First Real Dislike

baronsamedi · Jun 23, 2012

I'm pretty easy going as a pipe smoker and I usually like everything I try, from a bowl of PA to my favorite Russ Ouellette and GL Pease blends. Until now, that is. I just tried Red Cap tobacco and I can honestly say I seriously dislike this stuff. To me it tasted like biting into a rotten pecan and I could only finish half a bowl before throwing it out. I felt like I should bury it out in the yard somewhere!

Baron, that description of the rotten pecan paints a very distinctive and awful picture.... 8O

Gee I think I'll run right out and get some of that!.............. :rofl:

If you've ever had a bad pecan and that unmistakable need to spit it somewhere. That's about right.

Have to keep that in mind haha

I think Red Cap is a bottom of the barrel RYO cigarette blend. Used to be anyway.

judcole · Jun 23, 2012

I think lonestar is correct.

Tambalaka (I think that's how they spell it) was the same way for me...one puff and holy sh!t, dump that crap out in to the manure pile to make it smell better.

TAMBOLAKA

Indonesian farmers toil in their islands' rich limestone soils to grow their flavorful tobacco leaves. After harvesting and air drying the leaves the unique aging process begins. The villagers roll the leaves of pure tobacco which they then bind using hand made cord to protect from the outside air. They then put these bundles inside their primitive huts and store them for 5 years as the tobacco becomes richer by the day. A spectacular blend of Cigar leaf and Burley.
