I'm looking for a medium/full bodied baccy that won't leave a room smelling of pungent tobacco smoke.

Does such a beast exist?
I've been smoking Buttered Rum, Wilshire and Rum Runner inside.

The wife opted for these under the mis-apprehension the lingering aroma left behind would echo the pre-smoked bouquet.

Jen wasn't too put off by the smoke not having those sweet signatures.

I figure this is a grrreat opportunity to try a baccy more to MY liking.

Yeah, I tend to push envelopes (generally with disastrous results).

The many positive reviews on Two Friends English Chocolate has piqued my interest.
As cigars go I tend to lean towards medium-full bodied Nicaraguan sticks.

A few of my favorites right now are 5 Vegas, Padron, Bahia and Perdomo (toro or torpedo size preferred).

Let it be understood, outdoors my wife loves the smell of the cigars I smoke.

Though, the concentration they leave inside the home gets me two thumbs down.

Thank you fellas. :wink:

I honestly thought I'd only get some finger pointing and laughter.

And the repeated phrase, "You're SOL buddy."
So, those two Mcclellands won't leave the house smelling like a Fri night poker just took place?

You gentlemen made my day.
Why the heck didn't the tobaccoist make these suggestions?

I pleaded my case and thoroughly explained the situation regarding smells and my wife's aversion to them.

Instead, he quickly pointed to their "help yourself" bulk blends.

That's a darn good idea.

Giggers, leave it you to show me the other way to skin a cat.
I just asked Jen.

She said she'd be up for trying a couple of puffs.

This is sounding better and better.

I mostly like non-aromatics, but for room note, I suggest Altadis Queen Anne's Revenge, Va/bur/Cav/w/rum flavor.

I would suggest Gawith's Rum Flake
It's full bodied with a good amount of nicotine. Full flavored, no bite and a decent room note.

++1 on the Peterson University Flake. Definitely a full flavored tobacco which also has the added benefit of leaving a very pleasant room note.

OK...

So I added University Flake to my cart @ P&C:

I'm no stranger to skirting state and international embargoes.

Just curious why my state is playing hardball.
FWIW, the wackos in King Co. (read: Seattle) are the dominant voting block.

Washington state wants to prevent you from avoiding

The very high state tax on tobacco .

Maybe a local pipe (cigar) shop? Unless

You know a guy who knows a

Guy.

Good luck .

Yeah, I know a guy who knows a guy.

I figured taxes were involved. Just wanted confirmation.
No worries.

Thank you for the explanation.
