Bueller?...Bueller?...Bueller?

It's a great review. I am more and more becoming a latakia smoker, seeking at least some of it every blend it seems.
One issue: Not having been a cigarette smoker, I don't quite get the point you were making about nicotine content. Are you saying it is relatively low or relatively high?
thanks.

@tslex - I believe Adam was looking for nicotine and didn't get much.

Tslex; Kevin's got me figured.
As part of my review notes, I always write a little blurb about the nicotine content. Some blends will leave me craving a cigarette while still smoking the bowl (Dan Sweet Vanilla Honeydew, Balkan Sasieni), while others will kill any cravings for hours (Irish Flake, XX Black Rope, Tambolaka...ok, so Tambo sets me up for days...). As someone who is striving to kick the coffin nails, this becomes somewhat important to me. When I write the review up, I usually transcribe this info (namely for cigarette smokers), but perhaps I am not using the clearest of rhetoric when doing so...I'll work on simplifying this for my next review.

Thanks!

Hmm. I was really excited to try and get some of this but honestly it sounds to me just like Frog Morton Across the Pond. Which is of course REALLY good. But just not smoky enough for me. So comparing it to FMAP, what are the differences?

Awesome review Adam!!! Will be picking up a tin for my next TAD!!

I think Adam's review was a textbook correct example of how to write-up a tobacco.

It gives one who is totally in the dark on a blend all he needs to know before making a decision to buy a tin.
I would encourage everyone to use his review as a rough template and try to write a review of their own.

I'd really enjoy reading everyone's opinions and impressions; and Luxury Tobacco Reviews.com is the perfect forum for publication.
Adam has already worked out a lot of the details for us. Just read his excellent, almost scholarly examination

of the issues in his blog: Tobacco Flavours and Nuances.
Nice work, Adam. :clap: I hope you write-up many more blends in the near future.
