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. 

Brand: Peterson

Blended By: STG

Model: Early Morning 

Tobacco Type: Latakia, Oriental, Virginia

Cut: Ribbon

Blend Type: English

Strength: 2 of 5

Room Note: Pleasant

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.

    Underwhelming

    Posted by Verified Customer on 5th Aug 2018

    In my opinion, it's not a bad tobacco, but it didn't live up to the hype. Nice flavor but not as smooth and mellow as I had imagined.

    Great anytime tobacco

    Great smoke, stayed lit and smoked to ash in the base of the pipe. I enjoyed the smell and the taste. This is a great all day smoker.

    Dunhill EMP is the best pipe tobacco that there is.

    Excellent medium English blend

    Posted by Tom E. on 14th Jul 2018

    My first experience with this blend, mild for an English blend with a pleasing taste experience. Normally I do not favor most English blends but I will be placing another bulk order.

    Good smoke

    Posted by Verified Customer on 14th May 2018

    Been going through the Dunhill blends and it's pretty consistent with the others. While as a new pipe smoker it comes across a little strong it is good and worth a try.

    Great smoke

    Posted by Verified Customer on 2nd May 2018

    Purchased this along with some Peterson's Luxury and Cult blood moon as a re-introduction after a few year break. By far the best smoke (for me) out of the three. Smells harsh in the tin but it's got a nice smooth, cool, smoke. The flavor is well-rounded and you don't get anything abrasive in particular. Planning on buying more from Dunhill in the future.

    good tobacco in line with Dunhill

    Posted by Verified Customer on 6th Apr 2018

    This is good tobacco if you like Dunhill that is famous for producing top-notch tobacco. However, beware that Dunhill tobaccos are notorious for their medium to strong punch with a relatively high level of nicotine.
