Dan Tobacco: Gordon Pym 50g Pipe Tobacco

Product Number: 003-293-0003

Manufactured in a century-old brick building in picturesque Lauenburg, Germany, Dan pipe tobacco has gained quite a worldwide reputation among smokers, with a wide variety of blends and cuts on offer. Andreas Mund became the successor in charge of production when master blender Jürgen Westphal retired, and is assisted by Heiko Behrens as well as Michael Apitz of Dan Pipe.

Gordon Pym pipe tobacco is named for the titular character in Edgar Allan Poe's The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket — the American author's only full-length novel. It's an adventurous seafaring story involving stowaways, shipwrecks, and cannibals, but as a pipe tobacco blend, Gordon Pym from Dan Tobacco combines Latakia and Orientals with Virginias in a ribbon cut for a classic English mixture suited for both oceanic excursions and at-home contemplations.

Good Blend

Like the book this blend is good not great the Latakia is a bit lacking and the orientals dont stand out much to me. While a perfect moisture when opened it seems to cause tongue bite a bit for me. It seems a bit high in Virginias and needs a slower cadence to avoid severe bite.I will keep a couple in the cellar because the name but this wont be a go to blend....Read More

This blend tastes like the original Dunhill ‘Standard Mixture Medium’. It is one of my favorite tinned blends.

A PLEASANT SURPISING SHOCK!

Product: Dan Tobacco Gordon Pym 50g
I bought a tin of this nearly 4 years ago. Tried it then, didn't care for it. Almost threw it away. A week ago added moisture to it. Lit up a bowl full. Smooth, no bite, no matter how I puffed, and good flavor. Smooth burn all the way to the bottom, no relights. Shockingly, this is in my top 5 now....Read More

An average gentleman

To my palate, Gordon Pym remains a solid English offering that nonetheless lacks a few crucial traits to make it a favorite in my book. The note in the tin is very smoky, promising a quality offering of Latakia that the mixture indeed delivers. The cut makes for an easy packing a good burn rate, which further solidify Mr Pym's reputation as a dependable companion. Where the blend falls short, for me, is the dryness, not of the leaf but the actual taste. It seems like the best way to describe what I miss in the flavour department. Of course, I prefer my blends to *smoke* dry. But while the flavour delivers smokiness in spades, it lacks certain subtleties that make, say, McClelland's Wilderness a blends that stands apart. I admit that I prefer my steaks on the raw side of medium and that is precisely what is lacking in Mr Pym. It feels slightly overdone and thus a little arid, dull, and ashy. It reminds me the most, perhaps, of Esoterica's Margate, which I also did not care for much. Having said that, I am sure there are smokers out there for whom this could be a four star blend. Perhaps even the prince in their rotation. For myself, I prefer the rounder, sweeter Latakia mixtures out there....Read More

A quality mild English. Very smooth and enjoyable. I like it as a change of pace to my Aromatic and Virginia tobaccos. Dan tobacco hits the mark again.

This blend is so understated .. Easy to lite and keep going, Cool, No Bite, No Gummy Residue on Palate... It taste like Chinese Preserved Plums... Sweet and Salt, what we call Salt Prunes in Trinidad... The tin I'm now trying is my first try, but I'll be stockpiling some of it... NB. The tin I'm trying I have had since Sep. 2008... So I'm interested to know if it will be the same with a new tin....Read More

越抽越好抽

很碎的裁切，开罐后闻着味道挺柔和的，拉塔基亚的特点很明显。一开始抽了几斗感觉一般，后来再抽觉得越来越好抽，也许是很少抽这种很碎的烟草没有经验。建议放在梅森瓶里先用保湿片增加一些湿度，然后填装的时候不能太紧，这种很碎的烟草很容易填的太紧。总体来说味道香甜美味而且柔和不腻，现在已经是我很喜欢的烟草之一了。
