About This Pipe Tobacco

This is NOT the tobacco blend that C. S. Lewis smoked
June 30, 2026
Product: Three Nuns Three Nuns 1.75oz
It is true that C. S. Lewis smoked a pipe tobacco blend called Three Nuns. This is NOT that blend. This is a cheap knockoff put out by STG which they then overcharge for. $25 for 1.75 oz?! Don't be fooled by STG. Go buy a different, cheaper, and better blend.
Expensive for a Lie

The original blend by this name that was smoked by C.S. Lewis was a VaPer, this is a DFK/Burley blend that has little in common with its namesake and uses its name to justify exorbitant prices. If you want a blend close to Lewis's, there are plenty of options, if you want a good DFK/Burley blends there are also plenty of options. Save your money....Read More

I don't care who smoked it. This blend ain't transporting you to Narnia. It's just average.
Wonderful Tobacco Character, but I Wish the Finish Lasted Longer

Product: Three Nuns Three Nuns 1.75oz
know Three Nuns has a long history and that the recipe has changed considerably over the years. I never smoked the original Perique version, so I can only judge the tobacco available today.

And personally, I find it very enjoyable.

What impresses me most is how beautifully the different tobacc
o characteristics come together. I detect black tea, a subtle bacon-like savory note, and a pleasant fermented character that occasionally reminds me of cigar tobacco.

I enjoy Dark-Fired Kentucky, but I sometimes find it too rustic and aggressive when smoked alone. Three Nuns gives me some of that character in a much more rounded, harmonious and satisfying blend.

My only real disappointment is the finish. The flavor and aftertaste are wonderful, but they fade too quickly. I wish that beautiful savory character would linger longer.

For that reason, I'm giving it 4 out of 5 stars, rather than 5.

Whatever its differences from the historical recipe, I believe the modern Three Nuns deserves to be judged for what it actually offers today. And to my palate, it offers quite a lot.

Excellent Blend

Product: Three Nuns Three Nuns 1.75oz
I completely enjoy this blend. I’ve searched other blends that have similar components and I still come back to this one for its incredible mouth feel and flavor. It’s one of the tobaccos in my rotation that leave a unique taste for hours after I smoke it. I’ve stocked up a bit and will enjoy this for years to come...Read More
