Never had it. The thing about Condor is it is strong, but it is very smooth and refined. Tambalouka seems like it would be very rough. I bought an American old time twist at a B&M in San Diego yesterday. Some good old fire cured meant for chewing or smoking. I have never gotten "niccups" until I smoked that yesterday. It was so strong it made happy Bogie seem like Carter Hall. I think you'd like it. And at 6.95 for a big twist it was a good deal. I got it at Racine & Laramie. You might be able to order online. They also had, by far, the largest selection of pipes and tobacco I've ever seen, including any online retailers.
