J.F. Germain: PLUM CAKE MIXTURE 50g

JFGPCM

Notify me when this product is available:

The name of this pipe tobacco originates from the early days, when all pipe tobaccos were pressed into cakes before cutting. Four types of Virginia pipe tobaccos are blended with Cavendish and a specially-prepared Black pipe tobacco. The complete blend is then flavoured in accordance with a 70-year-old formula, to produce a honey-sweet smoking pipe tobacco.

What I really like about this tobacco is the way that it burns cool and produces a good volume of smoke. For a rather moist tobacco, it burns surprisingly well. Mind you, I followed the advice of others: "always let your tobacco dry for longer than you think is necessary". I also used my Missouri Meerschaum Patriot corn cob pipe as recommended by other online reviewers and I wasn't disappointed. I was expecting something more like McClelland's Best of Show but I found it more flavoursome than aromatic, and without the often-overpowering vanilla scent. If you like a rum flake or other rich wine-flavoured tobacco, I believe this is worth a try. It will certainly be a staple tobacco for me.
