I decided to open my tin of Dunhill Early Morning Pipe today and give it a try. I sometime have problems with Virginia blends but I have heard so much about this blend I wanted to try it.
I like the label on the tin, lots of colours and nice to look at.
When I opened it I was surprised a bit because it didn’t smell at all like what I expected. I usually don’t like the smell of English style tobacco in the tin but this was mildly pleasant.
The cut is light and fluffy which made its really easy to pack and light. After the char light it only required one relight to finish the bowl.
It smokes pretty smooth and mild and will heat up the pipe if you smoke a bit to aggressive
The description in the ad for this said Virginias and Orientals but there is something else in this mix that adds a bit of spice every now and then which is good because I like that. Maybe a touch of Latakia or Perique? Not sure.
I’m not a big fan of high N tobaccos and this one is mild enough that it could be a good choice in morning or before bed with a cup of Earl Grey for people that high N keeps awake at night.
Overall I liked this and could smoke this anytime of the day no problem. The room note is not unpleasant but likely better smoked outside on the deck.
The only thing I really didn’t like about this blend is after I was finished smoking I could smell a cigarette smoke smell on my hands and my shirt. I don’t like the smell of cigarettes so this was a bummer.
Sorry for the long review. Recommend this to everyone except people that need that high N in their tobacco.
