War Horse was a line of Irish workingman's tobaccos - robust blends that could be satisfying, even in a small bowl during break time. Their tobaccos were never readily available in the US, and disappeared entirely decades ago. The Standard Tobacco Company of Pennsylvania acquired the rights to the brand to reintroduce it because of the trend toward heartier tobaccos.

There are three blends available - The bold War Horse Bar (a plug tobacco), War Horse Ready-Cut (a more medium-bodied, pre-cut blend), and the all-new War Horse Green, a blend with the same strength as War Horse Bar, but with a richer top note, in the vein of some current production Irish tobaccos.
