Description

A Dark and Rich variation on a "Codger Burley", F.U.S.T.G! combines a base of house toasted granular-cut White and Dark Burley with a small amount of Red Virginia and a whisper of St. James Perique! Notes of Chocolate, nuts, raisin and earth reign supreme in this easy burning medium to medium-full strength mixture!

Once again faced with the loss of yet another American tobacco manufacturer (this time, the 180 year old Sutliff Tobacco), the shop-blending industry faces a choice- stand stubbornly on the deck of tradition and go down with the ship, or accept the challenge head-on and weather the storm. With this first post-Sutliff blend, we have decidedly chosen the latter. The first of many new blends to come! While many look at these losses as the death of the "Golden Age of Pipe Tobacco", we're excited to do what we do best- Continue to make great blends.

We're not going anywhere- We're just getting started. We're "Fired Up & Set to Go!"

    Above Average "Codger" Blend

    Posted by Scott Swan on Sep 13th 2026

    FUSTG is a welcome alternative to many of the standard codger blends, i.e., Prince Albert, Borkum Riff, etc. It is also a great alternative to the more PPG laden blends like Lane 1Q. The proportions of burley, virginia, and perique produce a very balanced smoke that may lack complexity but that is precisely what makes ir a solid all-day smoke that can be puffed without distraction. The chocolate note is very mild and serves to tame the burley and perique without completely squelching those leaf characteristics. I am an OJK, Pegasus, and Haunted Bookshop piper, so I am accustomed to a greater nic hit than I get from FUSTG, but I will order more as an occasional puff to break up the daily routine. Strongly recommend as an alternative to the standard codger fare.

    Another Smoking Explosion from WCC? !

    Posted by The coffeeguy on Sep 12th 2026

    Ask someone to blindfold you, spin you around, and pin a tail on any blend from WCC. You won’t be disappointed. I think this a marvelous burley. You will have a smooth and memorable smoke that checks the boxes all day long. Fire it up and get set to go!

    F.U…..S.T.G!! ?

    Posted by Ryan on Oct 25th 2025

    Not what I was expecting, BUT!!, I love it. It’s very similar to C&D Pegasus, but with a pile of fallen fall leaves and the occasional wisp of dark chocolate and dark cherry. Reminds me of smoking Pegasus whilst strolling through the woods and taking a bite of chocolate covered cherries as a snack. Great stuff guys! Keep up the good work.

    The taste of fall

    Posted by Sean on Oct 2nd 2025

    Perfect refined codger burley with sweet flavorful toppings that do not fully drown out the tobacco flavor. For my palette this is not a regular smoke as I generally prefer a tad bit fewer toppings I get a lot coming out of this (whiskey, molasses, chocolate?). It's delicious, but I lean more toward all day smokes and for me this is not that. But it's a very good treat every once in a while.

    World-class Burley blend

    Posted by Greg Harris on Jun 28th 2025

    F.U.S.T.G. is up there with the very best Burley-heavy blends by the legendary Bob Runowski, and that’s about the highest compliment I can give. It’s earned a firm place in my rotation thanks to its fullness, smoothness, and strength. If this is the sort of thing we can expect from master blenders like Ernie, the post-Sutliff era doesn’t look so bleak anymore!

    Very good, very different

    Posted by Jeffrey C on Jun 10th 2025

    This blend is 100% not what I was expecting it to be. It is much more subtle than most other burleys. I detect less nuttiness & more earthiness. It's quite delicate & nuanced, with the toppings playing a very minor role. Beware though, it packs quite a surprising punch. The Perique is very much in the background, playing a supporting role. The Red VA is slightly more up-front, adding just a bit of their signature "tang". The burley is what stands out. I recommend.

    Satisfying Burley Blend

    Posted by Barley on May 28th 2025

    This has been a very satisfying blend. Arrived ready to smoke at a perfect moisture level. Easy to keep lit and has smoked well in several different pipe shapes/sizes. Nice, chewy mouth feel from the thick smoke. Your typical burley blend flavors dominate with some cashew nuts and chocolate. The Virginia adds a nice bread note with a little pepper tingle on the retro from the perique. Medium in strength and body. Goes great with a creamed coffee.

    F.U.S.T.G.

    Posted by Darrell Waite on May 14th 2025

    This is a nice tobacco that I would recommend greatly. I did not experience any tougue burn. The tobacco is very silky to smoke.
