Presbyterian: Ordained 50g Pipe Tobacco
Product Number: 003-054-0003
Presbyterian Mixture has been an iconic, all-day English blend for decades, blended before the first World War for Reverend Dr. John White, the Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland in 1925 and 1929. Presbyterian Ordained, however, is quite different from the original Presbyterian Mixture: It's a pure Virginia blend, offering bright notes of hay and citrus in a flake cut — perfect for years of cellaring or enjoyment fresh from the tin.

I buy most of my needs from SmokingPipes so I love their service. But cmon really? A new tobacco becomes available on 23rd and on 24th there are three 5 star reviews already? Please stop the fake reviews for marketing and sales. I am losing trust!
5 Stars for being straight.

Tried this on the last run and grabbed a few tins while supplies last. All the people that are posting negative reviews without trying this are missing out and acting like children. We are a piping community, let’s act like men.
Not a new blend

A lot of people are saying how can there be a review if it just came out. It didn’t just come out, it’s been re-released. So the people that are reviewing it may have already smoked it.

This stuff is amazing. Straight out of tin is almost perfect for a Virginia Flake. I can only imagine what 7 years of age would do.
Will the beta mails giving this fantastic blend a one star come back to rereview it. Because it's been available for a few months now.

Good flake bread and hay with a very light citrusy graham cracker finish. Get an extra tin or 2 to age.
A heavenly smoke indeed

e to blow smoke rings, and they are typically lacking complexity. Just know non of the above applies to Ordained the blessed blend!
These beautiful thin golden brown flakes fold and stuff beautifully and come with a good to go moisture level, though I intend to try it dried just a bit. The Virginia leaf that went into them is well matured and of course pressing into blocks for slicing into flakes helps too. Slice is a good word here as it definitely has some really nice bready notes, from nice fresh bread to darker toastier loaves. Think great lightly toasted bread with a dab of lemon marmalade as there are some nice gentle citrus notes and definitely some sweetness. There are some nice delicate hay flavors as well. It somehow makes a bit denser smoke than I expected with tiny touch of spice, not black pepper but more the slightly herbal floral notes of white pepper, just enough to make this a pretty complex blend for a straight Virginia. No signs at all of the negatives I noted above, cool, sweet, smooth, mellow and bite free. Strength is the mild side of medium, I sense no added flavoring and taste is medium or slightly above. A very pleasant room note and easily an all day smoke. 4 out of 4 for my tastes at least, try it and see what you think.
I am far from a saint, but Ordained is heavenly.

his one compliments my repertoire. I smoke Virginia, VaPer, and English tinned tobacco's. Usually, more English during cold temperatures, and VaPers/Virginia in hot temperatures. After being in a jar for a week, it hits smoother too. Just had another excellent bowl. Enjoy yourselves....Read More

After the last attempt at a different blend I won’t be ordering this stuff. Even the original isn’t up to much imo. I know people get bent out of shape when people leave reviews before tasting but I wouldn’t trust this stuff if my pipe depended on it.

Smoked a couple of tins of this, so far, and this one can't be beat. Having been raised Presbyterian, I think it only fitting and proper that we have our own mixtures. The regular Presbyterian has been a favorite and I think this could exceed it. Hope they keep making it.
