KBV's Jupiter Slices is among the best tobacco I have EVER tasted. It's like a cross between Stonehaven and McClelland 5100. I have ZERO doubt this will only get better with age too. It's definitely in my top 10 all time favorites so far.

I hope he figures it out.
From the Ken Byron site:
" Transparency: this is a sourced blend under my own house label. "
So, he doesn't make this stuff.

So who makes it?
I am under the impression that he sources from various places, and that many of his blends involve pre-existing bulk tobacco that has been further processed and/or prepared. I’m sure there are many on here who know more than I, and perhaps even the specifics of Jupiter Slices.

Wherever it comes from, to ME, it is damn close to, if not surpass 5100 and has become a blend I will always try have on hand and in the cellar.
