★★★★ Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note 0 minute ago
Very Strong Very Strong Very Full Pleasant
Condor Plug is my first experience with this style of tobacco. It is a singular experience that some love and some hate. I love it! The taste is a very powerful floral, musty, licorice, dark fruit experience. It reminds me of potpourri, old books, damp leaves, prunes, raisins. The tobacco taste is sublimated by the topping to be sure but when the topping is so good, who cares? The nicotine is present but I don't think it's as strong as some say. It has a satisfying amount of nicotine for me and I'm a former cigarette smoker.
It requires a fair amount of relights and as a true plug (made from whole leaf, not ribbon cut) it requires both more time to prepare into shavings and some drying time. If you are able to get your hands on this you will not be disappointed.
Pipe Used: Stanwell 217
Age When Smoked: At least 3 years
Purchased From: Gift from a friend
Similar Blends: Gallaher Limited - Condor Long Cut (Brown), Gallaher Limited - Condor Ready Rubbed (Green).
