A lot of tobacco reviews, I take that back, MOST tobacco reviews, leave me scratching my head. What, I ask myself, did I just read?
The reviewers go on and on about the cut and color of the leaf, it's burning characteristics, the beginning emergence of this or that particular leaf, charring light, mid bowl emergence of said leaf, citrus undertones, licorice overtones, when said leaf asserts it's particular taste, etc. etc. etc.
That's all well and good, but WHAT DOES THE BLEND TASTE LIKE? WHAT DOES IT SMELL LIKE? That's what I am wanting to know.
Please give me something I can relate it to. Taste like apple--- Taste like cherry--- Taste like plain tobacco--- Taste like Spaghetti--- taste like whatever! I want to know what it taste like, and smells like.
All the rest it just fluff. Interesting, but still fluff.
I feel like some reviewers want to sound like wine connoisseurs, or just ramble to fill space. I appreciate people taking the time to try and let the rest of us know what a particular blend is all about, but please include what I, and I suspect, most people, want to know most of all. What does this blend taste and smell like. If only to you, if nothing else.
Thank you for your efforts anyway, but I'm tempted to use an old Joe Friday quote: "Just the facts, ma'am". The rest is interesting, but please include what flavor and aroma you think it most favors. Thank you for hearing me out.
