Yes, I like Five Brothers when I want to smoke a strong burley. Back when I used to blend from whole leaf, I would get red tips burley from "The Tobacco Butcher" in Kentucky and that stuff is strong! Wish I still had some but it all went away during my big liquidation of bulks a while back. Five Brothers reminds me of that burley. I could probably get some more from him but with all the work involved in getting it to the right moisture level, destemming it, and shredding it, it's much easier to just buy store-bought tobacco.Trying some 5 Brothers in a Stanwell Brushed Black pot. Damn this stuff burns fast. Minimal flavor and I like burley. Might try mixing with some PA but doubt it will help. If not, I'll send it off to Haebar since he apparently likes it. No accounting for taste, lol.
I love Bold Kentucky. Only recently started smoking it after Timbo gave me some.I'm smoking my old German clay pipe with MB Bold Kentucky in honor of the old German tradition. Very old.View attachment 9050
