I smoke the premium Players here in Canada and would really like to order some whole leaf that would at least come close to it. I think the only thing that really makes the American cigs taste different is the addition of Burley to the Virginia leaf....no Burley in Canadian cigs at all.
Only thing that puts me off trying the whole leaf is remembering how bad 'roll your own' tube cigs used to be...I remember years ago that rolling your own with tubes and a little injector became popular with folks trying to save a few bucks....I could never stomach them.....really really bad!
I smoke pipe, but I personally am convinced the tobacco from whole leaf is superior in quality and flavor to almost everything available commercially. If I were to smoke cigarettes, I don't think I could smoke anything but Don's leaf. If injecting tubes really turns you off to that degree, I'm willing to bet you're a one beer brand guy too. I think if you get some quality tubes and a decent injector, with an option mind, you'll soon understand that Whole Leaf Tobacco isn't just about saving money.
