This thick, powerful twist tobacco has its roots way back in the European history of smoking. A blend of Indian Dark Air Cured Virginia is blended with other strong Virginia to produce a punchy and powerful smoke. Many still chew the thinner Bogie and Pig Tail variations, although some do chew this thicker variety, its best for smoking. The tobaccos are hand spun into a rope and for this Sweeter twist, the rolled tobacco is soaked in rum and inverted sugars. While this is classed as sweet and flavoured, it is not your usual Aromatic at all. The addition of the casings, just takes the edge off a little, but is still a spicy powerhouse by any standards. A real traditional tobaccos, which is not suggested for the feint hearted or those new to pipe smoking.
Compared to the black, steamed twists the brown carries a much spicier taste and bigger nicotine hit. If you are looking for a big and bold tobacco which can either be chewed or sliced for the pipe, look to further. Unlike the sweet Pigtails we carry, this has no additional sugars or toppings, leaving a very natural tasting tobacco. Carries a very high nicotine hit too and is ideal for those who want a good replacement to cigarettes. A big hit in a short time frame, ideal in a small pipe for 5 minute smoke breaks.
