Exactly one week into my pipe smoking. I smoked an entire tin of Flake, and half a tin of NightCap when my new shipment arrived. So this review is half a tin into Royal Yacht and you know my full blend experience.
"Royal Yacht" had me expecting some pompous blend for tanning on my schooner...now that I have smoked it, it seems to me like something a young Navy Man might have said when you asked him where he was in 1944..."on the Royal Yacht"...and what he meant was the "H.M.S. Tiger hunter"
It lights excellently and seems ready to load straight out of the tin with no dry time.
No matter how hard I bite on my pipe and puff puff puff it never gives off a hot smoke...in the other side, when I forget I'm smoking my pipe and am sure it must have gone out, Nope, no matter how little I pay attention it stays lit for me...
I really like this stuff.
I haven't gotten any exciting flavor from it. It's like smoking an unfiltered Marlboro red I guess... strong!
I don't know why they call this an Aromatic, I don't taste or smell anything. My university flake is more an aromatic than this.
If they cased it in anything I would say it was nicotine, and they used so much that they were required to call it an aromatic. Next time you are on night guard duty... this is the stuff to keep you alert.
