Following some of the favourite blends on here, I look forward to trying , particularly, Warhorse , Bengal slices & Edward G. Robinson if I get to the States again,amongst some other Seattle club blends & Frogmorton,
I have been browsing Standard Tobacco , McClelland Tobacco Company & Cornell & Diehl, of the three artisan websites, a brief amateur overview of the websites is as follows,:-
C & D their website is here link the oldest of the three blenders have a roots going back to the 19th century and are part of the Laudisi company , C & D has an extensive range of blends , with a family like cultural feel, and the tone of the website is functional with earthy tobacco leaf colours & images and a mellow folksey look yet a cosmopolitan feel and fine antique graphics and bright images of the colourfully labelled tins of their range. The names of the blends are classic & traditional with the American ancestry of tobacco.The site is easy to navigate yet has some interesting coves to engage your attention, with a decent overview of tobacco types and processes. There are links to Facebook , Intagram & YouTube channels full of news , images and information.
MTC their website is here. link goes back to the 70's, and has a wide range of blends, the website is practical with a homely craftsman like feel, with earthy tobacco images & colours , the blends are imaged in open tins of folksey or culturally labelled tins with differing attention grabbing fonts. Navigating the product catalogue you are engaged by pleasant seasonal & exotic images of the American roots of the blends. There is an overview of the component tobacco's to inform the newcomer. A practical site to navigate. You can join a mailing list for MTC.
ST website is here. link and is the new kid on the block compared to the other two it has a contemporary feel of sociable photos of gentleman enjoying their pipe smoking beneath the clear text sharing the good news of the return of some great classic blends. The site is elegant & friendly to travel. They have an rich Facebook page of images and events.
Excuse me if I have not done justice in my little introduction to these artisan companies , I hope they post may be of some interest.
