No balls needed. Just some free time to enjoy.
It is, IMHO, one of the best tobaccos available. I cellared it very deep last year. Cube cut or rubbed out as below, are all good methods. Needs drying time for sure. This is an excellent VaPer curly cut to my tastes. I'm good for the apocalypse at this point.
One of these days I am going to have to take the plunge and purchase me some Curly Block; however, after this post I am not sure I would be able to get past how veiny the outer leaf looks.
I've done the math and the weight-to-curly-per-bowl averages out to the same cost as Escudo over time for me. So I decided to stock up for the long haul. The sticker shock is real, but having some in the cellar is priceless.
