I actually like Today’s St Bruno better than the 80’s-90’s version that I remember. Maybe it’s changed, maybe my memory has faltered but it’s a lot more enjoyable.

I liked the old stuff because it was different. This current stuff tastes like a dozen other blends.
One thing I did notice, is this current stuff KIND OF smells(in the jar) and even tastes a bit like McClelland VAs.
It's actually closer than a couple of the "match" blends I've tried.
I'll be opening a jar of 13 year old 5100 soon. Then I can do a direct comparison.

Big N Burley again in a Peterson Bulldog. Note to self, this isnt a pre-dinner smoke this stuff is stout in all the right ways.
