We are lucky to have you as an educator in the pipe smoking world. I’m pretty new to pipe smoking and appreciate your complete approach to the new pipe smokers. Thank you, Sir!
EMP has that early morning campfire tin note to me, with oriental incense nuances throughout the smoke…no tea or citrus notes for me usually but there is an underlying sweetness, and that woodsy campfire experience quickly takes a backseat to the orientals. It really wakes up my senses in the morning! It’s a great blend🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

The oriental incense really stood out for me. I’m definitely enjoying this.

I’m fairly new to pipe smoking but this blend is quickly becoming my favourite. I live in Stratford upon Avon England and walking with a bowl of emp through the very historic streets is very humbling. I often sit on the bench opposite the birthplace of William Shakespeare enjoying my pipe.

Peterson has been my favorite for a couple decades now.❤ Opening a brand new tin of Sweet Killarney Is the best smell of any brand I've ever tried.
I love this guy, I am a cigar smoker but just dipping my toe into pipe smoking and this guy has been more than helpful 👍🏻 big love from the Uk 🇬🇧
As a young boy, I was fascinated by the pipes, their forms and the smell, which was aromatic in the air. My uncle was a passionate pipe smoker and he was a real BBQ master and to clean the pipes together with him was the greatest thing for me. He had a strong effect on me and I looked up to him. Somehow something mystical. I always thought that someday I would also indulge in pipe smoking. I both my first pipe on my trip through america and funny enough, it was a cheap Omega Dr. Grabow. I really had to laugh when I heard your story about your grandfather. But I had somehow never found time to deal with it more intensively. Unfortunately, my uncle died this year and it became clear to me how transient everything is. The thought triggered something in me. Peace and contemplation or reflection. Thanks to your videos I was able to combine these concepts with smoking a pipe and it was like an enlightenment for me. Now I have for maybe 1 month, started smoking pipe regulary and I do not want to miss it. About the rating: I ordered the tobacco and first I was surprised, because I would have hardly expected the smell he unfolded. I especially like fruity blends. For me it has something homey, especially in cold wet weather it feels like I am with my friends, family or the scouts at the warming campfire. I love cooking and preparing meat on the grill. While you are standing there by the hot fire, your clothes get soaked with the intense smell of smoke. The next morning when you smell your clothes, that's exactly how this tobacco tastes and smells. Which is why I can follow your description 100%. From me it gives 🔥🔥🔥🔥 A fantastic tobacco for sentimental and memorable moments. Thank you for your valuable content, I can not get enough of it. Keep going. Thank you #muttnchoppiper Greetings from Switzerland
I very much approve of the slow, detailed approach you have to these blend presentations. Brings everyone up to speed, both beginner and experienced.

I have to agree. I've not lit up a pipe for a couple of years or more, and when I used to smoke pipes more often, my technique was always flawed. I never quite burned out a pipe but I must have been close. I'd blast through the bowl like a steam train flying down a mountain. One day I may get back into this and light up again; if and when that day comes, having a recap or reminder of the basic process would definitely help. EMP is one of the unopened tins I have in a dark cupboard, slowly cellaring away, so it may have some nice age on it by the time I open it up. It was not one of my favourites as it seemed a bit bland - I prefer stronger English blends - but I do remember this one being quite Oriental forward, which I appreciate. If I were to light up a well aged tin of EMP now and to pay more attention to my cadence, I could quite possibly see myself enjoying this one rather more than I used to.
This Early Morning blend reminds me of pipe tobacco I bought from a pipe shop in San Bernardino Ca in the early70’s. Really like this it reminds me of my collage days when I first started smoking a pipe. 🤠🤠🤠🤠
👍👍👍👍👍for a classic bled introduced back in 1912 and remained as a top selection for thousands of smokers. Thank you Chris for all your enormous contribution to the pipe smokers all these years!
⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tin Note: Hickory smoke / BBQ sauce Room Note: Tolerable / Pleasant This tobacco was ready to smoke directly from the tin. It Charred-Lit-Embered-Burned-Tamped perfectly and was enjoyable for the duration of the bowl. A Mild to Medium strength that gave notes of campfire, caramel, spicy/floral. Like so many others here I am returning to pipe smoking after a few failed attempts over the years. MCP has put together a great channel here that has helped me to learn to smoke a pipe properly thereby releasing and enjoying the true flavors of tobaccos. This is my first real English blend. I enjoy it very much but hesitate to rate it higher due to my novice palette. Thank you to MCP for putting Blend Club 2023 together. It has introduced me to a variety of tobacco styles and flavors that would have taken me quite some time to discover on my own. The blends are different enough that I can really start to decide what I like and what I don't.

Don't be afraid to rate it higher, your palate is correct, it's a lovely blend.
😊😊😊 this is the second, we’ll call it “serious” blend I’ve tried. It reminds me of tea for some reason. I’m not experienced enough to articulate everything I noticed, but it was “tea” forward for me, with a little smokyness followed up by a peanut buttery taste and finished with a spicyness on my tongue 🤷♂️ doubt that helped anyone, but this is just the beginning of my pipe journey.
🐰🐰🐰🐰. I am finally able to taste tobacco in me pipe. It took a few months to learn to draw easy enough along with packing it correctly so I wasn’t toking it too hard. This is my second tobacco now that I’m enjoying. The tin smell reminds me of Mackinaw Island Michigan… lol. Orientals yes take the driving wheel but I’m certainly get a bit of sweetness in the backseat. Thank you!
I’m not a pipe smoker [in fact, I’ve never smoked anything, in any of its various forms 🤷🏻♂️] that said, I find your videos a relaxing, soothing and introspective experience. Thank you for that! I could listen to this man for hours; whether he’s pontificating on a topic of which I have absolutely ZERO knowledge or experience, or a cover-to-cover narration of the 1982 Sears Christmas Catalog is, to me, immaterial. I am here for it! Hope you’re doing well, and looking forward to your content in 2023.
Loved how you went over the history of the tobacco! I like knowing the background of things, and it unironically makes the smoke more enjoyable for me 😁
👍👍👍👍 As a relatively new pipe smoker, Early Morning Pipe has become one of my favorites. It’s definitely in my top 5. Thank you for another great video. 🙏🏼
excellent smoke, I keep it in stock all the time,😀😀😀😀
😶🌫️😶🌫️😶🌫️😶🌫️. The tin note is light with a little smoke and spice aroma. The moisture level in my tin was perfect. It takes a light very easy and stays lit as long as you pay attention. The flavor is very mild with campfire and the oriental adds a wonderful little spice. When exhaling through my nose I get a citrus, almost orange zest flavor. The room note is light and my wife doesn’t complain about how I smell after smoking it. Great tobacco to try if you haven’t already.
Tried it again today after about a week and it was tasty, easy to smoke , good tasting & reminded me of pipe tobacco I got in SO Calif in 1970 at Poor Richards Pipe shop. 🤠🤠🤠🤠
New sub here, really enjoy the content and have learnt quite a bit. Looking forward to more content.
Thank you for sharing.
I received a tin of Peterson's Early Morning Pipe today. I held off for almost 6 hours before breaking the tin open. I smoked a bowl through a well seasoned Missouri Meerschaum bent Country Gentleman. I found it mild yet rich in tobacco flavor. Don't know the nicotine content but I was lit up a bit. I get why they call it early morning. A big mug of strong black coffee with a squirt of honey and this pipe at 4am on the porch. Out the door with another pipe and a fly rod at 5am. 🤙🤙🤙
So thanks muttnchop, your video is so helpful for us. Have a good smokes..🎉🎉🎉
⚜️⚜️⚜️⚜️ Nice smooth mild tobacco. Great all day smoke. May I add goes great with a cup of coffee in the morning. Big thank you Muttonchop keep up the great work!
I haven"t smoked early morning pipe since 2017. But I smoked a lot of it. I give it a 10
I first started watching you in 2017 I believe just as the new year started, I went down to the local smoke store in my small Canadian town, and bought my first pipe, and a bag of captain blacks white blend. I was instantly hooked on the peacefulness created by the ritualistic packing of my pipe sitting in my chair. Since then I’ve come along. purchasing a couple beautiful peterson pipes, better quality pipe tobacco, and my understanding of flavour profiles. My ritual remains the same, the calming of the mind, the clarity of thinking and the experience I get from my pipes is a luxury for me. These days I rarely get in time for the ritual in my hectic life but lately as the spring thaw comes I find myself coming back to this beautiful state of mind.
Thank you sir!
🪵🪵🪵🪵 super creamy. I am new to pipes (only about 3 months) and so far this is probably my favorite English blend. Very good blend for the new piper
👍👍👍👍It's smooth and subtle flavors is why I like this blend so much. There really is a lot of flavor to me when I just relax and enjoy.
🐓🐓🐓🐓 I love the sweet/sour flavor of the orientals and the subdued presence of the latakia. the virginias add a different sort of sweetness that makes this a very pleasant light english smoke. my advise is to go and get you some!!
Started pipe smoking two years ago, these campfire blends were tuff at first, but really starting to enjoy them just as much if not more than the aromatic ones.
One of my favorites, when I can get it. 😍😍😍😍👍A back up to it is Sutliff Match Sunrise.
:-):-):-):-) This has been wonderful. I purchased a couple of pounds of Match EMP and it does not compare. I pick up the Lat. And the Orientals. I can taste the Virginia tobacco but do not smell it. Fun review and I learned something about the Peterson EMP. I will enjoy this more often. Thank you Muttonchops... Great review...
Man I like this Early Morning tobacco , the flavor & taste are great. It is so much like Maltese Falcon with taste great too! 👍👍👍👍👍😎😎
💨💨💨💨 (4/5) - I really enjoy this blend as a light English. With the name I do enjoy it with a cup of coffee in the morning.
👍👍👍👍 thank you for sharing how to open the tin. This was the first tobacco that I smoked. I just took up pipe smoking. When I received the tin, I could not figure out how to open it. I had to do some online research😂. My first exposure to pipe smoking was when I worked at a grocery store. A manager there smoked some cheap nasty tobacco. This tobacco was nice and mellow-not like that nasty stuff. I’m looking forward to the next review!
😉😉😉😉. smooth and mellow. smoked my first tin in 2005 and still going on
Thanks!
😊😊😊😊 Just started again after 50yrs, no really! And this is my first tobacco since then. Used to smoke Ogdens Gold Block as it was readily available on my Royal Navy ships😊
❤❤❤❤All Time smoke. Creamy indeed. I get a graham cinammon every time.
Glad to see you back!
🍁🍁🍁🍁 only my third English blend but it’s a soft, comforting smoke that’ll make it my go to sunrise with coffee blend.
⭐️⭐️⭐️ one of the first tobacco’s recommended to me when I started smoking
🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊 Early Morning Pipe is a good light english blend.
Hey Chop. I started watching your content 6 years ago when I was 16. I had a fascination with pipe smoking, but being underage I couldn’t make that decision. I am now in my 20s and I have rediscovered your content. I may be a pipe smoker yet.
Excellent
Great video for newbies learning how to open the tin. The 'cupcake-like' paper' does have a purpose. Spread it and use it as a tray to collect droppings. I enjoy Early Morning once to twice a week with morning coffee. It's a great smoke.💨💨💨💨
Early morning pipe is my number 1 pipe tobacco. I just ordered me a new tin along with My Mixture 965 from Peterson to give it a try. Thanks for the video.
As a new pipe smoker, I hesitate to rate but I will. I have purchased and received every tobacco on the list except October. 😃😃😃😃 is my rating as I will definitely buy it again. As I have learned the breath method, this tobacco is smooth, almost silky. I would definitely try this one. Thank you for the blend club, this is a lot of fun. I appreciate you going over how to load the pipe again, the most frustrating part for me at the moment. Looking forward to the next video!
🔥🔥🔥 This definitely is a good mild and smooth English. Definitely not strong on the Latakia. Good for a beginner pipe smoker. Always excellent taste. But coming from a person who smokes Captain Earle's Ten Russians, Captain Earle's Stimulus Package, C&D Pirate Kake, and the like. It's definitely not in my wheelhouse. But it's a good one to enjoy from time to time.
An excellent tobacco for a newer smoker curious about English blends. It’s a bit too Oriental forward and Latakia light to be one of my favorites, but I still enjoy it on occasion. Like all the Peterson/Dunhill blends, it has a noticeable nic hit. 🍸🍸🍸🍸
👍👍👍 New blend to me. My tin is new, so a bit wet. I need to spread out a pipe full on a piece of paper to dry 10-15 minutes. Smoked in a Turkish meerschaum pipe. A bit harsh, but I may have been trying to keep it lit. Hint of creaminess. Nicotine was a bit high but I may have been puffing harder to keep it lit. The jury's still out on whether it stays in my rotation.
EMP was my typical morning-with-coffee smoke for a long time. Then I tried GL Pease Chelsea Morning. EMP is still great, but Chelsea is just something else and perfect for a morning wakeup with a cup of Joe. I give it: 😍😍😍

🐓 🐓 🐓 🐓 classic must try for new pipers.
My first time participating in Blend Club. Fairly new pipe smoker. I smoked 3 bowls so Far, 1st bowls I was not really getting anything from it. 2nd bowl was better, but the 3rd bowl was so enjoyable. Not sure it makes sense but it was buttery smooth. Not sure what I was expecting but I plan on keeping this on hand. It’s got me thinking about cellaring. As far as a rating I give it 😊😊😊 only because my lack of experience to compare it to. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘still relatively new to the pipe but this is currently my favorite
You my friend are a master you have taught me everything I no about smoking and cleaning my pipes am so glad I found you're channel long time ago god bless 🙏 you all the best from Scottish Highlands 👍
😀😀😀😀😀 10 year old tin, soft smooth smoke and can be a bit strong on the nic levels. I love the Virginia in this one.
😍😍😍😍😍 This is my absolute favorite. I love this blend and I smoked this tabaco every day.
Heck yeah.
Hope to see a vid from you today. I’ve actually remembered that it’s National Pipe Smoking Day!
Excellent, excellent vid Chris. Thanks a lot. Have a great week.
🏅🏅🏅🏅I also love english blends that are lighter and sweeter, and this blend nails that category nicely. Great with on the porch with coffee on a cool, rainy morning such as this one.
🐐🐐🐐🐐 always like to see your content one of the best!!! EMP on of my favs
❤❤❤❤❤ this is one of my desert island blends. Just what i like on a cold, early morning with a steamy cup of coffee watching the world waking up. Another great video! Thanks 🙏
🍀🍀🍀🍀 Love this blend! In 2018 stocked up thinking it might be gone. Light and sweet. Like you said, a great campfire smell with the orientals up front.
Thank you for the Blend review MCP! I always learn something each time I watch. You have been my Jedi Master since I started the hobby last year. Bless ya my man and see you next video.
Cheers! Very nostalgic for me, reminds me of being out hunting. Some of the more seasoned hunters smoked this blend regularly. Brings me right back.
My friend and longtime pipe smoker introduced me to EMP as my first smoke some twenty years ago. He sure knew his English blends. It’s been one of my favorites ever since 😊😊😊😊 Thanks for your great videos.
🤠🤠🤠🤠….great smoke
❤❤❤❤❤ perfect blend for all day long.
One of my favourite blends. I start most days with a bowl of EMP. EMP, My mixture 965 and Night Cap are the Peterson holy trinity of pipe tobacco -IMO ;)

❤❤❤❤🤍 4/5 - EMP is one of my favorite English blends and makes up part of my regular rotation. I like that the latakia is noticeable, but doesn't overpower the more subtle Oriental flavors. Despite the name, I find this one smokeable all day long.
I have recently returned to the pipe after an over 20 year hiatus, so it is nice doing a deeper dive this time around The bowl of EMP I had first was using a cheap Chinese-made pipe with a metal insert in the chamber. The Latakia bout smoked my socks off!! Then I tried again in my hardwood billiard. Much less smokiness. This morning I tried with my corncobb and a cup of coffee. Not only was there a light amount of smoke, I picked up on the sweet/sour flavors from the orientals. The buttery notes flowed through out the bowl. Very nice blend that will be a nice addition to the rotation. 🪵🪵🪵🪵
Finally a pleasure to rate a tobacco with you which is also available in Europe. EMP is a blend I discovered very lately. Since then it is a solid companion. I can't discover the campfire attitude, but IMHO you find this taste mostly in Peterson/Dunhill 965 which is my beloved English Mixture. I smoke Latakia blends mainly during the cold period, fall and winter. I agree with you and I give 🙂🙂🙂🙂. All the best and happy puffin'.
😽💨😽💨😽 this is a five emoji smoke for an oriental forward light English. It doesn’t get better than this.
This has got to be the best blend club yet. I've been watching you for years, and blend club, while informative, started to feel robotic, scripted and repetitive. I hope you continue to speak on pipe history and have story times during these reviews. It really keeps me interested. Thank you so much for all you've done for our community. We love you!🩷

Is this real??
Early Morning was on of my favorites and it has a nice oriental nuances and well blended flavors. As a tobacco it is good and a good introduction to mild English. 🙂🙂🙂
🎉🎉🎉🎉 I too am a Oriental tobacco fan . It has a unique flavor that I didn’t find in the cigar world but I’m glad I found it here in the pipe world. I would strongly recommend this blend for you non aromatic pipers.
Must definetly "Campfire" taste and smell because of the Latakia. Abrazo !
Just got back into pipe smoking glad to see your channel is still here best and most knowledgeable on KZread keep up the good work 👍🏼
🐔🐔🐔🐔 One of my favorites and always in my regular rotation. Balance is the the key with this one. Tangy orientals, sweet, bready Virginias with just enough latakia to add a nice umami note to round it out.
Wonderful presentation.
Thank you for the insightful reviews!
💪💪💪💪 loved the tobacco , no tongue bite and awesome smoke during the rainy season 👌 Greetings from south africa 🇿🇦
😁😁😁😁 This was the very first blend I ever smoked (in 2018). I loved it and still do. Stocked up! love the smoothness of the blend. BTW, the second blend I ever tried was DH Nightcap (and loved it as well). Thanks for all you do for the YTPC!
I smoke 1-2 pipes a week, mainly cherry tobacco of some sort, I got EMP to gain experience in English blends and its in my opinion as easy introduction as you can get. Its campfire taste for me is best kept for misty, rainy mornings. 😂😂😂
🐈⬛🐈⬛ It tastes like hot air to me. That might be due to me having a tin of nightcap open during the same time as when I was smoking early morning though...
🔥🔥🔥🔥 4 Emojis! Wasn't sure if I'd settle between 3 or 4 on this, but I think it deserves the better. This is my first oriental, so I have a hard time picking out those flavors since the campfire note is so prominent for me. The spice in this is really pleasant for an every now and then smoke. For me, it really starts to lose it's punch if you smoke it too often, the flavors become muted. But smoke it after some sweeter virginia or an aromatic and it pops right back up again!
😀😀😀😀I really like this blend! I found 3 tins of Dunhill EMP in a brick-and-mortar & I’ve been nursing them. I confess that I don’t enjoy a pipe in the morning, though; I like one later in the day, after dinner. Unless I’m out in the woods camping…then it’s any time!
👍👍👍👍👍one of my favorites, always up in my stock! Nice clean smoke and perfect with coffee. To me, I get a hint of toast and subtle smokiness. Love it!
💜💜💜💜 This was a excellent smoke!!! This was sweet and creamy. What I would say Oriental forward with the Latakia coming in and out as the bowl burns. Moisture was excellent but I did experiment with letting it dry out little more which seemed to enhance everything about it. When I first started to smoke pipes which has been about a year now this was one of the first tins I purchased. At that time not understanding the nature of such a blend it did seem harsh! However, at this point smoking some Balkans and stronger Latakia blends I can really appreciate this a lot better. Oddly at times towards the middle of the bowl I would get this buttery flavor! Since the list for this years Blend Club I actually have been smoking this every morning in a Estate Peterson B 42 with some coffee or tea. I will be getting several more tins for the future. Even at different times during the day or evening this has been a go to!!! Thanks Muttnchop!!!
👍👍👍 for taste 👍👍👍👍 for burn quality 👍👍 for smell 👍👍👍👍👍 for the video Only my opinion. Everyone is different
As a new pipe smoker, I really like Early Morning Pipe. I haven't had a pipe in several weeks due to the cold weather but after watching this and we're breaking 30 degrees, I think I'll go outside and have a bowl. Thank you for all of your videos! Cheers!
Learning so much from my unofficial tobacco pipe mentor. Subscribed!
☕️☕️☕️☕️ Great with a cup of coffee on a chilly morning sitting on the porch. EMP and Plum Pudding are my go to English blends, with Plum Pudding slightly edging this one out as my favorite.
Thank you so much for your thorough teaching methods. I just started pipe-smoking a year ago last month. I still can’t pick out the flavor notes. Be blessed, my friend. John
Glad to see u man :)
👍👍👍👍 Got my first tin of Early Morning Pipe as well as GL Pease Montgomery. I have been enjoying as a morning smoke for a couple of weeks and truly enjoy with my second cup of coffee. Truly a great blend!
🙂🙂🙂🙂 Newbie here I just finished my emp so didn't get to smoke along (more on the way). I have a limited sense of smell so I miss out on all those wonderfully subtle notes but to me the taste of this is amazing as has been mentioned it is the perfect accompaniment to a fresh coffee and sitting watching the world go by in the early morn.
