Miss the McClellend's Tongue Burn Yet?

[jaytex1969]

If so, here's your surrogate:
Home & Hearth's Marble Kake
I'm truly enjoying the flavor as it simultaneously scorches my tongue.
YMMV :nana:
(Sorry, no ketchup smell)

add ketchup = no tongue bite. Honest. 8O

I fixed it for you:

add ketchup Jameson = no tongue bite. Honest. 8O

 

[rhoadsie]

True, Jameson fixes everything. :clap:

Somebody please stop me! :rofl:

 

[rhoadsie]

Yep, too moist. Needs drying time.

Damnit Anthony, you've got me wanting cake. :rofl:

Damnit Anthony, you've got me wanting cake.

Uh, I thought all your pipes were broken in by now! :P

 

[anthonyrosenthal74]

Damnit Anthony, you've got me wanting cake. :rofl:

I feel like a terrible terrible person! And it's lovely! :rofl:

 

[jaytex1969]

Well, ow we have plenty of cake but I think we've lost our marbles...

I never did get tongue burn while smoking McC's blends. They're all so tasty that it forced me to slow my roll. I suppose I'll be smoking them even slower now.

No Burn here! Always flavorful, smooth and cool!

Yup. :clap:

I never got it to burn either. On the other hand with the quantity of humectant they used, I am not sure it was ever supposed to burn.

Never got burned on any of their VA's. The only McClelland to ever scorch me was Frog Morton's Cellar. Even thinking about it causes my tongue to tingle.

McClelland's tongue burn?

I know, right? McClelland is one of the most forgiving tobaccos to my tongue. I do know what you’re talking about though, Samuel Gawith’s used to burn the shit out of my tongue. I think it all depends on how much you enjoy the flavors you’re getting though as you will eventually acclimate to the Blend you’re smoking. It also could have a lot to do with technique but some blends just tend to nip at first but I swear, if you persevere you’ll have a stronger, more well rounded tongue. :nana:

I stopped the SG burn by thoroughly drying it. Borkum Riff is still king of tongue bite here.

 

[bassbug]

True, Jameson fixes everything

Except a craving for some decent whiskey :nana:

smoke in a calabash or with a 9mm filter... double the flavor , double the fun :P
