For fans of the original Three Nuns, first blended over a century ago, the Mac Baren iteration will invoke memories of the original, but is its own exceptional smoking experience entirely. For those of us who are HUGE C.S. Lewis fans, but were not alive for the original, this blend is a chance to smoke something exceptional while wondering what Oxford would have been like in the glory days. Whichever side you fall on, this is a slightly spicy and smoky experience not to be missed.

Bells Three Nuns Red
I love this one and will keep it in my regular rotation. Smooth and a little stronger flavor compared to some other blends I have tried, a little nutty. Excellent.

Three Nuns regular
Extremely smooth smoking but I like a little flavor. I mix this half and half with Mac Barrens Vanilla Cream. Perfect!

Good Smoke
This is a good well balanced tobacco.

So good
Burns really good and taste good. It’s very smooth and still has plenty of nicotine smells very good as well

I'm Hooked
I'm on my third tin of this. It is a very pleasing smoke. If you want to step up from the aromatics you are smoking give this one a try.

Very good but expensive
I really enjoy Three Nuns. I have never had any other version than the current Bells (Mac Baren) it is very mild and easy to smoke. If they lowered the price I would give it 5 stars and put it in my rotation but it is definitely overpriced in my opinion

Enjoying learning curve
My palette tends to less intense blends but I continue to try tastes beyond my comfort zone. I'm glad I tried Thre Nuns. The flavor is very pleasing and not as intense as I expected. My palette has grown to include this in regular rotation.
