Back in late 2017, Dunhill announced they would cease producing their famous and much loved pipe tobacco range, which left many devoted fans with a heavy heart. Two years on, Peterson have boldly taken the torch and relit the fire without altering the recipes, to bring back some old friends.

Peterson Early Morning Pipe

Peterson Early Morning Pipe is Latakia, Oriental and Virginia, blended to suit the morning hours of the day when you’re sipping your first warm drink of the day. Is it coffee or tea for you? This pipe tobacco has been waking up the palates of pipe smokers around the world for well over half a century! The manufacture may have changed hands a few times over the years, the original brand owner, Dunhill may have dropped it but it’s still here and going strong, with new owner Peterson. Peterson and blending partner, STG have not changed the recipe this time around, so you can experience all the same rousing flavours you used to.

The tobacco is ribbon cut, which leads to a straightforward packing of the pipe. Mostly brown and tan in colour though there is Latakia in here, it is a small proportion. You’re given a gentle waking up with mildly sweet Virginia, slightly dry, woody Orientals and an undertone of smoky wood from the Latakia. Early Morning Pipe is an apt name. Breakfast smoking is a delight.
