Just got a bag of Coniston Cut Plug. Almost no sauce whatsoever. Don't know if it was manufactured that way, the environment P&C stores the tobacco, or what

In the bag and in the pipe, it barely smells of almond and a slight hit of fruit, sort of like a very mild Sam Gawith KC Flake. Compared to a jar from 2020 I'm finishing up, they don't even seem like the same tobacco. The 2020 jar is rich in rose geranium. Oh well - I'll jar up this new stuff and either give it away, or play with it some time in the future.

That sucks. I had a similar experience with the last batch of Glengarry Flake. It was very light in the flavoring compared to previous batches
