First of all, I am a huge fan of Five Brothers. I can easily go through a pack in a few days. The deep, nutty, one-dimensional and consistent flavor is what I need sometimes. I also found out that it blends really well with Virginias. Not only it tames them, but also adds some background to the blend. My ratio is 1:1. We all know that Burleys burn slower than Virginias, however shag cut doesn't affect the burn rate of a Virginia blend too much, maybe a little.
