Gallaher Limited Condor Bar

Condor is one of the classic pipe tobaccos produced by the company Thomas Gallaher founded, sold off British market shelves. The form called Bar is the pressed, plug-form version of the blend; the smoker fills by cutting a slice from the plug or rubbing it out. The line's body rests on dark fire-cured Virginia leaf, joined by Burley and a small amount of flavoured black Cavendish. What defines the blend is the Lakeland-style essence applied over it; described as floral and soapy, this topping is accompanied by a sweet, liqueur-like note. The plug form gives a cooler, slower burn. Condor Bar is no longer in production today; the line's long-cut and ready-rubbed versions remain on the market.
