Drucquer & Sons: Loch Ness 100g Pipe Tobacco

Artfully developed by Gregory Pease, Loch Ness is a Scottish-style crumble plug mixture comprising ribbons of small-leaf Oriental, smoky Cypriot Latakia, and rare Louisiana Perique, elevated by bright lemon and matured red Virginia tobaccos. Once blended, the loose mixture is pressed and aged in cakes to meld flavors, then cut into plugs — combining the flavor-enhancing benefits of the pressing process with an easy, straightforward preparation for the pipe.

"I blended Loch Ness in the Scottish tradition with a wee twist. In the bowl, rich full flavors offer hints of dark fruit with spicy overtones. Destined to be drenched in folklore like its namesake, Loch Ness will soothe even the most ferocious beasts." - Gregory Pease

In the tin, Loch Ness' aromas are markedly decadent, punctuated by notes deep and opulent with an alluring hint of smoky zest. On the palate, the blend is rich and complex in flavor, balancing a tangy sweetness with piquant spice, hints of dark, stewed fruits, and a creamy, rounded finish. Medium in strength with fathoms of body and leagues of complexity, Loch Ness is the perfect all-day smoke for the lover of traditional Scottish and English pipe tobaccos.
