that takes very little thought. It's best sipped, especially in a Missouri Meerschaum cob of absolutely any size. I can smoke bowl after bowl of this while drawing up spec sheets and doing paperwork. Awesome blend again C&D!

Under the solemnity of Westminster Abbey, Time accumulates, years like paintings.The magnificent building soars to the clouds, The echoes of history resound at this moment.The fragrance of Westminster pipe tobacco,Rising gently, like dreams and veils. That scent, rich and intense,Like aged wine, enchanting the soul.And like the forest after rain, fresh and bewitching.The bells of the church toll leisurely,Through past and present, witnessing vicissitudes.The smoke of the pipe tobacco drifts with the wind,Thoughts fluttering, minds reaching afar.In this sacred and serene place,The charm of Westminster unfolds infinitely.The majesty of the abbey, the aroma of the pipe tobacco,Intertwined into poetry, engraved in the heart forever.

I wasn't blown away by this at first. However, the more I smoke the more I reach for it. This is a nice mild blend, burns well to a nice ash and takes to a flame easily. I will be buying more, this is really started to grow on me. As a follow up to this review, I just bought a larger tin, this has really grown on me and moving it to 5 stars. Read Less

Its one of the best Latakia blends if you enjoy that. But give me Galloping Gertie..You sold out of Hogshead too fast. I literally looked away from you for one day. Gone. Read Less

This is a very good blend, but not for $25/tin - Capstan Blue has lost it's value for me... there are a number of Virginias I have found that are close enough for nearly half the price. STG is looking for the kind of margins they get with cigars with this product, and apparently are getting them! I've moved on... Read Less

This is the blend for the back porch when the wife and the rest of the world are in bed, the dogs are curled up somewhere else, the traffic noise died down, fire pit going, you’ve spent all day banging the corporate drum while boss makes a dollar and you make a dime, and you pour one up, stuff this in a big briar and say “man, what a day, tomorrow is Friday”.

I don't write reviews often, but this one seemed to be a given. As is my usual practice, I opened a tin of Peterson EMP, the day after I got it, and the day before I smoked it. The introduction of air to a vacuum sealed tin always tends to excite the poor tobacco that has been deprived, and it gets it pretty excited. Well I must say I was incredibly happy to have EMP back. From the moment I opened the tin I could remember the wonderful scent of Dunhill EMP. From the moment of the 1st burn, everything was right in the world again. Thank you Peterson for picking this back up, and keeping it exactly the same!! Read Less

Ugh, I hate saying it... It's easily in my top 5 favorite tobacco of all time. If I only had this to smoke for the rest of my life, I would die a happy man. Bit, don't buy any of it because YOU will probably hate it. I'll bear the burden of trying to buy and smoke it all so you guys dont have to. No need to thank me. Just move right along. I heard 10 Russians is a close match! Cheers!!! Read Less

I am NOT A fan of this type os Aromatic tobacco. So you may wonder WHY I bought a tin? All I can say is that I was suckered into buying it because of the promotion, the packaging, and my deep respect for MOST of what C&D produces. I like to try almost everything in pipe tobacco, at least once. Consider myself a connoisseur and I believe that I shouldn't judge a thing until I've tried it. Big mistake. This blend is EXACTLY why I generally don't like many aromatics. The taste of Maple, or Brown Sugar or pancakes simply does not belong in my pipe bowl. I ate pancakes this very morning. I don't need to smoke them. The taste of this heavily sweetened, overly flavored tobacco was so cloying that I can't get the unpleasant taste out of my mouth yet. The classic "Cavendish" sweetness that I most hate is redolent in this blend. If you love Captian Black White or any other of the thousands of cheaply made, overly sweet stuff your grandfather smoked for thirty years, then you will love this. I'm an English, Balkan, Va/Per, Va/Burley, straight Virginia smoker, and I know what I like. I also know what I hate, and this personifies everything I HATE in pipe tobacco. I hope I can get the taste out of my mouth some day, and I pray that I can rid my new Nording Prince of it's fouling aftertaste. Buyer BEWARE!! Read Less

I blame the wonderful Malcolm Guite for his love of this tobacco. Having now gotten myself some, I can undoubtedly say I'm a huge fan. Lovely sugary sweetness with overtones of baked bread and smooth herbal notes. Read Less

This is an OK Virginia plug, but nothing special. It smokes cool, but only mild natural flavor from the tobacco. Some aging might help. And for the 中国人 scalpers who want to buy it all and resell at a markup - stick to trading Pokemon cards. This industry is a bad business model for that behavior. Fake 5 Star reviews to create Artificial Scarcity only works on here. Most of us will find the same product elsewhere even if you buy it all here. We'll then shrug our shoulders at the FOMO and laugh at you. Get a real job. Read Less

A lot has been said comparing the latest version of (Bell's) Three Nuns and it's predecessors, but all I've ever had is the modern take. And that I can tell you, is pretty good. It's dominating character is some tasty dark-fired Kentucky. The Virginia and Burley fall in behind the DFK with Burley coming in second most but not all of the time. The cut is curly, a.k.a. coin, and they are not tightly spun. The coins are small and fragile, basically lending themselves to an easy rub-out and they have a good moisture level. You could try to stack these but they're too small to fold. If you've had Mac Baren Dark Twist, the cut is the same. In fact, the two tobaccos are very similar. In my experience the Bell's is fuller bodied and a bit stronger in the nicotine department, but the flavors are the same...smokey without the Latakia campfire. I enjoyed this one fresh off finishing a Dark Twist 100g tin to make a side-by-side comparison for myself and I think I prefer the Mac Baren, but because they are so similar this could just be the tins I had. The Mac Baren was 7 years old, and the Three Nuns only a few months and I know that can make a big difference. If either of these sound good to you, get a tin of each. Three nuns should be tried by all. Tobaccos with pedigrees as old as this one that are still around deserve a try. Enjoy. UPDATE: Since I posted this review, Three Nuns has expanded to a nine nuns lineup: Red, Green and Yellow. It's worth mentioning that the Green tin contains Perique like the original version by Bell's. If you're looking for something akin to older versions, you may want to start with Three Nuns Green.

After 40 years of pipe smoking, and 30 years of "English" type blends, Balkan Sasieni is just perfect for me. I smoked Balkan Sobranie for some 25 years (on and off always as a treat) and this blend is just as fabulous. I was tobacco blender and retail manager to the famous WILKE PIPE SHOP from 1979-93. I have tasted and blended a world of tobacco. I settled on Sobranie and now......Sasieni. For me it is wonderful and most satisfying. Read Less

This is not your grandpa's English. I wondered if the world needed another English blend to go with the other 400 out there already. The answer is yes. This is good stuff and different enough to find a spot in my rotation. Read Less

Much upset for the guys who cellared 100+ tins of Dunhill tobacco to flip, only to find Peterson bought the rights to Dunhill's excellent blends.
Same factory, same blend, same process as Dunhill's Flake.
The only thing that's changed is the sticker on the front.
Great solid Brown Virginias, sweet grassy smoke which gets much better with age. Read Less

Been smoking this for Years!. It is dry, BUT, I add slices of Orange Peel when i first open the bag. Shake it up and let it sit sealed for a day-ish.... good thing is... if it gets too moist, i can let it sit with the bag open until i get it just right.... The orange really makes it a tasty and floral smoke. Read Less
