Seattle Pipe Club Rainier Levant

Full English Balkan mixture of Latakia, Turkish Orientals, and Red Virginia

Some of Joe Lankford’s favorite old tobaccos were made by the legendary Drucquer & Sons Ltd in Berkeley, California. While the shop is a distant memory, an ancient tin of Drucquer’s Levant Mixture inspired Joe to create his Rainier Levant blend. This is a Latakia lover’s blend with rare complexity. Rainier Levant is redolent with the richest tobaccos. Aged Turkish and Latakia spiced with a bit of Red Virginia leaf. Joe’s homage to Drucquer & Sons is a celebration of days gone by. But you can enjoy it today.
