Granger and 5 Brothers Mix in a Dr Grabow Hillcrest 84L Canadian.

So, Granger tends to need a few relights, but not with 5 Brothers. Stays lit so much better and overall smokes much better. I usually mix it with other Burley otcs, but the Granger it really benefits. Nice taste of fermented apples, with a creamy mouthfeel.

Starting off my smoking day with a bowl of year 2024 Edward G.

All the cats have eaten/or are currently eating. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
