Shane Ireland's recent Folklore impressions....Spoiler Alert


Check out the Jan Mystery Tobacco Review if you are interested in Shane's recent views on 2022 Folklore and how it has aged so far.

Was the cigar flavor strong or prominent last year?

 

[gervais]

I didn't say it didn't age well but after reading embers comment, I recalled that the two ounces I set out to smoke got little flat at the end. So based on my experience with the first two ounces, lets just say I'm hoping what I mylared ages well.

Yeah sorry, that was meant more for Embers

 

[FurCoat]

Yeah sorry, that was meant more for Embers

No worries.

 

[MikeDub]

Sounds like Mad Fiddler Flake with DFK and in a crumble cake. I'm definitely all over this one

 

[Chasing Embers]

How can you say something didn't age well that was just released last year?

Completely lost its top note. Not as remarkable as it was when released.

 

[Honkytonk Man]

Didn't age well. Kinda went flat.

Mine is still unwrapped, hidden away.

I say hidden away, because I came across it the other day, having forgotten about it.

Just don't want it to end up like my huge tub of Granger. I don't know how many years I had it. I think it will out live next few generations in my family.

Just broke out a jar of the 2022. It doesn't seem to have the strength of the Juicyfruit scent as it did out of the box, but it's still noticeable. The taste definitely held up, I'll be going back for year two.

Side note, I nearly needed to find a tool of some sort to get the jar lid off, so I now have a great deal of faith in the seals on the rest of my jars.

 

[Singularis]

It probably would've faired better on tins.

Watch the latest Mystery Pipe Tobacco Review on SP’s blog.

Well at this rate your great great grandkids can sell that tub of Granger and retire!

I happened to be looking up a blend on TR and saw a flyer for the rerelease of Folklore on 01-25-23. I'm surprised no one else posted this sooner. I'm not getting any this go around so I figured would get the madness started.

Does it drop tonight 1/24 at midnight or tomorrow night?

I really enjoy the Mystery Tobacco Review. Sure, it is marketing. However, the January edition was sort of creepy infomercial level marketing.

 

[coming to_falling too]

This is from Tobacco Pipes. I noticed Wilkes had some a few days ago as well, but they soon sold out.

I'm excited to try some. I missed out on last drop somehow. Glad it came back around for latecomers such as myself.

 

[Chalaw87]

So... did the cigar flavor standout in last years release? Also does anyone know if there is cigar leaf in this years release?

Ernie said noonish on Wednesday… He must’ve forgotten what day it was. That rascal.

No, I did not get any cigarish flavors. It is sometimes added to enhance the mouth feel of the smoke. Most of the distinct cigar flavors come from the actual leaf touching your lips as you smoke, moreso than just the flavor of the smoke. But, it did add a certain spiciness unique to cigar blends of pipe tobaccos.

6PM, awesome, so I won't have to miss it.

 

[ChonkyTonks]

My fomo/lizard brain wants to buy this, but I am glad I snagged 4oz off of another member here a few weeks back. It is enjoyable, but I think I will see how far I get through my stash before I decide to buy it next year.
