About This Pipe Tobacco

Manufactured in a century-old brick building in picturesque Lauenburg, Germany, Dan pipe tobacco has gained quite a worldwide reputation among smokers, with a wide variety of blends and cuts on offer. Andreas Mund became the successor in charge of production when master blender Jürgen Westphal retired, and is assisted by Heiko Behrens as well as Michael Apitz of Dan Pipe.

Part of the American History series of pipe mixtures, Old Ironsides from Dan Tobacco celebrates the oldest battleship in the U.S. Navy, the USS Constitution or "Old Ironsides." A Latakia lover's dream, it offers a high percentage of Cypriot Latakia, complemented by Dark-Fired Kentucky, Perique, and Virginia varietals. Pressed and aged for twelve weeks, it's then cut into flakes — the perfect homage to America's tobacco tradition.

As Deep as The Oceans and as Bold as The Men that Sailed them

Like the USS Constitution herself, this is my flagship. Of the tobaccos I've known over the years, this is my favorite. Bold jerky, peppercorn, applewood campfire ash, and plum/raisn. She's an adventure. Much like a ship bucking a sea swell, she starts hard, but once the initial kick is gone, she finishes calm and soothing. Warms the soul on a cold, wet winter day. Enjoy with an Islay single malt or a hot cup of black coffee around a campfire or in the shadow of a bright lighthouse beacon....Read More

I went into my old haunt looking for an alertative to nightcap because f**k STG...I was steered toward this. I read the reviews, and i was cautiously optimistic. Its rare I've seen a tobacco get this thorough of a glazing in the reviews, but...my brothers in briar, I am deeply, madly in love.
r>Rubbed out and stuffed in my oxford half bent Dublin, I fired it up and instantly knew it was going to be a good time. Smoked cool to the tongue, though that pipe has a tendency to get hotter than average in the bowl. Haven't figured out why. Anyway, sipping some cold brew yunnan black tea, and watching a very electrically active storm brewing a few miles to the south, was the perfect set and setting for this smoke.

This is a desert island blend for me. I will be picking up...just so many tins along the way. Truly, if you are a latakia lover, if you love nightcap but dont want to contribute to the evil empire, if you love Penzance but dont feel like fighting over it like black Friday... in my humble opinion, this is better than both. And I love those two. Get some. Have a schmoke. Fall in love like I did.

This is a smoking good blend that has everything you want in a good english cake. Smokey, sweet, floral, barnyard with a side of Nicotine sweats! Who could ask for more! Get it today, smoke it tomorrow and then wait 6 months for it to come back in stock. This is one of those tobaccos. Don’t just buy one tin you will likely slap yourself later. But don’t buy so many that your wife slaps you either. I know, life is full of hard choices....Read More

I am almost certain this is the best pipe tobacco i have ever had. I am an english lover but this really was the first of the family where the orientals really jumped out at me. The addition of Kentucky works so so well. So much velvety flavor. This is eating Texas BBQ while sitting in a busy street market in Istanbul with a camp fire off in the distance. I need to buy several more tins of this to store in the bunker....Read More

Truly exquisite smoke. I love Latakia, even smoking it by itself. My go to has always been Mississippi Mud. This stuff is now replacing it as my #1.
