Spun tobacco - English

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 มี.ค. 2020
- This video is about spun tobacco and how Mac Baren makes it. I want to show the extensive hand work we put into our spun tobacco, and I hope the video will explain why this kind of tobacco belongs to the most expensive pipe tobaccos we produce. Only two factories worldwide still produce this original form for pipe tobacco, because the labor provided for this is enormous. Have a look and make up your own mind.
Later I will upload an extended version of this video with the background of this kind of pipe tobacco, explanation to the making of spund tobacco and how you could fill your pipe with spun tobacco.
Enjoy and happy smoke

Now i know why they are 20$ a tin, money well spent, thanks for keeping things going and giving us great treats😉
Dark Twist is a permanent resident in my cellar, I love it more and more each time I smoke it. Seeing the production process was to me like a child going into a toy shop. Amazing, thanks for sharing.
Great work, Sir. Beautiful tobacco. Enjoyed watching.
Wow, so much "hands on" makes me understand the value and care that goes into each tin. Thank you so much for sharing this perspective. 👍🍂🔥💨
I have some Stockton, glad I do. I appreciate all the work that goes into these fine tobaccos.
EXCELLENT VIDEO! Great production quality, Per! It looks to me like 6 bright Virginia leaves are laid down followed by 3 bundles of the same bright Virginia, then 3 bundles of dark fired Kentucky, and finally a ribbon cut Cavendish sprinkled on top of the bundles of Virginia and dark fired? I did not see the later being added, but saw it sitting on top right before rolled. I also noticed a bucket of liquid that I can only assume is the water and maple sugar casing that is added to this tobacco. I would love to see the extended version showing how that casing is added.
Again, wonderful video, sir!
Glad you had me subscribe to your channel.
P.S. To confirm, we met at Sutliff. You showed me the importance of Burley in a blend. I appreciate you! Your advice has led me to delve deeper into Burleys. Currently hooked on your HH Burley Flake as well as MacBaren Golden Extra (among other Burley tobaccos). I hope to see you again at Sutliff this year. Best wishes to you and your family, sir!
You are right about the 6 to 8 leaves are spread out on the table. The leaves are used as wrapper and the amount is depending of the size of the leaves. Smaller leaves we place 8 and bigger leaves we place just 6. The inlay is then placed and it is a mix of Virginia and Dark Fired Kentucky leaves. The amount of each is depending on the blend in order to make variation in the taste. I would very much like to explain the differences here, but according to Danish law I am not allowed to mention blends as it would be seen as advertising for tobacco. Strange law but I have to comply.
The bucket you noticed was plain water used to wet the rolling table for a smoother rolling. The casing in the case of spun tobacco is heated water with maple sugar. It is fed to the leaves before being sorted and the sugar also has the function to hold the spun tobacco together, functioning like a kind of natural “glue”.
I am happy to hear about your journey into Burley, and I can only confirm that we all learn new things every day. Best regards and stay safe.
Another really interesting and beautifully made video.
Thank you Sir Georg for these Danish delights :-) Would be great to see some HHQuality plugs , twists from MB .
Who knows what the future brings :)
Amazing that each tin is packed by hand.
Dark twist is one of my all time favorites!
even though I try not to become too fixated on a specific brand when I buy tobacco, I end up with mostly bac barren tobaccos in the cellar :)
So cool 😊 that’s how the coins are done. Thanks for the share. 😊👍
thanks for this!
Great video again, i really appreciate the input on these beautiful blends. A video on the variety of twist blends and the differences between them will be great as well. I recently opened a 16 yr old roll cake and it has mellowed significantly with age. Thank Mr. Jensen for your effort and passion and thank you mac baren for providing the insight into your factory.
Kindest regards
Al janabi.
P.s what new hh blend will you be releasing, Any sneak preview?
Fascinating, and looks good enough to eat 🤩
A noble work indeed. Your roll cakes are well worthy of the highest praise. I have yet to try them all. One question though, right before been rolled, one can observe in the video, that there are some black sprinkled spots, as if "seasoning" is applied. Is this how flavor comes or it is just spots on the leaf?
It is spots on the leaf you noticed. The only casing we use for the spun tobaccos is maple sugar and water, so the tobacco is very natural in taste. It is the same recipe used for more than 400 years.
👍💨
Including the center vein prob adds to the nic hit.
Wow, what a fine art of making quality pipe tobacco's! I've a question: how is the air removed from the tin? Thnx
The tobacco is packed in tins, and afterward, they come into a vacuum chamber, where about 40% of the air is removed. Happy smoke.
Thanks for sharing. Removing the veins from the leaf wouldn't make an upgrade on the blend?
If we removed the veins (stems) from the tobacco it would change the taste of the blend. If that would be an upgrade is up to the individual pipe smoker to find out, however the blend was created with the stems back in the 50ties so I would not change anything.
The developer, Jørgen Halberg, had his reasons to make it like this, and even unknown for us today the blends have found their friends all over the world. If we were going to remove the stems I would personally rather make a new blend, so the pipe smokers would not be confused about the taste.
@@PerGeorgJensen thank you so much for your reply. Your top place on the tobacco industry is well deserved. Respectfully yours!
I'd like to ask you about the leaf. Any particular reason why you didn't dispose the center vein of the leaf?While in cigar, they dispose it because they said it's high nicotine content. Thank you
We have to be very careful changing this pipe tobacco. Our spun tobaccos were all developed in the 1950ties by Jørgen Halberg, but unfortunately there is not historical material about his ideas behind these tobaccos. So the knowledge of why and how is lost in history, but I have a rather good feel about Jørgen Halberg, so I am sure that he left the veins (stems) for a good reason, perhaps to make the tobacco the way we do (like in the video).
Normally we try to remove as many stems as possible in our pipe tobacco, butthe spun tobaccos are the only kind of tobacco where we leave them be. The cigar people remove the stems of the wrapper leaf because they are not able to roll a cigar with the stems in the tobacco.
@@PerGeorgJensen thanks for the explanation.
Honey and Chocolate Roll cake!!!!!!!!!
Interesting idea :)
Я и не знал что так заводы крутят роллы.Сам так делаю в ручную для себя табак дома.Только он потом у меня проходит пару недель ферментацию и потом отлежку пару лет.
