Fribourg & Treyer Wingate Mixture - Pipe Tobacco (50g)
Fribourg & Treyer were one of the most renowned independent snuff houses in the United Kingdom, widely celebrated for their exceptional craftsmanship. Since 1720, Fribourg and Treyer meticulously perfected their unique snuff blends behind the historic bow-windowed shop located in Haymarket, where their original creations consistently captivated not only the local London crowds but also a diverse range of international visitors. The illustrious client list included notable figures such as the famous Shakespearean actor David Garrick, King George IV, and Beau Brummell.
Unfortunately, despite its rich history, the business tragically closed its doors in 1981; however, the Grade II* listed building at 34 Haymarket remains as a testament to their legacy. Today, Wilsons of Sharrow in Sheffield has taken up the mantle, producing snuff and tobacco products under the esteemed Fribourg & Treyer brand.
The 50g tin of Fribourg & Treyer Wingate is a finely crafted ribbon cut mixture that is expertly blended from a combination of Virginia, Burley, Black Cavendish, Latakia, and Perique leaf, all without any added flavouring, allowing the natural, rich flavours of each constituent tobacco to truly shine through. It results in a rich and flavourful tobacco experience that beautifully merges the inherent sweetness of the Virginia’s, the nutty and woody notes that characterize the Burley, the raisin and plum, as well as pepper notes contributed by the Perique, intertwined with the smooth, smoky, and wooden essence of the Latakia. The overall profile is a complex and rich blend, which falls within the medium to full spectrum regarding taste, strength, and nicotine content. This blend promises a cool and satisfying smoke, ensuring that it remains pleasant and smooth, even when smoked at a quicker pace.
