Clan Aromatic

Clan Original 50g Pipe Tobacco is a distinctive and complex aromatic pipe tobacco created from a remarkable mixture of more than 14 different tobaccos sourced from around the world. Formerly known in the UK as Clan Aromatic, this long-established blend combines numerous tobacco varieties to produce its characteristic mild, layered and aromatic profile.

The complexity of Clan Original Pipe Tobacco comes from its extensive selection of leaf. The blend includes Virginia, Burley, Kentucky, Cavendish, Black Cavendish, Maryland, Perique and Oriental/Turkish tobaccos, among others. Each contributes something different to the overall mixture, creating a tobacco with considerably more complexity than its relatively mild character might initially suggest.

Clan is presented in a convenient ready-rubbed loose cut, meaning the tobacco has already been prepared into loose strands rather than requiring the additional preparation associated with flakes or plugs. Its varied tobacco composition produces a gently sweet, woody and subtly aromatic character with different elements of the blend emerging throughout.

A Complex Blend of More Than 14 Tobaccos

What makes Clan Original Pipe Tobacco particularly distinctive is the sheer variety of tobaccos used in its composition. More than 14 different tobaccos from around the world are brought together to create the blend, with Virginia, Burley, Kentucky, Cavendish, Perique and Oriental tobaccos forming part of its unusually diverse recipe.

Despite this complexity, Clan is traditionally characterised as a relatively mild tobacco. The different leaves contribute layers of natural sweetness, woody depth, spice and aromatic character, while the ready-rubbed presentation provides the familiar loose appearance associated with Clan pipe tobacco.

Presented in a 50g pipe tobacco packet, Clan Original remains one of the most recognisable aromatic pipe tobacco blends available in the UK. Its combination of more than 14 tobaccos, distinctive aroma and complex ready-rubbed mixture gives Clan Original 50g Pipe Tobacco an identity quite unlike a straightforward Virginia, Burley or Cavendish blend.
