Drucquer & Sons: Trafalgar 100g Pipe Tobacco

Product Number: 003-756-0011

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 Charl 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.

A classic English mixture, Trafalgar sets smooth, exotically spicy Turkish tobaccos in perfect balance with a variety of fine Bright and Red Virginias, Perique, and just enough Latakia for a subtle smokiness. The result is a rich, elegant pipe tobacco with lots of character and enough complexity to keep smokers engaged throughout the bowl, and throughout the day.

Drucquer tins were never vacuum packed.

Product: Drucquer & Sons Trafalgar 100g
Alan S, I'm sorry if you don't find enough latakia presence in this one. There's actually quite a bit in the blend, but the relatively low percentage of oriental leaf can sometimes make it seem like there's less latakia than there is. These two tobac... Read More

Rarely have I come across a blend that is so good with no age whatsoever. I popped the tin, filled my pipe, and fell in love; no waiting, no wondering if it'd be better in a different pipe, no wishing for something more, just a great smoke. This is E... Read More

This is a mixture that deserves the highest accolades. It exhibits layers of flavor and is very satisfying. At first, I found it too full for my tastes. But I've learned to really appreciate this blend in the evening, after dinner and especially with... Read More

This beautiful blend is a beautiful song that plays in your mouth every time you smoke it. Extremely clean and refreshing, bowl after bowl can be smoked with no desire for respite. The Virginia and Orientals take center stage with a little smokiness ... Read More
Sealed Tins

Product: Drucquer & Sons Trafalgar 100g
Actually, the tins were vacuum sealed after a fashion. I was the factory rep for Southern Cal for a short time during the last 10 years the tins were produced and there was a small hole on the bottom. The tins were heated up and a small drop of mel... Read More

A finely balance English tobacco. The tin note represents that of a fine English blend, the flavor is outstanding. Just the right balance of Latkakia and Perique. A great blend for my Barling Trafalgar pipes with the same name.

Well, this is the third D & S tobacco that I have tried. Blairgowrie and Levant were the previous 4.5 star. This blend is great for robust snorkeling. Starts out creamy, then as cherry drops a transformation takes place, and the woodsy, earthy, smok... Read More

Product: Drucquer & Sons Trafalgar 100g
Trafalgar is well blended. It reminds me of an aged wine. My tin is two years old from 2018. The latakia is like a fine layer of creaminess and smoke which upholds the Virginia's and Orientals. There is no one varietal overtaking. As the bowl burns d... Read More

This is a mixture that deserves the highest accolades. It exhibits layers of flavor and is very satisfying. It is a little full for my taste, but it's still an exceptional blend. Greg Pease deserves kudos for having created it.
A Very Good English w/Limited Latakia

If you were to take some Blairgowrie & mix in the right proportion of Levant Mixture, you'd have something akin to Trafalgar. I'm nearly halfway through my first bowl & that is my initial impression of Trafalgar. This is a very comfortable blend to ... Read More

I smoked my first bowl of Trafalgar last night, and I have to say, it's a very enjoyable smoke from start to finish; it's very smooth and well behaved. Thank you Mr. Pease for producing such a lovely blend.

Wow, what a blend, in honour of my "Loyalist" mindset surrounding the Monarchy and UK (I'm Canadian) I bought this blend along with a Barling, Trafalgar, Fossil, 1818. The combination I find pays an excellent Homage to Admiral Nelsons death as he hea... Read More

I have tried a trio of Drucquer offerings -- Trafalgar, Blairgowrie, and Levant Mixture. I may try a couple more, as these are uniformly excellent. Of Trafalgar, I'd say this is the more balanced of the three, with a good but not overpowering dose o... Read More

This is without a doubt one of the best English blends I've had the pleasure of smoking... Deliciously floral and deep, with just the right amount of smoky sweetness to round things out. Try it, you won't be disappointed!

The quality of the tobaccos make this blend shine. For me personally the blend is a 4/5 for flavor but 5/5 for quality. Flavors are as expected from this style blend adding in a nice sweetness that remains for most of a bowl. It is a bit mild making ... Read More

Had high expectations given the reviews. Enjoy MM 965 and was hoping for a good English Blend. Seems to taste.... flat, weak and without much substance. Didn't taste much of the Perique or Latakia, nor much of anything else. Maybe I got a bad tin... Read More

This is an excellent Balkan blend. Right up there with Levant Mixture. I plan to always have several tins of Trafalgar and Levant Mixture in stock. Fabulous tobaccos!!

I am a big fan of G L Pease blended tobaccos. I especially enjoy Caravan, Abingdon and Ashbury. But, Trafalgar is likely the best, most satisfying blend I've ever smoked. The body is the perfect strength for me, . But the flavor is exquisite. ... Read More

The Latakia is right there upon lighting up,but not in a huge amount.Medium bodied,I would call it.I have been going to this and the Levantine mixture these days.

Product: Drucquer & Sons Trafalgar 200g
I have been smoking pipes since I was a freshman 50 years ago, and Dunhill 965 was my favorite. Trafalgar is wonderful for those who not only like, but love a good English blend. It is smooth, no tongue bite, superb flavor, and a a dream to smoke.
Where is the Latakia?
September 27, 2016
Product: Drucquer & Sons Trafalgar 100g
As with The Devil's Own there is barely any discernible Latakia. Just enough seems to be not enough for me. Not vacuum packed. The Original Tins were.
