Recommend Moisture-Ready Blends With Mild Nic?

[ahouston]

Hi!

I don't enjoy drying my tobacco, and I don't like flakes. I would appreciate recommendations on a tobacco that is mild in nicotine and is ready to smoke from the tin or pouch.

Some of my favorite blends in terms of flavor:
Skiff Mixture
Commonwealth
Sir Walter Raleigh

I don't mind a slightly aromatic addition, but I primarily enjoy tobacco forward flavor. Love lats and orientals.

Thanks!

Sail yellow is quite nice, I've been smoking it a lot recently.

Almost any C&D or GLP Latakia should float your boat.

Esoterica blends although this is not very useful as they are difficult to obtain

The D&R blends would probably be up your alley. Something different, but within your requirements, would be Match Elizabethan

You can smoke almost everything out there without drying. Just don't puff at it.

Drucquer & Sons blends are excellent right out of the tin. Trafalgar is fantastic.

And pack it lightly.

Most tobaccos are tinned at a moisture level that's a bit higher - sometimes a lot higher- than is ideal. Learn to love drying time. Or dry out a ton of tobacco so you'll not have to wait on the next smokes.

G.L. Pease blends don’t use any PG, just a side note there, so if you were inclined to dry a little, since these are PG free, they dry fast.

I’ve certainly not smoked all of the GLP blends, but Telegraph Hill is a nice one, not much moisture you could smoke straight from the tin, as I’m sure there are a lot of his blends, ready from the tin.

You can smoke any tobacco straight from the tin—just not advisable.

GLP Kensington is ready to go, and a little Skiff-y. Less complex and maybe slightly less full than Skiff, but a real good shot of turkish right between the eyes and easy nic level.

The current Amphora Full Aroma seems to work for me, direct from the pouch. I've been keeping it for smoking in my car, and I like it a lot. Tastes like tobacco, and not like an aromatic at all, to me.

I just open a dozen or so tins over time, and after the first or second bowl it is dry enough for the remainder. If it starts to get too dry, I have a waterproof tub that I throw it in with a moisture pack and all the other tins I don't smoke often enough.

Try Pease's "Westminster" if you really like latakia.

This is a peculiar request, i.e. a moisture - ready tobacco. Most blends come moist in the tin or pouch.

Do you have a source for that?

I would be very surprised if this were really the case.
^^see what I did there

I've found all the Peterson blends I've tried have been perfect upon opening.
Robert Lewis blends (2 tried) were good moisture from beginning.
GH & Co Dark Birds Eye and Kendal Dark come perfect for firing up...

Any chance we could see a picture of this set-up? Is it a boveda (moisture) pack? Do you take the lids off?
