At $230us after shipping I’m going to wait until I’m back home next year before taking one for the team.

@jpberg how does it compare strength/flavour wise to tambo?
Take it with a grain of salt, because this is only me;
Tambolaka hit me good and hard, nic hit hiccups, a bit of the spinners, etc.
All good stuff.
Mapacho affected my digestive system. That’s the nicest way I can say it.
I really liked it, it I don’t know if I’ll ever smoke it again.

Good to know. Sounds like it’s time for you to get hold of some Rapa Nui tobacco.

I am traveling with my wife (of 32 years) and she speaks Vietnamese fluently. I will be exploring all the possibilities of bulk tobacco in the region, which I will take back to the States with me and attempt to blend. Should be an adventure. On a side note, thanks to Ahi Ka's encouragement (and not so subtle pushing)... I will be growing my own tobacco in 2025.
Whoa, growing thuốc lào in California. That'll be a hoot!
