So, despite seeing some pretty glowing reviews of SHPC's Great Hiatus (and also loving their VR Blend to death), my first impressions were not terribly positive. There was some unnameable funk in the tin and in the smoke that I just couldn't get behind. So for about a month, it's been hanging out in the bottom of my box in which reside my opened tins of latakia blends.
Today, however, I decided to give it another shot.
What a difference a month of being open can make. This turned sublime! The funk is still in the tin to a far lesser degree, but the smoke... Ahh, the smoke. Sweet, tangy, a little spicy. This has really transformed so much over such a short amount of time, I'm really quite awestruck.
So, in short:
~Time makes fools of us all.
~Don't like it? Leave it be; come back to it.
~NObody expects the Spanish Inquisition.
