MATCH Early Morning (New Name - Match Sunrise)

Enjoy the blend. Not biting like some aromatic types

My favorite so far before breakfast and watching the sun come up before the rush if the day begins

Taste very much like the original.

This reminds me of Lane 1Q or Borkum Riff. To my palate, it is NOT a match to Early Morning Pipe. I'm smoking them side by side for comparison. It's not terrible, but it tastes like an aromatic, not EMP. Thus, the lower rating. I'm going to let it sit a while and see if it settles down a bit. If it doesn't, I'll give it to my nephew who likes 1Q and Riff. Other reviewers like it just fine and that's awesome. This is how it is for me, your mileage may vary.

An excellent match. I have been smoking EMP for years as the first pipe of the day I have found the flavor and smoothness faithful to the original.

Love it best pipe tobacco to start the day

This is the smoothest most flavourful first pipe of a morning i could ask for. Then to be able to purchase it in bulk makes me a happy pipe smoker.

I recently bought four 2oz samples from you , all are excellent. The “Balkan” wants a touch more spice up front, the nightcap wants just a shade more latikia, “965” and “early morning “ are great. I always test new tobacco in a thin walled pipe for heat , you passed the test. Also nothing but a little white ash, no soggy Dottie. Keep it up and give your blender a raise!!!

Great alternative to Peterson’s Early Morning Pipe. Much smoother and more mellow than Peterson’s. When I opened the bag I was worried because this didn’t smell like the original but upon smoking it I got the same flavors I know a love. Definitely will be keeping this around for my daily morning smoke.

As described, this is a perfect tobacco for the early morning with that first cup of coffee before the cobwebs have been cleared from the brain. With this and a coffee in hand, I'm able to plan my day with ease. This has found a place in my rotation.

I'm grateful to Sutliff for carrying on this blend, it's my all day smoke. I was saddened that both Dunhill and McClellen closed their fine tobacco works. Just recently I added Sutliffs Maple Walnut to this Match Sunrise, about 0.25:1 Ratio Sutliff Match Sunrise =1 Sutliff Maple Walnut 0.25 This has created a slightly nutty and sweet taste and aroma while keeping the flavor and aroma of the Match Sunrise and removed some of the harshness of the Sunrise.

I'm currently trying all kinds of MATCH english blends and Early Morning is one of my favorites.

A wonderful mixture that is a great morning smoke, but can be smoked throughout the day with ease. Smooth, easy going, nice flavor. A elegantly simple smoke.

love the match sunrise. very smooth tobacco taste. not a strong bite. smokes relatively cool.

Great flavor

Outstanding flavor and odor. Mild yet flavorful. An excellent tobacco.

Mild enough to enjoy often

During the hot Summer months it is a mild all day smoke. Just perfect. Very smooth. Adequate nutty flavor . Easy draw and does not burn hot . I have been using it for several years .

"Early Morning Pipe" has quickly become a welcome addition to my morning routine, of course after my Morning Devotions! It's mellow, yet inviting. Smooth, yet a good push. Tasty, yet not overpowering. I am certain that my fellow Pipers will find Early Morning Pipe as a great start!

Early morning match is one of my favorite tobaccos. Just as good as the original only cheaper which may make it better than the original...lol. The only complaint would be the higher moisture content which is very common among bulk tobaccos. But even that levels of fairly quickly once I get it put into a jar.

Match is a great medium English blend that has a stronger flavor than early morning pipe. Still along the same nutty, light leathery smoothness as EMP, but with a richer and more full flavor. The Latakia at the midpoint in the bowl really opens up the depth of the blend. I’m super glad to have bought 16oz to smoke and cellar. Probably won’t be long before I order more!!

Flavor and mixture remind me of the Dunhill blend and smoke.

Good overall, but the smoke is on the hot side.

My all the time smoke, light but still full of flavor. A great price.

Has a great mild flavor. Aroma is a little too strong for my wife, so I smoke when I’m away on business.

Its not as tasty as the original Dunhill but its pretty good

This isn't even close to the current Peterson's offering. I bought this as well as the Nightcap match. The Nightcap is surprisingly close and over time I'm sure I'll say it's identical. This however.... There's a strong cavandish note I don't even recognize as EMP, the burley is quite forward and the Latakia is almost unnoticeable until the second half of your bowl

This is no where close to early morning pipe. I'll probably buy something to blend into to get it to be enjoyable, but I'm very disappointed.

without a doubt,this is the best Latakia/Oriental I have ever smoked . Not too strong,it is perfect.I highly recommend

Excellent, mellow, smooth smoking pipe tobacco. I tried a small sample and subsequently ordered 8 ounces and have enjoyed its flavor and aroma on a regular basis, in fact, this is a go-to blend for me when I just want it enjoy a relaxing bowl and spend time in contemplation. This would suffice as an all day tobacco were I limited to a single choice.

excellent blend aroma and flavor.an all time favorite for good reason.

Look, to a degree it’s subjective. I like it, it is smooth and pleasant and for me fills that void Dunhill left.

very smooth no bite good all day good price

Love the flavor and room note. It's definitely changed some after a month or so in a jar. Like it better now than i did at first.

I love this tobacco. This is my daily morning with coffee smoke.

Does not equal the original, but is enjoyable.

love it all day long. especially with a glass of whiskey

I needed a tobacco that was milder than my usual's for my Bible study at 5am. I bought this after P&C was out of the Presbyterian Match. I would add a bit from my other tobaccos to my Presbyterian for a little extra flavor. Although it is still a bit strong for my early morning routine it is still a very good tobacco. I think it may be perfect to add a bit of this with Presbyterian next time it is in stock. I believe the blend of the two will be just right for my early morning smoke.

i love this stuff

Dense smoke with mild flavors. This tobacco is very moist. I allow small batches to dry abit before smoking.

Smooth, easy smoke

A very smooth smoke but it is lacking in the taste department. Maybe I'll add some other tobacco next time but overall would buy again

Good nit great

A smooth and delicious smoke. My favorite with coffee.

Quite tasty with just the right note.

Excellent ! Not an exact match but close enough that I won’t worry about the loss.

outstanding!!!

Great way to ease into the day.

Pleasant, good English with sweet undertones, but. nothing like the Dunhill EMP.. I've been a pipe smoker since 1960. My "go to" tabac was Dunhill MY MIXTURE 1066; Early Morning. Aperitif, and, Might cap. [And, Balkan S.} I had a small amount of EMP when this match mixture came in...compared the two. WILL SOME TABAC CO PLEASE BUY THE DUNHILL LINE AND RE-ISSUE?

Same as the other commentor, "Don't Change A Thing!". Excellent Match, Note and Aroma is perfect. Not too strong but not too mild, and both my wife and I enjoy the aroma. Thank You!

It seems like whenever i find a good product at a good price it disappears shortly there after. This product rocks and way less in price than Dunhill. DON'T CHANGE A THING……actually send me another pound just in case.

I’ve only smoked a few bowls so far and I never did smoke the original so there’s nothing to compare to. As for the match I’ve found it to be a very light smoke with little going on. It was described as going great with morning coffee, but coffee overpowers it to the point you don’t know what your smoking. It’s not bad mind you, I just think there’s a lot better choices out there.

Though I prefer Match Presbyterian for my first-of-the-day pipe (and last-of-the-day pipe for that matter), Match Early Morning runs a close second. Give both of these popular classic Match-Mixtures a try, and see for yourself which fits your pallet best - either way, you can't go wrong.

Wasnt a fan of the match 965 and nightcap, but the emp is fairly close and a good replacement for me.

A lighter smoke for mornings. I thought I'd give it a try because I really enjoy Match 965. Not sure if it's to my liking yet... Not a quality issue, just a matter of personal preference.

good sub

I bought a bunch of this baccy a number of years ago when it 1st came out and just smoked the heck out of it. And for some reason my palate stopped appreciating it so, it went directly into the not hardly smoked at all club. So, I gave a lot of it away and had so much that there was still a few pounds remaining. I smoked some of this baccy today and I'm happy to say I think it ages quite well. Best sipping tobacco I have had in awhile. This stuff is a sleeper for your cellar.

I found it to be about a 90% match to EMP, mild with a smooth flavor and no bite but my 1 lb bag was dry. That was a disappointment. 2nd time I've received dry tobacco.

It's smooth and a 95+% match to DUNHILL Early Morning Pipe. I enjoyed it and will buy again. But mine was a bit dry. Which is why I only gave it 4 stars.

Well folks, this does not taste or smell exactly the same, but I have to admit it is a good replacement. I "feel" about the same when I smoke it (I'm talking nicotine here), and it tastes so-so, but smells nice when I retrohale. Give it a try if you need a replacement and see what you think. I also recommend "Daybreak" as another EMP replacement.

Great mixture with nice spicy but cool taste. It bits a little.

Funny you should ask. A while ago I ordered some 2 oz. samples of your match series, one of which was EMP. I found it mild, flavorful without the hint of bite. Based on that experience I ordered 1 lb. deciding it would be my everyday smoke. Imagine my surprise that when I tried a bowlful, I did not have the same experience. It was harsh and had a pronounced bite. Don't get me wrong, it smokes like a typical Latakia laced English, just not similar to the sample I tried. I now have a pound of disappointment, not bad tobacco, just not what I expected.

Good match close to the Dunhil blend I love so much. So glad to be able to order in bulk.
