I decided it would be fun to test out how much weight was lost due to the excessive moisture of my tobacco. The answer will come in like a day because I probably can't dry it out enough tonight, this is taking forever and has come wetter than the wettest tobacco I have ever had, even FVF! This way I can see if there's any merit to the rumor Samuel Gawith tobaccos are extra wet in order to increase their profit by selling less tobacco for the same money. I personally believe it is just a preference of theirs for a different reason, promoting faster aging perhaps? I do notice SG blends while wet do tend to produce bloom a lot quicker and often comes with some bloom on it right out of the container, which might also be attributed to the fact most of my SG blends are really dark, which makes it also a lot easier to see.
