Description Ref # 351

Germain & Son commenced manufacturing tobacco back in 1820. A family business located in Jersey boasting perfect climatic controlled conditions.

The experience gained by succeeding generations in the art of blending has produced the range of fine individual tobaccos available today. Their new factory is situated on the site of the original premises facing the harbour of St Helier from whence, 180 years ago, Jersey-built schooners sailed to many parts of the world, some returning with cargoes of leaf tobacco for Germain's factory.

The name of this tobacco originates from the early days when all tobaccos were pressed into cakes before cutting.Four types of Virginian tobaccos are blended with Cavendish and a specially prepared Black Tobacco.

The complete blend is then flavoured in accordance with a 70 year old formula to produce a honey sweet smoking tobacco with a unique aroma.

“We have been reliably informed that the highly sort after Penzance is made using the same blend as the 1820 mixture. Therefore the 1820 is the closest Tobacco you will get to match Penzance in the UK. This tobacco is a ready rubbed mixture. The Flake version released in 2019 should be even closer.”

Please note: Pipe used is for illustration purposes only.

Tasting Notes

A powerful blend of Latakia, Orientals and Virginias, a treat for any Latakia junie.

The tobacco has an oaky aroma from the packet. Once lit the tobacco is alive with the creamy nature of the Orientals, a wonderful oaky colouring from the Virginias and rich BBQ pungency from the latakia.

The Latakia takes centre stage with the others creating the mood and backing.
