Pipe Tobacco: Heavy Hitters Lineup

[mso489]

+1 on Tambolaka, though 4noggins doesn't carry it anymore, I don't believe. I think the brown XX Twist rope is supposed to be even fuller strength than the Black, though the black is just fine. Billy Budd, Old Joe Kranz, and Five Brothers are nice and full-strength, but have been in regular rotation with me, as has Semois. I find milder stuff gives the full-strength blends more interest when they come back around.

The Brown Irish X will put any normal person on the floor. Excellent for lunting. Five Brothers is great stuff, but I did not find it to be as brutally strong as others did.

I can attest to the JackKnife Plug being strong.

This thread has made me seek out my OJK stash yet again...

Have to agree with OJK, Nightcap, and Billy budd...look out!

OJK is one of those that you can smoke all day. It is strong, but not so withering that you cannot just keep a mild pipe going. This makes it perfect for slow smoking, since you get as much flavor and Nicotine as you need with breath smoking alone...
