Seattle Pipe Club Mississippi River Special Reserve uses the same recipe as the original, but when Joe Lankford came across some well-aged vintage leaf that matched up with some of the tobaccos he uses, and he swapped them out to make a version of Mississippi River that's even smoother. The can contains 4 oz. bars of this zesty and sweet updated blend.
