Amazing taste and strength

The only downside, which is pretty annoying, is its not really ready to smoke immediately, you have to let it dry or it will not stay lit

High potential with aging.

he bowl has a burnt taste that just dominates all the other flavors. I have to believe the rough, harsh edges will be smoothed out by aging. Very strong as noted. Not for new smokers at all. Lights and burns easily....Read More

English Virginia Deluxe

with another VA to reduce the % nicotine concentration. I blend it with Kendal Gold and/or Bright CR ,,,,even 70% Brown Twist sliced and 30% CR bright works for a strong smoke. Lovely rich VA character with tangy leathery notes. Even takes to a little added perique. When this is blended with other milder sweet VA's, the flavor reminds me of Ashton's old Brindle Flake or some of McClelland's great Virginias....Read More

Brown Twist is everything fine Virginia tobacco is meant to be. Also, if you can't get any Brown Irish X because it's never in stock, Brown Twist is exactly the same thing, just sliced for convenience. If you've had BT you've had BIX. Bogie, X, XXX are all just indicators of ring gages.

This stuff has gotten better after just one year.

t was gentle, mellow, and wow...flavorful; with a mild sweetness, and all of those other VA notes people say a Dark-VA provides. It's just an enjoyable smoke. It does require some drying-time before loading up; because it is moist. Otherwise, without drying, it is tough to light and keep lit. So, I do plan to add 500g of this to my collection for the future. (*Update*) I did it and have already added 500g more of this to the storeroom. Just going through some of what I already have with some other pipes, now, to start the learning process; as is required for every blend when pipe smoking. I should say you will be tempted to dry this for a long time, but keep the drying of it under an hour. It will feel very moist but it still burns fine; when you find how it prefers to be packed. Over-drying doesn't complement the taste and really isn't required to enjoy this blend. Also, do not restrict/prevent yourself from trying this in a cob. Anyhow, I myself am still learning to smoke G.H. & Co's Brown Twist and enjoying it....Read More
