About This Pipe Tobacco

Enhanced with condimental tobaccos, Seattle Pipe Club's Mississippi River Special Reserve elevates Joe Lankford's original masterpiece with a selection of rich red Virginias, Orientals, Latakia, and Perique. These tobaccos are aged and then pressed and cut into plugs. Available here in a 2oz. tin.

From the Tin: "I've been dreaming of this Special Reserve edition of Mississippi River. It's my treat for you. Rare leaf is pressed in cakes, aged and cut into plugs for you to slice or crumble as you please. The Virginia is some of the best I've smoked. And the Latakia, aged Turkish and St James Perique make me very happy too. I hope you enjoy my Special Reserve Mississippi River." - Joe Lankford

This is one of the first tobacco's i've had that really truly blew me away. its taste is full and complex but the big thing for me is that it left my lips sweet. if you've never understood what aging does to tobacco this is the one to try
Barely any Latakia.

I actually was quite surprised with this one. Im not a huge fan of Latakia and the tangy Virginia really shined through for me. I came back for more but too late apparently. Still waiting on Galloping Gertie. My favorite SPC blend.
Legend is a classic.

It is very different from other L grass. It does not have the strong leather smell of other L grass, and the taste layer is very rich, which is worth having.
Much better

I'm not a fan of the so called "original" MR. As stated in my MR review, MR now is nothing like MR from 2014 and before.

I've never had the Sutliff produced version of MR Special Reserve due to the size and cost. I never wanted to spend that kind of money on 4 oz of tobacco and not know if I
'd like it.

Even though the tin note has vinegar, it dissipates pretty quick. This actually a little closer to the old P&C version. Has a little more body and flavor than MR. A little sweeter, smoker, and fuller but no drastic differences. Has a touch of tang from the vinegar but not over powering.

Over all its better. Not worth $21 a tin but if I had a itch for it then this would ve the version I'd get.

The Taste of the Mississippi River Water —— 密西西比河水的味道
April 10, 2026
Product: Seattle Pipe Club Mississippi River Special Reserve 2oz
Opening: Light English flavor with a relatively strong sweetness.
开盖:偏清淡的英式味道,有比较浓的甜味

Rubbing: Very oily to the touch; after the time it takes to watch a whole episode of a show, it still feels smooth, so I just loaded it directly into the pipe.
揉搓:手感十分油润,晾了一集美剧的时间摸起来还是很润,索性直接装斗开嘬
r>Drying : When I opened the tin before, it just smelled like typical English flavor, but after rubbing it, the whole room smelled like sweaty, stinky feet . I even doubted my own hygiene… Eventually, I realized the culprit was the tobacco on the plate…
醒草:之前开罐头时候只觉得是典型的英式味道,不知道为啥揉开了以后满屋子汗脚的酸臭味,几度怀疑自己的卫生状况已经这么糟糕了嘛,最后发现万恶之源就是盘子里的草……

Lighting:
点燃:

Beginning: Very gentle, nothing like the other English blends I’ve smoked before, very much like corn silk tea, with a subtle grain sweetness, herbal grass notes, and a silky, water-like smoothness.
初段非常柔和,完全不像是之前吸过的其他英式调味,非常像是玉米须水的味道,淡淡的谷物甜味、植物的草香再加上纯水一样的滑润

Middle to late: Slowly, sour notes appear, combined with persistent fructose sweetness and herbal grass flavor, turning the overall taste into something like apple peel water.
中后段开始慢慢的出现酸味,加上持续的果糖甜味和植物的草味,整个的味道变成了苹果皮水的味道

Burning: Burns very well throughout; even when taking big pulls, it doesn’t irritate, maintaining the same silky, water-like harmlessness.
全程的燃烧都很不错,大口狠吸也不会刺激,依旧纯水一样的无害口感
