Product: Kramer's Father Dempsey 50g
I must first say I love English blends and I love latakia. This tobacco has both of those and it is amazing. No cool smoke need few relights and I love the smoky taste of the latakia and the taste of the orientals. I've heard some say it has a str... Read More

I've been smoking a pipe for 50 years. Father Dempsey is by far the finest tobacco I have ever smoked. I only wish I had found it many years ago.

Product: Kramer's Father Dempsey Bulk
This is truly lovely English blend. I would recommend it to those looking for a replacement for the original Frog Morton.. I really love this tobacco -- mildly sweet, but you know there is latakia in there. That is comes is bulk is quite a bonus.
Best English Blend

If you are an English blend lover, this will take you back to the first time you fell in love with English blends. Smokes incredibly cool and smooth from beginning to end. Will definitely move this in to my top rotation.

一款味道恬淡的轻L
May 12, 2021
Product: Kramer's Father Dempsey 50g
这款神父我拿到第一时间就打开品尝了,打开并不会有重拉草的皮革味,反而带着一股酸梅的甜味,点燃十分简单,前段味道会重一些,过鼻会较为刺激,到了中段会开始放缓刺激性,犹如一位老者的轻声絮叨,后段会返回初段一般的浓烈口感,但是依然会用轻微的过鼻感来提醒你这是一款好草。整体感觉就像是经历了一场小型交响乐,序曲前奏高潮尾声各尽其职,其中奶香和甜味就像主乐手一般完美融入其中但你又能时刻发现他的存在!4星并不能说他不够好,主要是这款烟的浓度还是比较低,喜欢轻L草的朋友不能错过。
非常完美的L草

Product: Kramer's Father Dempsey 50g
Glad I only purchased 1oz bag. I found this to be quite flat and mildly flavorful. I was expecting something more Latakia forward from reviews both here and online, but found mostly Virginia and very little Latakia - a little bummed out

Truly remarkable tobacco. I find it similar to Dunhill 965, but the Latakia does come through a little bit more on this one. Tons of great flavors in this blend. Plan on ordering many more ounces of this one.

Really pleasant tobacco

Product: Kramer's Father Dempsey 50g
I really enjoyed this blend. It kind of gets better throughout the smoke in my opinion. It could be an all day smoke or just an occasional change of pace. The Latakia is definitely not overwhelming but still present and the smoky flavor is perfect.

刚开始几斗没觉得好,多抽了几斗发现这草燃烧好,湿度适中几乎不用醒草可以直接填。一斗到底嘴里没有杂味,干净清爽。淡L草,没有965那种很香浓的L草味,但是柔和,香味中规中矩,过鼻力道适中。值得尝试。

体验了2oz罐装后又购买了16oz的散草,更划算,整体风味一致,劲道中等偏强一点,拉草风味醇厚,从入口到过喉再过鼻,淡淡的刺激感,从点火到结束层次变化明显越来越重,但是过程很请问,不会很突然,是我想要的风味,每种不足是缺少一点柔滑的感觉,所以4颗星。 相信它会成为喜欢拉草风味的都有长期必备的口粮!

Taste is consistent through the entire smoke. Like taking a bite of soft wood, mildly sweet, hint of spice that does not wear out your pallet. Acceptable nicotine hit for a daily smoker. Burns to a soft white ash. My favorite English.
Love the smell & tatse!!!!

Classic and traditional English blend with plenty of oak, leather, spice and camo fire. One of the best bang for your buck English blends. Bulk tobaccos like this made me begin to stear away from paying for tins and marketing. Absolutely great value ... Read More

Product: Kramer's Father Dempsey Bulk
Latakia forward English with some rough edges. Has a deep complexity that is highlighted when smoked leisurely. Not top-shelf English, but a fantastic value and a satisfying blend to have on-hand. Recommended.

This blend is a good smoke fresh, but with some age on it, this blend is pure bliss to smoke. The Virginia’s and orientals age to perfection, taking on a sweet and Smokey profile. Pleasant aftertaste, very low nicotine level in my opinion.
One of the best English blends

This was one of the first English blends I tried and it's still one of the best. Latakia forward and incredibly flavorful. Highly recommend

I found this to be a little too Latakia heavy for my liking, I suspect if you are a cooler climate smoker it will serve you better because this type of blend does seem to perform better with cooler temps, unfortunately in Fl. we don't get many Lataki... Read More

Kind of a lat bomb but still mild to medium bodied. I could smoke this all afternoon but not all day. The Virginias have notes of tangy lemon and citrus, grass, and hay. The Orientals are in third place with a floral and sour, nutty, earthy, pepper n... Read More

I had never tried this tobacco before but because of the good reviews gave it a try. This is good stuff. I really enjoyed the mild to medium smoke. I am normally a burley type of guy so the flavor was much different, but loved it.

I am liking all of Kramers Blends so far and this is my favourite of them. FD is a mild, smooth, sweet balanced blend with a pleasing room note. There is so much to enjoy here I stocked up on some.

I’m just now getting into English blends, but this one is great! It smokes cool, and it tastes very good. There’s a slight hint of sweetness and the Latakia is present but not in your face. This blend is very pleasant and natural tasting.
Great Flavor, but Burns Hot AF and Difficult to Control

Father Dempsey is one I wanted to love but it is nearly impossible to enjoy because of how hot it smokes. I purchased a few oz. in bulk, and it came a little wet. Naturally, I thought that should explain why it smoked so hot. I dried it to perfect... Read More

Keep making this stuff - for an English blend under $10, I'm not sure it gets much better than Father Dempsey. Put this on your alert radar because its a peaty/smokey delight that is a perfect medley of latakia/oriental/virginia.

From the Hollywood heyday when pope smoking was very common. Medium English blend that must be tried once as its unlike anything I have smoked. Mild to mediun and a gentle room note (for an English blend)

Father Dempsey! That's who! Fantastic English. Great latakia forward pouch note and smooth flavour. Mine was perfect to smoke right from the bag. No bite and clouds of luxurious smoke. Get ready to confess, Father Dempsey is best!

So far, I have tried seven different English blends by Dunhill, Comoy's, S&G, F&K, P Stokkebye. Father Dempsey blend is by far, my favorite blend-pleasant tin note, smooth taste without tongue bite.

When I first opened the bag this came in I was a little concerned and thought about putting it up until the fall. Gave it a try and it's a smooth and very good smoke, but slow and steady wins the race with this one. Puff to fast and you'll get bit.
Wow! Father Dempsey sure had it good!

Mild, no bite and burns cool. Tin aroma is nice, but the smoke is even better. The next order will be in bulk. In my top three for an every day smoke.

Expected to be harsh(er), but found it to be quite pleasant. And smoky is the right word for it, in the pouch and pipe. No bite, decent after-taste.

I am new to pipe smoking. I have discovered that I like English blends and up to this point Dunhill 965 has been my favorite. This blend is now my favorite. Smooth, sweet, smoky. I will be ordering more of this blend.
