Now in its fourth generation of producing fine pipe tobaccos, the Stokkebye family tradition began with Erik Peter Stokkebye, born in 1855, and continues to this day with bespoke blends, many paying homage to important dates in their family history.

Released around Father's Day of 2024, Erik Stokkebye's Fathers, Friends & Fire line of pipe tobaccos was developed as a collaboration with Cornell & Diehl, made specifically to celebrate the brotherhood and joy often found while smoking. Regardless of one's relationship, the Fathers, Friends & Fire line of tobacco gives plenty of opportunity to deepen the bonds between smokers, perfect for special occasions or even just the occasion of everyday life. Available in several different blends, this particular mixture is Batch 001, the Virginia Oriental Flake, and it comprises a flake-cut combination of mature Carolina Virginias alongside exotic Oriental tobacco: offering a naturally sweet smoke with a unique room note.

A Pleasant Surprise

June 19, 2024

Product: Erik Stokkebye 4th Generation Fathers, Friends & Fire Batch 001 Virginia Oriental Flake 2oz

Upon tin opening, there's an immediate familiar scent of Sun Bear. On top, there's this smell of something banana-like. Does it translate through the smoke? Maybe, maybe not. I have to smoke more of this to get the flavors down but, this is just my initial thoughts. This particular blend came a bit moist so I let this sit out for around 40 minutes;not the portion i was smoking but I just left the tin open for around an hour before packing up the Savvy(This blend smokes very well in a medium to smallish sized bowl). Char light was sweet and burnt, then tamped and settled the flavors were bright, floral, (think past iterations of Sun Bear plus something new on its own) then bready and sour and creamy. Being this is a "collab", I wonder if and what portion of this is Sytokkebyes or if its just his branding on there and its all C&D tobacco but, I do like both companys a lot and I've had a lot of C&D tobacco of which i'm very familiar with, and I've had quite a few of the Erik Stokkebye blends but, it would be great if I knew what tobaccos Erik's thrown in there beside C&D, as this is a "collab" and like I said, I do like quite a few of the 4th Gen. blends. As I smoked through a bowl I found myself throwing nods here and there, knowing there was something different about this smoke. I like this blend a lot and if I wasn't a Burlaholic and I only smoked Straight Va's or Va blends without burley, I would stock up on this. This is Definately a winner in My book! Although, the winner in your book might not be this. Different strokes for different folks. I only purchased one tin and will continue to enjoy it thoroughly til the end but I probably won't buy anymore as I've still got a few tins of Sun Bear left. No need to over do it. I'd rather strock up on stuff I know for sure I'll get around to smoking. Again, this was a great smoke by two of the best companys around and i'm glad they got together again to put something soothing and flavorful in our pipes. Great job Erik Stokkebye and C&D!! And thanks Smoking Pipes for bringing it home!...Read More
