Paladin I don't think you could handle Old Joe Krantz lol!

Hahaha, yes Paladin Piper, this blend is a bull! I can only imagine when Escudo is being pushed around a bit, it calls Old Joe Krantz to come and settle the score! LOL Glad to see ya buddy, Happy Piping!

LOL, well I hope I didn't ruin anything for ya Jorge!! Happy Piping brother!

Hey John, glad to see ya buddy! Have you ever had it before? I've never had any aged, it would be interesting to hear what it's like after being cellared for a while. When you decide to crack the tin/jar, be sure to let me know! Happy Piping buddy!

@@FullDottle I'll do that thanks for the reply really appreciate it

You, my friend, are a strong pipe smoker LOL. I just don't think I could smoke this blend all day but do enjoy it after a big meal or when I haven't had a smoke in a while, it just hits all the good spots and lets me know that I have had a bowl. Happy Piping Everette!

Thank you Oom Howard! That's how I smoke this blend as well......it is a blend for certain occasions: for me, it is suited for those moments when I haven't had a pipe in a while and need to be satisfied quickly. Thanks for stopping by buddy! Happy Piping!

Hey buddy!! Glad you stopped by! My advice to you as far as the complexity of a blend; do a Google search of tobacco flavor wheels and look it over as you smoke a blend. When you do this, you can start to place a name with some of the flavors you are experiencing and as you do this your tobacco "vernacular" will broaden and you will be better able to analyze the blend. Eventually, you won't need the flavor wheel except occasionally as a reminder. Hope this helps buddy!! Yes, OJK has a powerful robustness to it! I enjoy it most as a quick smoke after a meal. Glad you are here my friend, Happy Piping!

This is one of those blends that hit the spot quick, I really enjoy it as a quick smoke when I need to feel it but don't have a lot of time. I don't think I would be interested in a large bowl of this, but my Zulu really suits this blend well for me! I can't wait to hear your thoughts on it buddy!! Happy Piping!

Thanks brother! I noticed that too, either people like it or they don't. I like it, just on certain occasions. I do like HB more though and need to put an order in so I can break this tribute pipe in with the proper tobacco! Happy Piping!

Thanks Doug!! LOL, it is a very robust blend.......I mean strong and full of whoa! 🤣🤣 Glad you liked the review brother! Happy Piping!

Just tried this for the 1st. time yesterday- Wow! Great stuff. I had ordered 6 different tobaccos, and while they were all good choices, this one stands out and is the one I alwayus want to grab. And the nic hit for me on this is probably the strongest I've ever encountered- I might be weird *I do have a very high tolerance) but I found this to be stronger than HH Rustica...with a much fuller body; more smoke; and much tastier!

Sometimes a person needs a little "Burley Bite"!! 😁😁 Glad to see ya buddy! Happy Piping!

Hey Sean! Yeah, it has a pretty good hit to it. Just a very strong blend overall. I hope you are well my friend, Happy Piping!

This is one of those blend that do just that. It is a very strong armed blend that let's you know who's boss! I do like it as a quick smoke though when I don't have time to enjoy the relaxation of a full ks bowl; this blend hits the spot without needing 45 minutes to get there. It does well in my Zulu for a quick 15 min fetch sesh with the ole pup. Happy Piping Doc!!

LOL, well on Smoothness it definitely didn't perform well! I could imagine this is a blend MacArthur had in his corncob in the Pacific theater! Happy Piping brother!

I don't necessarily get metalic, I get Metallica! 🤣🤣😏👍 It is a very robust, sharp Burley blend that I'm okay with every once in a while but not often. Like a stiff drink after a long day, though I don't partake, this blend is great when you have only 15 minutes to catch the train to Nicotiana. 😁😁 Happy Piping Brother Steve!!
