Welcome from central North Carolina, U.S. Forums members used to enjoy an air cured burley from Indonesia called Tambolaka that was quite strong but tasty. It may have a different name there, but is probably readily available.

That is exactly what this thread reminded me of. I never got to try Tambolaka, as much as I wanted to. Then like everything it seems, it was gone. I still wish I had a chance to try it.

By the way, welcome OP.

Hi everybody and thanx you to allow me joining the forum.
you can call me ‘voreva’ (my online name that become my “nickname” in real life by most of my friends)
i’m 51 yrs old husband from Jakarta Indonesia, with 4 kids.

just start smoking pipe a month now, i quit smoking cigarettes the same day i got my first pipe.

———-

i’ve been a clove cigarettes smokers since i’m 13 yrs old. and also a vaping (e-cigarettes) smoker for around 8 years.
I’m just a simple heavy chain smokers.

i once smokes 3 packs a day: 2 pack of clove cigarettes Sampoerna Dji Sam Soe and 1 pack of marlboro light.

by the early 2000, i enjoy Borkum Riff cherry tobacco, mix it with 1 pack of Dji Sam Soe cigarettes.. roll it and smoke it. i mix with cigarettes to make it easier to hand rolled the tobaccos. its end after a year and back to just a cigs.

ps : sorry if my english is bad

thanx for the info !
until now i get the ‘branded’ tobacco from the indonesian online market, not yet buy any bacco’s via international order cus the shipping is quite made the stuff expensive. but brand like Samuel Gawith & Mac Baren already officially imported & sold here with a legit indonesian tax.
