J F Germain’s & Sons are one of the last true British pipe tobacco blenders. Based in Jersey they have been producing the finest quality pipe tobaccos since 1820. Germain’s pipe tobacco is notoriously difficult to obtain as demand exceeds supply so buy it when available.

Presented in a 50og bag Germain’s Royal Jersey Uncle Tom’s Mixture pipe tobacco is ribbon cut and can be loaded straight into the bowl. To fully appreciate the flavour and taste we recommend that the mixture is smoked at a slow pace to

• prevent the tobacco burning hot which will impair the taste and aroma,
• cause the pipe to overheat potentially causing the dreaded tongue bite.

Germain’s Royal Jersey Uncle Tom’s mixture is also available to buy in a 50g tin.
