About This Pipe Tobacco

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 Reformation, however, is quite different from Presbyterian Mixture, its name a play on words between the Protestant Reformation and this blend's reformative nature compared to the original. Comprising Burley, Virginia, and Turkish tobaccos, this Aromatic flake has been lightly cased with cocoa and mocha notes that elevate the natural flavors of its components while leaving it pleasingly aromatic.

Reformation is the Golden grail
December 22, 2022

Absolutely beautiful blend. The dark fruit and chocolate notes are just enough, sweet on the finish. Oily a little on the tongue, but I like that so it’s a plus. Smokes well and has no problem burning all the way down to white ash. If you have not tried it get a tin if you can. I’ll be ordering as much as I can....Read More

Great blend, but I got a better name

... if you make a bitter old Calvinist a little sweeter, that's called a "United Presbyterian."

Tin note of chocolate, apricots and a nutty like vanilla. Tobacco is a flake of marbled brown, tan and dark brown. Moisture content is great. Rubs out with a little effort. Burns slow with a few relights. The strength is mild to medium and nic is mild. Flavoring is mild, with notes of cocoa, fruit and vanilla. The cocoa and vanilla dissipate quickly after initial light. The berry/apricot fruity flavor remains in the background throughout the smoke. Taste is medium and mostly consistent, with notes of cocoa, vanilla, nuts, sugar, berries/stone fruit, spices, earth, herbal/floral, dry, acidic, molasses, orange peel/zest, peaty vegetation, wood, grassy, a tangy fermented fruit background note, and a peppery retro. Burley is leading with Oriental/Turkish, Virginia and Flavoring supporting. Room note is pleasant to tolerable, and aftertaste is good....Read More

I don't get it

Not sure what all the fuss is about. I think people like it because they're supposed to. They assume, "well it's a very longstanding and much-loved recipe so it MUST be good". But it's not that great. It's just okay. Good virginias, not much else going on. Smells great, but sort of a letdown....Read More

I can’t actually believe that whoever put this foul concoction together actually thought it fit for a pipe! The tin says‘Danish flavourings are added to…’, if by that they mean a tin note like a two day old diaper and a taste like said diaper in a chemical fire they were spot on but any claim to cocoa and mocha is a downright lie. I can’t even finish my first bowl, it’s going in the trash where it belongs....Read More
