Yeah it actually does have some nic. I’d say medium? Enough I can tell it has some but doesn’t make me feel woozy. Definitely progresses as you smoke.
Nah, it's not unsmokable but out of all the other stuff I can reach for.... I took a chance and satisfied my curiosity. No need to muscle through it. I have no problem sending it your way if you want it.
Yeah I have had a few times where I thought someone was going to say something disparaging and then they come over and compliment the pipe. I've had a few people tell me too that they love the way pipes smell even with non aromatics. The only time I've had anyone say something is in a place that allows cig smoking but the pipe is too much.
I like it!! I’m a velvet fan.
Well, by god I guess it’s time to pick up a pouch!
I would smoke a lot more Granger except for that ? issue I have. What did you get from the Velvet flavor wise?
Chemistry is a strange thing. Of all the tobbaco I’ve ever smoked, granger is hands down the mildest. My MacBaren favorites I knew not to heat up but I’ve never experienced tongue bite. Only once I scorched the roof of the mouth. Never again!
As for you, BROBS! ??
Yup, only tobacco I have ever smoked that gave me Carolina Reaper Pepper tongue is Granger, but I love it?
It tastes a bit like oak barrel home made wine to me.
Got ya. That’s a description that makes sense to me, thanks!
And no bite at all. I think you’d like this one. Hell, for $4 a pouch you can’t lose.
Cherry tends to trigger my gag reflex, and I've never smoked Paladin. However, you always have to ask yourself, how long has this blend been around? The answer is that Paladin was there when Moses parted the Red Sea and is still selling strong, whereas many of our beloved premium blends have gone down in roaring flames, and I don't mean on a relight.
Sweet! Gonna run over to the B&M later and see if they have some in stock, like you said at $4.......what’s not to love?
There’s something to be said for longevity, for sure. Plus, if all we had was OTCs I’m sure everyone would find something that works but once most of us snobs get on our high horses we don’t easily get off them or tend to reach so “low” as before.
