First, who thought "I think I will add Banana essence to some Virginia tobacco for the helluva it"? Second, ChasingEmbers, or others who have tried it, how Bananaish is it?

I still have quite a bit set back. It has a very faint banana aroma, but I don’t taste it in the smoke. It has never WOWd me, but it makes for an unusual smoke, when the mood hits.
I don’t get banana bread from the GH&Co blend. What I taste and smell is more akin to those banana taffy candies. Kinda gross if ya ask me. Of all the GH&Co Tobaccos I wish were available to us in the States, banana, sadly, was never one of em. : (
Why in the wide world of wonders can’t we get Westmorland Slices over here!?!

I was gifted some by chasingembers and have to say I quite like it. I get banana runt out of it, or maybe sort of a Nerds flavor. It's odd, but I like it. I've been disappointed not to be able to find it anywhere to purchase.
I'm curious if they can even get it. I've looked everywhere outside of calling random B&Ms on some off chance.
Yikes, wander if this is the same tobacco?

It's gotta be. No way they'd bother to blend two separate Virginia-based banana shag cuts. If it's out of stock because of flavoring rules in the UK, does that imply nothing will soon be available in that line?
Banana was the flavor I always picked out of my box of Runts and tried to pawn off on somebody else.... nobody ever wanted them :rofl:

Westmorland Slices is a relatively new product and a damned fine one too. I've sent a few samples over the pond (got another to send) and it was loved by all recipients bar one!
You really need to harangue your local suppliers to get some in stock...it will fly off the shelves without a doubt...rich, dark and smokey...yum :
