I popped a tin of new tobacco to try a few days ago and I did not like. In fact I wont even finish it!!!! First time this has ever happened. Usually i finish and will never purchase again. It is somewhat strange how I enjoy more 2 or 3 star rating tobacco's over the highly recommended 5 star one's.

It is G L Pease Triple Play. I really like Jackknife Plug so I thought I would give this a try. It wounds my heart that I really don't like it. I guess I can't like them all! Please do not let my own opinion discourage anyone from trying.

Everyone has different tastes! I do not like any of the Frog Morton blends. These are a favorite of many pipers! Not me. You just need to experiment and find what you like.

Is it the type of tobacco that you don't like,or just a particular blend? For example I have yet to find a straight Virginia that I enjoy smoking.

It is the blend. It reminds me of burning electronics. and you need a hammer and chisel to tamp it.

I am not a big fan of C&D blends, but my son in law loves em. Doesn't stop me from trying them though. They tend to make me nauseous. Lol, suffering is good for the soul though.

Ive tried Cornell and Diehl tins that most people rave over and when I smoked them, the tongue bite was so bad I could even do a second light. Some people are just that way :puffy:
