So glad I found this article before placing my first RYO tobacco order! I’m switching from American Spirit cigs(also sometimes smoked Marlboro Gold), and found Kentucky Select Gold to be a really good alternative. Other comparable brands tried were Smoking G Golden(advised in your article as a match to Marlboro Gold) blended with Good Stuff Gold, paired with Zen(17mm filter) white tubes or Shargio(20mm) white tubes. Both types were very good matches, and at a fraction of the cost of the uber-taxed store cigs! I was also pleasantly surprised by the fast shipping times… Ordered on a Thursday morning and received Saturday afternoon!

Hi great question, thanks for asking! We 100% agree with Tim. Dionisi, The Good Stuff Pipe Tobacco comes pretty darn near to Marlboro! Also, I smoke the Gold flavor because full-flavor regular (Red) really packs a punch, Gold hits just right for me, but to each their own! You can score a 1lb or 6oz bag to try! If you purchase from Buy Pipe Tobacco you can get a 16oz for only $13.29, which is about $4 cheaper than your local smoke shop!
