About half way through the first smoke. It still has qualities of Mad Fiddler but softer. The cider taste is a bit more prominent than MF but the smoke is softer on the retrohale.
I too and in the middle of my first bowl. The tin note was pretty unique IMO; kinda like red wine soaked raisins. My very early impressions is that I haven’t tasted anything that’s all that similar. There is a tannic astringency, but it’s not unpleasant. A nice mix of sweet and savory, with the savory flavor being something I haven’t really tasted in other blends. I think it’s the kasturi or the lightly fired cured leaf mentioned in the description, but ?
. It’s not blowing my mind, but it’s tasty and interesting. Most noticeable to me is that it stands out as something “different.” Also, it tastes more like burley to me than something that’s Virginia forward. But whatever, I’ll say again: tasty and interesting.
My pizza is here, so I’m gonna DGT this bowl and see how it is after I eat

Just finished and the kasturi really dominated the last stretch.
Country Squire has it.
Living in the west I have the benefit of a 9pm release time to purchase the special editions, but then I wait for it to get to me. Currently estimated for delivery next Wednesday. I'll let you all know how it is with some age on it.
Thank you, I got some tips from friends on here, and a few phone calls, and I have four bricks coming. I just get uncomfortable when I buy outside of smokingpipes. I just don’t know when to expect delivery. Plus, I like Sykes and the boys at SPc.
Ha! No worries. I should have known you’d have the hook-ups! Enjoy!
I have my brick of Folklore sitting in my cellar right now. I haven’t opened it yet, but I get a weird spicy bubblegum kind of smell at first whiff through the plastic. It’s a strong smell even sealed, dominates my cellar just sitting there. Very unique for sure, and makes me excited to try it.
I’d guess the tin note changes a bit once I crack it open and actually jar it, but we’ll see.
By the looks of it on social a couple of B&M got them in stock for their stores. I wonder if they're breaking it down or selling as is... I imagine a 2oz mylar would be popular.
So who's going to tell cosmic that he's got four bricks of a fruity apple aromatic on the way?
If you're smelling it, you may have a leak somewhere. You may want to go ahead and jar it up.
You'll be one of five to win a trip to the Cornell & Diehl factory where you'll be harassed by the pipe thieving Baccy Wakkies while they sing mocking songs at your expense.
If I knew it was gonna be this kinda party… ?
Seriously, those brownies ? GOOD! Congratulations to all that scored. And, I’m sure those that didn’t will have an opportunity presented before them eventually. ?

My giant Hot Pocket arrived today.
I probably should and will asap. Although I do have one hell of a sniffer and I wouldn't be surprised if it is just the tobacco I'm smelling through the plastic or the residual smell from the factory on the bag.
Either way it's getting jarred.
