Old Joe Krantz
Really love this and can’t praise enough. Nicotine strong, taste deep without the sweetness of what I have smoked before.

Old Joe Krantz Original
Forward Burley presence with Perique coming in next with Virginia in the distant background. One notch stronger than Haunted Bookshop. Really a well balanced blend with good strength in nicotine. Don’t be afraid, try it on a full stomach. I will be ordering more!!!!

great blend
This blend is very good but quite strong. As a daily smoker, for me this is a morning pipe and a final evening bowl. Too rich for me to use as an all day blend but it it delightful when I do have some. Nutty burley, almost a semois butteryness. Light sweet and sour note on top, very satisfying smoke. Only have 15 minutes on a break? Or is it too cold or rainy to be outside for long periods? Then this blend will fit the bill for you. One must have some experience to get the most out of the flavor profile which can be overcome by too much burn. With a light sip i find a nice flavorful blend that satisfies. Too quick with sipping and it can be quite heavy and heady. I think everyone who wants to enjoy the full spectrum of pipe tobaccos should try this blend at least once!

My Favorite
After years of searching, I can not find a Burly blend that comes close to being as good as this one. Haunted Bookshop comes close but I love the kick in Old Joe Krantz. This is a staple and daily smoker in my Tobacco cellar.

A real powerhouse
This is a real powerhouse, burly forward blend. It is bold and in your face and has a nic punch (watch it on an empty stomach). This is one of the tobaccos I have gone to buying in bulk....it must remain in the baccy cabinet at all times.
