About Five Brothers Pipe Tobacco
Five Brothers Pipe Tobacco is a historic American tobacco brand that traces its roots to the five Finzer brothers, who established their tobacco business in Louisville, Kentucky, in 1866. The brand later passed through Pinkerton Tobacco Company and Swedish Match before joining Scandinavian Tobacco Group. Five Brothers is now blended under STG Lane and has retained its original no-nonsense character as a traditional Burley pipe tobacco. Unlike many aromatic pipe tobaccos, Five Brothers focuses almost entirely on the natural taste of the tobacco itself rather than added flavorings.
Five Brothers Pipe Tobacco Blend
Five Brothers is made entirely from air-cured Burley tobacco and uses a very fine shag cut that sets it apart from many traditional ribbon-cut pipe tobaccos. The blend is non-aromatic with minimal casing and no prominent added flavoring, allowing the earthy, nutty, and naturally robust character of Burley tobacco to remain at the center of the smoke. Five Brothers is also known as a stronger pipe tobacco with a fuller nicotine presence than many mild aromatic blends. Its straightforward recipe has changed very little in spirit over the years, giving experienced pipe smokers a traditional Burley blend without sweet toppings, fruit flavoring, or heavy aromatic casing.
Five Brothers Pipe Tobacco Package Size and Sales
Five Brothers Pipe Tobacco is available here in 1.25oz pouches sold in 5-count packs. The 1.25oz pouches generally provide about 12 to 18 pipe bowls, depending on bowl size and how much tobacco you pack. Its fine shag cut burns more quickly than many coarser pipe tobacco cuts, so packing and smoking technique can also affect how much tobacco is used per bowl.
