I’ve kind of avoided this blend because I didn’t think I’d like it but your description has me second guessing myself. Going to have to try it and find out now
Just remember it’s personal taste as always. If you like burley with a subtle sweetness, this stuff shines about 1/4 way down the bowl til the end when it can sometimes be bitter. And, of course the beginning can be a little sharp if you chooch on it like a ?. Enjoy in good health. ?☕

Dablone d’Oro is one of my favorites. How was the Brunello Flake? Nice Lovat.
Thanks.. surprised it was up on the site for so long. Smoking nicely and feels like a keeper for me.

I knew to expect the strawberry tin note from the Brunello, and from all I've read, I was relieved to learn that flavor dissipates quickly with a flame. I like it. If the Doblone hadn't come today I'd be smoking the Brunello again. I'll be digging into both frequently in the coming weeks.
