Has anyone else tried this powerful smoke?
I am not intending on posting a scholarly review. I don't know pipe tobacco well enough.
And I am not an experienced smoker, just a dabbler in the pipe arts.
just to say that I finally figured out that this moist tobacco had to be left to dry then broken into flakes for use. It would not stay lit directly from the tin. so I cut a small piece from the end of the rope and letting it dry for a day worked. However I was not prepared for its affect. 4 small drags and I decided it just wasn't a pleasant smoke, perhaps I better come back to it later. I like nasty peaty scotch, and strong Belgian beers, and so on. This stuff is not for me just yet.
In about 5 minutes I suddenly felt my head spinning!!! It took about 20 minutes to clear. Yikes.
So ill have to stick with the aromatics for now.
