Moonshine Pipe Co. has paired up with Pipes and Cigars to bring you an unusual blend that fits the unusual flair that Jonathan Lavezzo puts into his pipes. Jonathan has built a fast growing pipe brand that was designed to get the blue collar guy a quality pipe they can afford. Getting your hands on one might take time but now you can at least get your hands on the tobacco that complements the brand so well.
XXX is a Latakia-based blend that is mixed with Turkish Smyrna, high quality Virginia leaf, and a touch of Burley. To finish off the exotic mix of tobaccos a light top note of Kentucky Bourbon is added for room note. XXX is a fantastic English-style blend that will impress you from first light to final puff.
Due to my inexperienc I really didn't know what to expect. I was hoping for a sweater tobacco. I'm open to suggestions. While unlike the moonshine I'm gonna have trouble finnishingbthe 5oz I got.

Not bad

I liked this blend. It had good flavor and aroma and a decent amount of Latakia. It was a bit on the dry side though.

xxx blend
Nov 26, 2017
I gave members of my pipe club this blend not telling what it was, it seemed universally liked, the bourbon is very subtle and the latakia just enough. I like the fine cut to keep it lit in a relatively small pipe.

Easy Smoke
Nov 22, 2017
Lines up with M.M. American Patriot in product description, aroma and they look nearly the same. It is an 'easy smoke' without bite, and for me, it smoked on the faster side. It was perfect moisture coming out of the bag. It would hold a press but then fall easily when coaxed. I smoked it in a M.M. corncob pipe. I like it and would order again.

Great smoke for the price
Nov 12, 2017
Smoked 1 medium sized bowl and it lasted me about 1 hour. Smokes fine and smokes dry. No bite for me but I can tell after a while it feels harsh. I stuck threw the bowl and after about mid way it started getting complex. I wasn’t sure at first but I like it. Not an every day smoke though but a nice weekend night smoke.

This blend is very harsh and has a bite. Terrible aftertaste. I am very disappointed in this product. Will stick with Lane products.

A mystery
Mar 04, 2017
I really can't decide if I like it or not. That intrigues me to keep smoking it . A most unusual blend with a outstanding scent. It does not seem to bit, but I'm Leary of smoking it to much(everyday) as it may get to harsh, and start to bit. So far I like it but it remains a mystery if I wish to continue with it. . Mean while I still go back to my old favorite standards for security.

Best blend I've EVER smoked!
Oct 23, 2016
Great blend, I hope you keep it in stock! I ordered a 3 ounce bag and shared with a buddy. Not only did I enjoy it immensely, he did as well and expressed interest in ordering. The tobacco tastes nice, smooth smoke start to finish. The blend offers a sweetness, with a smokey hint. I'll be ordering this one again and again!

Search is over.

I have searched for a long time to find a tobacco I could smoke without loosing interest after awhile. Moonshine xxx is that tobacco. The aroma,taste, and price will keep it at the top of my list {Hope never to see out of stock without warning.}

This is my first English style tobacco
Aug 24, 2016
This is my first English style tobacco. with that said, it's opened a whole new world of tobacco to me that I probably otherwise wouldn't have got into. Mild enough to enjoy for a newbie like me, but flavorful and complex enough for a sophisticated palate. nice oaky, woody flavor.
I hope you enjoy this tobacco as much as I did.

Very Good English Style Tobacco
May 06, 2016
I love Frog Morton in the Cellar tobacco, so when I read reviews that stated Moonshine Pipe Company's XXX was blended to be like FMITC, I had to try it. I must say that it looks and tastes very similar to FMITC. The major difference is it has not been aged in used bourbon casks and lacks the sweet whiskey smell. It is a wonderful English blend. If you like FM, you will like XXX. I recommend it.

Great Purchase - will repeat
Mar 22, 2016
This will make my third order for this and will do it again. It is above all the rest with a mellow yet at the same time providing the full flavor of a great tobacco.
This is great for breaking in a new pipe - so order a new pipe along with the tobacco for a full flavorful experience

Another must for the beginner or returning pipe smoker.
Feb 26, 2016
Recently returned to the pipe smoking hobby. This was one of my first purchases and it's a hit with me. Smooth and mild enough for the beginner with a nice smoky flavor. I find it a milder version of Frog Mortons' Cellar. Can't wait to purchase one of their great looking pipes to smoke it in.

Nice all day English
Feb 04, 2016
This is an English that you would have no problem smoking all day. Great room note, not to strong on the nicotine and best of all it doesn't bite at all.

All day English-Aro perhaps?!?
Jan 21, 2016
This is one of my everyday go-to's. Just enough smokiness from the Latakia with the very subtle whiskey note makes this a great all day smoke. It tastes especially good in my Moonshine Pipes Devil Anse!

Load up and be impressed!
Sep 10, 2015
A perfect blend for all day! Similar to Frog Morton's Cellar, but with more subtle tastes. I've smoked almost 4 oz. and it has never burned my tongue or left me wanting for flavor! One of the staples in my rotation for years to come. I thoroughly love this blend. An English/Aromatic at it's best.

An Interesting Hybrid English/Aromatic
Aug 31, 2015
I had never heard of Moonshine Pipe Co. or their XXX Blend, but bought some out of curiosity. I like the interesting blend of what at first seemed to be just another English with Burley and an aromatic element. They describe it as a touch of Kentucky Bourbon. I'm not sure that's what I taste, but I do like the stuff. It's kind of a "funky" taste at first, but it grew on me quickly. I'd call it medium in body, and definitely different, a little habit forming, and very good! I'd love to see an actual Moonshine Pipe Co. PIPE. There doesn't seem to be a single one anywhere in the world, as near as I can tell.
Customer Testimonials
I smoked this blend in a Rhodesian pattern Moonshine pipe. A great combination. This blend has a full flavor that does not over power you. They have a winner with this one.
JR of Hydro, OK
Very smoky flavor, enjoyed it very much, great job!
SO of Quincy, IL

GA of Katy, TX
Great Smoke! From the time I opened it and caught the rich aroma I new it was going to be my new favorite! I packed my Cob and lit up and the taste is wonderful. Great mix and it is going to be a must have item from now on.

As a new smoker I'm always looking for that daily tobacco.. I found it in this.. Light on latakia but not on overall flavor! Going to need to get more soon!
GP of Mesa, AZ
"Out of the gates with Authority. First blend from Moonshine Pipe Co. and Jonathan walks onto the scene demanding attention. From that first bourbon note upon opening the bag to the very last wisp of smoke that issues forth from the stem firmly clenched between your teeth this is a blend that requires your attention. Not an overpowering, chemical laden stew of flavors but a slowly developing, sensuous smoke. This is a solid English blend. But, it doesn't stop there. That hint of latakia smokiness blends smoothly with the burley to provide a cool, satisfying smoke that leaves you wanting more. Don't approach this blend ready for a quick smoke, Moonshine Pipe Co. XXX blend deserves to be savored and enjoyed. The only mistake you will make here is not buying enough, so get more now."
TM of Middleburg, FL
Received my order four days ago and I've smoked eight bowls. Very tasty blend! All the components of the blend play their part consistently throughout the entire smoke. It burns even and long. Reminds me of drinking bourbon around the campfire on a Fall evening. You got a winner here Jonathan!
DS of South Saint Paul, MN
I just recently purchased this blend and there is not a doubt in my mind that I didn't order enough. It is very smooth. A perfect mixture that was kind to my senses at any time of the day. I will be ordering more. Thank you.
NP of Costa Mesa, CA
I just got my order in today, GREAT SMOKE !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Burned so good in my Moonshine squashed snakeshead, this is a must try !!!!!!!!!!!!
SL of ocala, FL
This blend was a hit with me! Wonderful latakia flavor, with great aroma. All in a mild/medium blend. Burned evenly, stayed lit, didn't get soggy in the dottle.
DD of Dacula, GA
Being a new pipe smoker I'm always looking for my default smoke. I think I found it! Just the right level of Latakia for my tastes.. the other flavors meld greatly!
GP of Mesa, AZ
I can't say enough good things about this blend. Russ Ouelette really hit it out of the park with this one. Nice, cool, mild American/English blend that smokes naturally and has a taste that will keep you coming back for more. A great alternative to frog morton cellar with a twist!

TM of Middleburg, FL
Moonshine Pipe Company has hit a home run with their first step up to the plate. I wish I had the vocabulary to describe what an enjoyable blend this is. Much milder than a typical English, and not dominated at all by the latakia. 5 bowls in one evening without a hit of tongue burn. Each bowl was savored as the flavors developed. This blend has something for all.
JB of Mooresville, NC
Wow! This blend is fantastic! I'm not a fan of Latakia so I was a bit worried. But I'm glad I got this tobacco! It's a very smooth and mild smoke not overpowering and no bite at all! It has a slightly sweet hint to it but still has a nice mellow smokiness that makes you crave this blend! It has become my daily smoke since I got it! You won't regret anything with the moonshine pipes name to it! Get this baccy!
JP of Riverside, NJ
I must say that this blend is as the quality of the pipes from its namesake.Smooth and bold, but not too much of either. Very happy with the blend and it complements the collection of Jonathan's pipes I've got which seems to keep growing. Two thumbs up!
JK of Mount Holly Springs, PA
Great Aromatic Blend! Have really enjoyed the past few evening smokes. Out of the park Jonathan! Great job friend!
DS of Morganton, GA
An awesome blend. This picks up where Frogmorton Cellar falls short. A punchy little English blend with the oriental zest I enjoy. The whiskey casing is very pronounced in the pouch note but not as heavy handed in the smoke. It's there to provide a little back up sweetenes, but not over power the whole blend. This is top shelf for sure!
