Peterson Early Morning Pipe Tobacco (Formally Dunhill)

Product Description
Specifications
Reviews

Early Morning Pipe by Peterson is considered a standard of measure for what a light English blend should be by a large number of experienced pipers. The flavor is sour, sweet, and tangy more than smoky. Because of the balance of the constituent tobaccos, the smoker is able to discern subtle flavors.

What is in it?

This blend is an English mixture which has been pressed and stoved. This blend uses the following tobaccos.

Latakia: Cyprian Latakia is present in a small amount.

Oriental: The Oriental tobacco seems to be mostly Turkish.

Virginia: The Virginia here seems to be of the Red and Lemon varieties.

What does it smoke like?

Early Morning Pipe is considered a benchmark English blend by many. This is a lighter flavor than you may find in some other blends. No one component is the center of attention here. The blend is flavorful, and it seems to be very balanced and well rounded. The taste is dry in the same manner as some wines are dry. Since the latakia is very lightly added, one should expect a sweet and tangy flavor with very little dark smokiness. A consistent blend that could be smoked all day, this would make an ideal introduction to English blends. Similar blends would include Presbyterian Mixture and SG Squadron Leader.

How to prepare it?

Peterson uses a beautiful medium ribbon cut for many of their blends. This loads into a pipe very easily. A brief drying is recommended but the tobacco is certainly smokable as is. Use a lighter pack for maximum flavor, and tamp at regular intervals.

Subtle and Familiar

This tobacco pairs well with coffee. It has a sweetness that reminds me of my Great Grandma smoking her Marlboro Reds. The nostalgia hit was enough for me to say I may just get this again. However, it was just missing that "Wow Factor" to give it a perfect score. Would recommend.

Love this tobacco

Posted by Unknown on 7th Jun 2024

This is one of my favorites. An easy, light smoke with great flavor and a nice buzz that allows me to still be sharp for work, which for me requires a lot of mental focus. What Im tasting with my admittedly amateur pallet. A sour that is a bit savory and leaves me wanting more. Some bitter earthiness and some peppery back end. Well rounded. Is a regular smoke for me since trying it.

On the recommendation of experts on YouTube

This was recommended by more than one of the pipe smoking professors that I follow online. It is as advertised. Very pleasant morning smoke. Not overly flavored and doesn't burn to hot with breathing technique. For me it seemed higher in nicotine than other brands that I smoke. A great smoke overall, you won't go wrong if you try it.
