About This Pipe Tobacco

St. Bruno was originally conceived in the 1890s by Thomas Ogden, a businessman who had started a tobacco shop in 1860 along Park Lane in Liverpool, England. Within a few years, Ogden opened several other shops throughout Liverpool, and after seeing how successful his retail operation was, Ogden decided to venture into manufacturing, establishing his first factory in 1866. By 1890, Ogden owned six small factories and a snuff mill. Since its beginnings, St. Bruno has become a staple pipe tobacco, with Mac Baren taking over production in 2006 and purchasing the blend completely in 2015.

As a pipe tobacco, St. Bruno features smooth Virginias and smoky Dark-Fired Kentucky, all steam pressed and sliced into thin flakes — with this version, then, rubbed out before being packaged. It's topped with subtle floral and citrus notes for a delightful character that complements the natural tobacco without drifting fully into Aromatic territory.

Product: St. Bruno Ready Rubbed 1.75oz
Very bland to me. Probably won’t smoke much more of this. Just my opinion though
Excellent with no arguments.

When someone smokes Broken Flake for the first time, they shouldn’t rush to write something negative about the product. You need to have long-term experience with tobacco to truly appreciate it. Honestly, if this brand were the only tobacco on earth, it would be enough to satisfy all real pipe smokers. It’s the real deal—Mac Baren brands are no joke....Read More
It’s absolutely perfect as a daily driver

Product: St. Bruno Ready Rubbed 1.75oz
This blend easily deserves a 5/5 recommendation, but I’m only giving it a 3.5/5, and it all comes down to the price. It’s supposed to be a daily driver, but at $17.55 a pouch, it’s completely unfit for everyday smoking. At this price point, there are far better options out there, and no reason to settle for this....Read More

Product: St. Bruno Ready Rubbed 1.75oz
This was a regular staple in my blend rotation, but the price increases are absolutely insane for 1.75 oz at 18 dollars is crazy..

Best of luck to those who enjoy this blend, Glad i stocked up on pouches before all the craziness occurred.

Product: St. Bruno Ready Rubbed 1.75oz
I bought this and dried it out probably too much. Bone dry. Is it possible I lost a lot of the promised flavors because of that? Probably. I smell the dark fired in the pouch when I opened it so it must be there. But I don’t taste it at all. Definitely no floral notes that are described. All I can taste is a mediocre Virginia flavor. That’s it. Is my palate shot or do they not put much dark fired in this?...Read More
