Overlooked Excellence

Product: Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation 1882 Founders Blend 3.5oz
I've been smoking English blends for over 20 years, and this is one of the best. Probably overlooked as not being "serious" because it's nestled in with a handful of aromatics from Erik Stokkebye and because, well, there are about 500 oth... Read More

A Great Brit Blend!!

Product: Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation 1882 Founders Blend 3.5oz
First I want to say that all of the blends in this line are excellent. The early blends to arrive proved how good aromatics can be. But being an English and Latakia lover primarily, I was pleased that Stokkebey finally put their master blender's p... Read More
owers to create a unique and pleasurable English with complexity and balance. Not your average English, among a crowded field of also-ran blends. I highly recommend this wonderfull treat!! Read Less
Nicely surprised

Product: Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation 1882 Founders Blend 3.5oz
I've never tried a 'true' english blend, and frankly, I probably would know one if I smoked it...I'm only going by what others say. So, assuming this is a 'true' english blend, I was nicely surprised by it. I already smoke this brand's 1897 version (... Read More
for quite a while now) which is fantastic, so it seems that this company has their act together regarding good quality, pleasing, pipe tobaccos. Read Less
Luxurious

Product: Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation 1882 Founder's Blend 1.4oz
A friend gifted me a 13 year old tin of 1882 Founders Blend. Quite frankly, I'd never heard of it, but gave it a try. I found it to be the best and most luxurious English tobacco I've smoked. A hidden gem for sure.
Quite enjoyable

Never really liked english blends of tobacco ,I always thought that they smelled like a campfire. That is until I tried this.
Nowhere near as harsh as I thought it would be
good to go.

Tin note of sour fruit, sweet hay and smoky. Tobacco is a coarse cut of brown, black and tan. Moisture content is great. Burns moderate with a few relights. The strength is medium and nic is mild. No flavoring detected. Taste is medium and moderately... Read More
consistent, with notes of smoky, spices, incense, sour peaty vegetation, orange peel, leather, nuts, herbal floral, tangy citrus, toast, spicy, dark dry fruit, wood, earth, molasses, cocoa, a mildly sweet lemon grassy background note, and a peppery retro. Latakia is leading with Kentucky, Oriental/Turkish and Virginia supporting. Room note is tolerable, and aftertaste is great. Read Less

Product: Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation 1882 Founder's Blend 1.4oz
I have tried Stokkebye's aromatics before. For English blends i have prefered two styles; GL Pease Quiet Nights smooth and refined and then there is C&D Big N Burley or Bayou Nights, where sometimes i add more Latakia for some OOMPH. This to m... Read More
e, is a bit of both worlds. It has some complexity smoothness, with some spice from the Orientals, but some oomph with the burley and Dark Fired Kentucky. It is almost sweet in tin note, almost smelled like an aromatic Cavendish. Taste was nutty/ carmelly notes from burley, got some spice, and at times had a Virginia moment where it had the leafy flavor which then went into the bitter note that for me was a bit of Latakia. The Dark Fired Kentucky lent a smoky note that was subtle. This blend is now a favorite for sure. FYI the Tin had 14 month's of age on it Read Less

Very wet. Strong molasses sweet smell. Not bad but the finish tastes a bit of dish soap.

Good but doesn't stand out

Product: Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation 1882 Founder's Blend 1.4oz
4th generation is good, and that price isn't bad; my issue with it is that you can get bulk English blends that are as good or better for even cheaper. This one was pretty dry in the tin, packs and smokes very well, and actually makes a good ash for ... Read More

No dull or harsh spots to be found. The strength and taste levels are medium. This is a very enjoyable blend, one that I could easily smoke any time.
