About This Pipe Tobacco

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.

Salty Dogs is, as its name implies, a classic Navy-style plug: Virginias and a pinch of Perique, flavored with rum, and pressed tight into hard, pocket-sized blocks. It hearkens to how many sailors would transport tobacco, the dense plugs preserving the tobaccos' moisture content and allowing smokers to cut flakes as-needed during long, ocean voyages.

Very dense plug of dark tobacco. I use a sharp knife to slice paper thin strips and rub it into ribbons with my fingers
Nice grassy hay flavors and aroma, has a light fruity casing

Burns cool and doesn't bite

Totally enjoyable !

This blend was amazing when it was 14-16 dollars, but at the baffling 28 dollars it's currently going for, two stars is the highest I can go.
A top 4 for me

For anyone needing a good method for smoking this I'll give mine that I've used for about a decade now. Grab a cheese grater, mind your fingers and grate you a bowl off. Do not let it dry, rum burns just fine and relights are actually a pleasant thing with this tobacco. I have a sav 121 ks solely for this tobacco because a large diameter bowl works well for the flavor. Sprinkle the fine shavings just enough to get a about a 1/4 bowl full and then vigorously but softly tap the bowl to let it find its own tamp. Do this 3 to 4 times until you have a 3/4 to 2/3 full bowl. Do not push the tobacco at all, or you'll think your trying to suck a frosty through a straw.On your char light be aggressive and get a good char, give it the lightest tamp you've ever done and then light and enjoy. When you think it might be going out instead of giving puffs give a quick easy light and it'll be like the first light of the bowl oddly enough. This stuff ages so good so if you can afford I recommend putting some back for 10 years, future you will thank you. The price sucks these days but what can ya do...Read More

Very good dense plug. Fantastic flavors and blend quality but I couldn't not bring myself to enjoy it often at the current price.

Seriously good stuff. I get a deep rich flavors of vanilla, which I'm guessing is from the rum, some sort of caramel, and figs all playing together like perfect pre schoolers. Used a cigar cutter to get thin stips and let them dry for around 5 minutes packed my pipe and let that sit for another 10 minutes. The flavors popped out instantly and remained there the entire bowl. A few charing lights and a real light and I never had to light it again. Just amazing 👏...Read More
