Winslow Pipe Tobacco No. 2 100g tin

Winslow Pipe Tobacco No. 2 100g Tin is an exotically sweet Danish blend that instantly makes you want to take that first puff: creamy nut liqueur meets caramelised pineapple – warm, fruity and wonderfully ‘dessert-like’, without losing any of its tobacco character. The base consists of Virginia tobaccos in various forms and cut widths, which gives the blend a lively structure and a lovely interplay of natural sweetness and light freshness. Added to this are two varieties of Black Cavendish, a hint of Burley and finely shredded flake, which make the smoke noticeably smoother and rounder. In practice, this means: very easy to pack, burns evenly and is gentle on the palate – a tobacco that appeals to both beginners and experienced connoisseurs alike when they want to treat themselves to a moment of aromatic indulgence.

Exotic depth: Virginia complexity, Cavendish creaminess, flake finish

Winslow No. 2 is particularly harmonious thanks to its components. The multi-layered Virginias provide the natural underlying sweetness and ensure that the blend does not become ‘flat’. Black Cavendish brings a creamy texture to the smoke and reliably carries the flavour, whilst Burley contributes a subtle, nutty dryness that keeps the profile mature. The finely crumbled flake also ensures a more even burn and a longer, more consistent smoke. Aromatically, the seductive blend of creamy nut liqueur and caramelised pineapple clearly takes centre stage: initially soft and sweet, then increasingly full-bodied with a slightly toasty undertone. The room note is, accordingly, a highlight – fruity-sweet and very pleasant, often ‘suitable for social occasions’ and a real bonus when you have guests. Tip: Loosen it up briefly and smoke it at a leisurely pace – this keeps the smoke creamy and allows the pineapple-nut aroma to come through particularly clearly.
