Just ordered Tabac Manil La Brumeuse looks like a love of hate baccy

[masspiper]

I just placed a order. After reading reviews that I could find this seems like a baccy that I will either love or hate. For those of you that have smoked it would love your thoughts.

Wow that is a new one on me. The reviews seem great for the most part, similar to what lead me to tracking down Tambolaka a while back. I think the Brumeuse will be better. Interested to see what you think about it.

I have smoked 4-5 bowls and like it. I regard it as a change of pace because it is quite different from anything else I've smoked. HOWEVER - my wife would like me to stop smoking it since she says the lingering aroma makes her feel ill. So I suppose I have smoked my last of it. Anyone who would like a healthy amount gratis send me a PM. You can't beat free for a an untried tobacco.

I really enjoy this, and it makes a great change of pace. It burns fast, and I really enjoy the leathery/peppery cigar notes. Many will hate it, but its worth a shot. One bowl is not enough to judge though.

My remaining stock is spoken for. Thanks for responding. I hope you like it. I totally agree with phonomet's comments.

I received a couple ounces from Bryanf. I don't think I could describe it any better than did phonomet.

Kind of a Burley-esque, dark fired Va, cigar-like amalgam of flavor -- pretty unique, but it doesn't compare favorably with

the more popular "standard" tobaccos we normally smoke in the US / UK.

Smoking my first bowl now thanks to elpfeife. Thank you, I appreciate it.

I don't know what else to say about it but that phonomet nailed it. And I like it.

The jury is still out for me. It is pretty dry and I would like to hydrate it a bit. I still haven't found the right pipe yet.

I smoked it in a cob and a group 4 sized briar and it just went too fast. I have a huge Peterson I would like to give it a smoke in.

The flavor is there as described, definitely an interesting smoke.
