Pesse Canoe

[WerewolfOfLondon]

That stuff is truly rotten. Bought a couple tins, had one bowl, awful. Now I'm concerned the other tin is a sitting contaminant. Never thrown out an unopen tin, first time for everything.

This is the reason I haven’t bought any to date. Mold epidemic

I have three jars containing the three Pesse Canoe blends that I purchased upon their release earlier this year. When they arrived, I transferred the contents to mason jars. There is zero evidence of mold in any of these jars. To call moldy tins an “epidemic” is sheer hyperbole.

I got the aro as soon as it was released, and it's fine. Maybe we're the lucky ones though

It was probably just batch specific. These things happen. I’m not put off by it - just glad I caught it same day of purchase. When I get a chance to return to the store, the gen manager said we can open some up make sure the one exchange it for doesn’t have same issue

I was surprised at how these flakes crumbled. It didnt really rub out/delaminate but quite literally crumble into doughy pills.

Guess I got lucky. I bought a tin of Oriental Flake and Latakia Flake at Boswells in October. I have the same batch, but cracked it open and no mold.

Went this morning and got a swap out from the fine gentlemen at the B&M. I look forward to trying this out in the coming days

I’ve had one of each (oriental, lat 20 and lat 40) and in Canada they come in sealed generic pouches rather than tins. No issues with mold but I also notice what you’re talking about. If I’m honest it‘s kind of off-putting and strange. Feels like how particle board is made in woodworking.

To each their own but I found all of them a bit suspect quality-wise, even if they smoke ok.

Its entertaining to me how many brands tin tobacco especially for the US Market. Imagine Peterson and Orlik's demise here if they came bagged.

Anywho, yes, it is concerning. I cant imagine it being caused by humectants alone.
