Sweet and Strong?

[SailorJack]

As I get up in years I like many start to develop a bit of a sweet tooth. I am looking for a blend that has a decent amount of natural sweetness about it and a goodly amount of strength at the same time. Please give me your recommendations.

G & H Rum Flake fills that need for me.

Dock's suggestion is pretty good. I'd add McConnell's Scottish Flake, and it delivers more sweetness when rubbed out while still maintaining a hearty tobacco taste. It's become a favorite of mine in the past few weeks for this reason. 5100 isn't bad for this as well, but it's not that strong.

Natural sweetness implies no sweetner added. If that is what you meant, I would suggest GLPease's Union Square.

Otherwise for some strength and sweetness:

I'll second Rum flake

Mamouth Cave Twist (if you can find it) is sweet and has about the strongest nic hit I've smoked.

G&H's Whiskey rope would fit the bill. I didn't get much "whiskey" taste, but a sweetened baccy for sure.

Cheers,

TC
