Mr Pease, My hero

Product: Drucquer & Sons Loch Ness 100g
If it were possible to pour a glass of Lagavulin 16 yr old scotch into a pipe and smoke it, you’d have Loch Ness! Delicious, complex, perfect.
Product: Drucquer & Sons Loch Ness 100g
After finishing the tin I will say that this is really in a class by itself. Just simply a great smoke. Even though I’m retired and broke when again available will order 20 tins while my wife is visiting friends in Minneapolis
Delicious.

A delicious, wonderful tobacco that has a subtle sweetness and smoky body, that won't run you out of the room. Absolutely love this tobacco and intend to get a couple more tins: one for present smoking, and another for storing.
Of the better half in the line up

If you can find it in stock, its worth snagging a few tins. Again, these are all good and reliable smokes. They're my go to, not my favorite of all time, but this is the foundation of my collection. I always have a few cans of D&S blends in the cella... Read More

Product: Drucquer & Sons Loch Ness 100g
I am an experienced cigar smoker and a whisky lover, I expect I could be able to enjoy any kind of tobacco. However, I found Loch Ness still too strong for me, it like concentrated ardbeg corryvreckan, but lack of sweetly and complexity. May improve ... Read More

This is a mild but unique English. It’s quickly becoming one of my favorite blends. I really hope they start selling in the 8 or 16 ounce varieties soon. I guess since it’s D&S I should say the 700g variety. No matter what kind of tobacco you like d... Read More

Nessie is delicious!
May 27, 2022
Product: Drucquer & Sons Loch Ness 100g
I just keep reaching for my jar of Loch Ness, and truly can’t get enough. I have a decent selection of pipe tobacco to choose from. Probably around 50 jars, give or take a few. Since I have received this, which was only about a month, and I’ve had ... Read More
about 8-10 bowls and have thoroughly enjoyed it and really do Jones” for my next fix. I’ll be at work thinking about packing a bowl of Nessie. I’m not sure what makes a blend “scottish”, but I may need to find another scottish blend to compare this too. I love Latakia, and blends like pirate cake, or any of captain earles Latakia forward offerings. With that said, I also enjoy blends like this where the Latakia takes the back seat and sweet, tangy VA’s hop in the driver seat. The orientals and Latakia work together, neither one jumps in the front seat, but I do get a slight tingle and zip from the orientals, and a nice floral, sweet and sour, and smoky combo from them working together.
I can’t say enough, I really really like smoking Ole Nessie here. Hopefully they decide to offer this in the 200g tin. Great job Mr Pease!
I may have to try more of D&S’s blends because this blend was my first and a lot of the other blends sound amazing. Happy smokes! Read Less

What a great smoke. This is one of a select few that I generally smoke alone as it has enough going on that conversation would be a distraction. It is incredibly balanced with lots of different notes from the expected of smoke and coco to the unexp... Read More
ected dark currant. It smokes well with few relights. It burns slowly, but can run a little hot. It rubs out really easily, so go lightly to reduce that possibility. It's also quite possible that I like it so much I may be puffing a little greedily. Highly reccommended. Read Less

Product: Drucquer & Sons Loch Ness 100g
Artfully crafted blend. The perique and Latakia really play well together in producing a smoke that is not overpowering yet quite fulfilling. The balance from the Virginia really helps to mellow out the backside of the flavor. Would most certainly re... Read More

Ordered five tins intending to store them for a few years but out of curiosity popped one open. This is exactly to my tastes. Classic. Bravo!
A masterpiece of the art of blending

Product: Drucquer & Sons Loch Ness 100g
It arrived in the mail about two hours ago and I’m starting my second bowl now. It might be a bit presumptuous to give a blend five stars after just one bowl but I’m struggling to think of another blend that was this good straight out of a freshly op... Read More
ened tin. It’s perfectly balanced and beautifully complex with the orientals, Latakia and different Va’s vying for attention and the Perique popping it’s head up to remind you it’s there. Sweet, sour, smoky and a little spicy, everything in this blend comes through as it should. Read Less

After smoking a few I find that the last half of the bowl elevates this blend to great in my book.

My favorite pipe tobacco!!!

Product: Drucquer & Sons Loch Ness 100g
I always considered myself an aromatic guy, but after trying this I'm hooked. This is the tobacco that got me more interested in non aromatic pipe tobacco. I can't say enough about this tobacco. It is my all time favorite!

Product: Drucquer & Sons Loch Ness 100g
Aaron T has it right, this blend both tin note, nose note and after taste are of a single malt scotch of 12 years or more. I don't know how the madman did it, but with all of that considered, Mr. Pease, never get rid of this, and if you reading this ... Read More

Product: Drucquer & Sons Loch Ness 100g
Opened tin, took in the aroma. Smells excellent. Did a rub out for a bowl, and let it sit in the Castello for two hours. Looks like D & S / Pease is batting .1000.
Loch Ness is exceptional and outstanding, as are Blairgowrie, Levant, 1st Ammendment,... Read More
Red Lion, and Trafalgar. Glad I purchased 300 grams of Loch Ness. The flavor transforms as you move down in the bowl. Sip or robust snorkle, no burn or bite for me. A definite winner! Even with one month in humidor, the taste gets even better. Same with Trafalgar. Read Less

Ok
So this is yet another Mr. Pease blend that is good till the last puff. Smokes well and has a lot of flavor. Room note I am told is nice and not very overpowering.
awesome!

Product: Drucquer & Sons Loch Ness 100g
This freshly opened tin has notes of fruity alcohol, smoke and mild Rasin. The mostly brown marbled crumble plug has a little black and tan mixed in. Tobacco is moist but doesn't really need drying. Breaks apart and rubs out with little effort. Burns... Read More
slow with a few relights. The strength is medium and nic is mild to medium. No flavoring overtly detected, though tin note said otherwise, and I admit it could be a little fermentation (tin date 032322). Taste is medium to full and mostly consistent, with notes of musty herbal spices, dry earth, lots of smoky wood, floral, sweet grass, tart lemon, mild burnt toast, mild sour vinegar, tangy stewed plum, and very mild peppery retro. Oriental leading Latakia supported by Virginia and perique. Room note is tolerable, and aftertaste is great. Read Less

This blend is one more in a category that has many contenders yet few champions.
I find it pleasant to be a Tobacco Enthusiast at this moment in time for we enjoy the very best blends and this is one of them.
Recommend to all Enthusiasts and newcom... Read More
ers ready to try a blend that offers rich flavor and quality tobaccos.
I do suggest smaller bowls for newcomers but overall the power is low for the amount of flavor on offer.
EDIT:
After a number of bowls I think I found the secret to this blend.
Originally I thought this to be a good blend with some undefined flavor that held in to the bottom of the bowl. I spent a lot of effort trying to pin down that flavor.
I say the flavor is “fresh water”.
how good a blender is Mr. Pease to make tobacco taste like water?
Also after this many bowls I can safely say this is both delicious and unusual for a blend and should be sampled by all Enthusiasts and newcomers.
Well done Mr. Pease! Read Less

I don’t ever sip Jack Daniel’s Black neat from a Glencairn, but I have to say this pairs very well with a dram of the Tennessee whiskey. Save the Lagavulin for the Levant Mixture. The banana note on the JD gets amped a little but works well on the no... Read More

I am a big fan of Greg Pease blends, but particularly love a few of these Drucquer blends that he has done. Blairgowrie, Levant, Trafalgar, and Loch Ness are all must tries if you are a fan of English blends. Loch Ness is my favorite of the 4, as it... Read More
has a lot of depth, a bit peaty, a bit zesty, with the sweetness from the Virginia wrapping everything together into perfect harmony. It is not overpowering, and is probably a bit left of medium from a Nic perspective. The tin note is superb and it smokes much like it smells in the tin. I haven’t had much from Greg which I do not like, but Loch Ness is on another level.
Update: it is with some regret that I feel I must append my original review. It is even better than I originally let on. I tried to resist the urge to revisit my review, but in the end I did not feel good about keeping something this good to myself. Read Less

1st try in my new Joe Hinkle Jade Prince…wonderful! Sweet mild English with nice nic hit. Don’t expect to get anything done for a couple hours after smoking a bowl of this! I had to take a couple of brakes but looked forward to each relite.
Product: Drucquer & Sons Loch Ness 100g
I am a fan of Scottish blend tobaccos. This is my first time sipping on Loch Ness, and I must say, I'm truly impressed. It burns slowly and evenly. The complexity taste notes changes slightly but remains the same to the end.
Stop worrying and love Latakia
May 02, 2022
Product: Drucquer & Sons Loch Ness 100g
I have gone around and around with blends that contain Latakia and never found one that really landed in a sweet spot … until I got to know Nessie here. I feel the Latakia in this blend perfectly supports and complements the other components, making ... Read More
a rich and nuanced smoke that has body, sweetness, spice, and cool pepper in perfect balance. The cake runs out to ideal fine ribbon and burns effortlessly. I cannot recommend this blend strongly enough for anyone seeking a subtle and satisfying Scottish mixture. I’ve smoked it with best results in a Group 5 Dunhill, but I’m sure it would be great in any pipe. Read Less
