Smoking a Flake right now on the back porch after an evening of drinking bourbon. Nice earthy tobacco flavors with a hint of molasses. Almost cigar like. Very tasty. Light pepper. Smooth retrohale. Cool burn. Strong, but not overpowering for a cigar guy. Four flakes would put me out like a ninja kick to the dong. Need to dedicate this to a small pipe. Definitely a winner!
Nic level to me is about the same as a strong robusto cigar. I bought 10 tins. Jarred 2. The rest for the cellar. This will take me a shit long time to smoke through!
Perfect pick for a MM legend. One flake takes you to a happy place without giving you the spins.
I'm chewing Rustica right now.
Interesting information, it creates some curiosity but I probably should remember the cat. Still I wonder, maybe try just half a flake in a small pipe, might be worth it.
Super delicious, but one flake is enough for me. I think a second bowl would kick my ass, and I am not a lightweight.
I have a small Moretti poker that holds about one flake. I’m gonna dedicate that pipe to this blend.
I packed a bowl of Hansom flake to chase this with, but I’m gonna tap out. Feels warm out here now. (45 degrees outside)
The only time I did 4 of those chewing gum flakes in a bowl was with Old Dark Fired and despite that not being an unusually strong blend for a Virginia-Kentucky I was pretty well saturated at 2 and a half hours. With Rustica or GHC Dark Flake I tend to smoke for about 90 (~2 flakes of Rustica) minutes in the morning and by that time I am definitely ready for something a bit softer in nicotine. So 4 flakes and three and a half hours of Rustica would put a serious hurt on me! Initially I pegged Rustica as being between Bold Kentucky and GHC Dark Flake but now I believe it is probably right on par with Dark Flake. Which is really quite substantial!
This is some strong ass tobacco that tastes amazing! Bravo!
So, I’m chewing old hard Candy Corn from Halloween.
If it’s taken you 30+ years of pipe smoking to get a nic hit, you’re a NEWBIE !! I can accomplish that on a weekly basis.
Nah, just says pipe tobacco is weak compared to cigarettes, chew, and mapacho.
Wait a minute, you've only been smoking for 22 years ya greenhorn!So, I’m chewing old hard Candy Corn from Halloween.
