I bought four 8-ounce tins of Palmetto Balkan from two sites upon its release this week.. My plan is to smoke one throughout the summer and cellar the other three. I love that they are individually numbered.

My initial impressions are that it was a bit dry out of the tin but ready to smoke. It was good but not particularly interesting or flavorful. I expect that like most Balkan blends, it will greatly improve with age.

I purchased one. I still have 1 of the previous batch to taste sometime first...
There are so many good tobaccos available to us.

I got this year and popped the 22. I smoked it all weekend. It's going to enjoy some fresh air and I will continue to enjoy it as it ages open.

Glad I got some!

Woah they brought this back? Glad I got 2 of the OG , if I like it. Good to know it will come back around once in a while. Hear so much about it , now I'll have to crack one sooner than later.
