Quite nice actually! It seemed to dry the smoke out and it did not need to be re-lit very much (only 2 or 3 times). Perhaps I'm getting better at packing? Anyways, the flavour of the EMP which I've tried on its own, was not so strong and overpowering and neither was the sweetness of the Ave TQ. So in the end a nice smelling smoke that actually had some flavour to it. Perhaps I'll continue to introduce EMP to my palate in this fashion.
