John Cotton's Double Pressed Burley & Kentucky 2 sealed tins

John Cotton's Double Pressed Burley is a fantastic choice for Burley-lovers, but also for people who may have tried unflavored Burley blends before and didn't care for them. This blend starts with superb Burley that's mixed with just enough naturally-sweet Virginia to counterbalance the earthy sourness of the Burley. Then, a bit of dark-fired leaf is added for smokiness and spice. These tobaccos are pressed and sliced into flakes. Then, these flakes are tumbled out into a chunky ribbon, allowed to breathe, put into a mold, and re-pressed into a crumble cake. This deepens and enriches the flavor while softening any sharp flavors

John Cotton's is a classic brand that's been delighting pipe fans for years, but the double-pressed series represents a revolutionary change of pace for John Cotton's and the pipe tobacco industry as a whole. It starts with dark-fired Kentucky and Viginia tobaccos pressed & sliced into flakes, but here's where it gets different: The flakes are tumbled out into a ribbon and allowed to breathe for a while before being re-pressed into a crumble cake. The secondary fermentation caused by this process creates an intense tin aroma and deep, rich flavor unlike anything else on the market, without any bite or sharp edges.

Both sealed tins with a few years of age on them.
