About This Pipe Tobacco

Founded in 1841, Drucquer & Sons was a famed London tobacco shop that relocated to Berkeley, California, in 1928. The shop was more than just a tobacconist though; it was a community. It was where some of the greatest tobacco-blenders in recent memory — like Carl Ehwa of McClelland and Gregory Pease of G.L. Pease — first plunged their hands into fragrant tobacco. The historic shop may be gone, but its rich history and brand of pipe tobaccos continues, reformulated from their original recipes by Gregory Pease (and made by Cornell & Diehl) for the modern smoker.

Created in the classic Scottish blending style and meaning "Plain of Gowrie" in Gaelic — a burgh near Perth, Scotland — Blairgowrie is a robust blend of matured and aged Virginia leaf, fine Orientals, Cypriot Latakia, and Perique. The tobaccos are pressed and aged before being sliced and fully rubbed out for a rich smoking experience. Blairgowrie is rich and full-bodied, providing a balanced English blend that appeals even to those who don't typically prefer mixtures with Latakia.

Not bad

Product: Drucquer & Sons Blairgowrie 100g
I was expecting more, but was disappointed. I have to ask, Where is the latakia? All the other tobaccos were present, but it seems to me the latakia was missing altogether. I was hoping for something close to Rattray's "Highland Targe" as it is hard to get. Smoked it in a fresh Peterson's "Sherloke Holms Watson". Not sure I will try another tin of this....Read More
Best go-to English/Scottish style

Top 5 immediately. Very well balanced with the Latakia elegantly intertwined with the Virginias and soft Orientals. Sumptuous orientals. Did I mention it was very well balanced? You can balance and muddle the flavors or you can balance and artistically retain the high delicate ends of the blend components and Mr Pease has certainly done that here. Smoked sublimely in a Peterson Sherlock Holmes Calabash. Like they were meant for each other and only each other. Generous volumes of smoke btw. Yet fairly cool burning. This is a different blend from the glp line many of those English Balkan Scottish blends are pungent sometimes with a texture of Peatty Earth and spiced. This is a different affair altogether. Yes, it isnt complex, but it is tasy consistently. Highly recommend....Read More
Balanced and fairly complex, but nothing dominant.

Product: Drucquer & Sons Blairgowrie 200g
This is a great blend, but it may be too balanced for my tastes. I normally prefer something being a dominant note in my smoke, but this one doesn’t seem to have it. There’s grassy virginias, spicy perique, smoky Latakia and fruity orientals, but all in a nearly perfect balance. The quality of the flake is exceptional, but since it’s all balanced out no notes take a drivers seat. This may appeal more to someone with a more nuanced sense of taste, but for me I need something the edges out the other flavors. Definitely worth trying though....Read More

Yes it is the kitchen sink of blends. But in such a delicious and artful way
