So I got drop shipped via dismaltrade fr mentioning I hadn't had this baccy yet, though I promised my self no more open tins til I whittle away at my current sample stash


I couldn't help myself, smelled mildly sweet of prunes or plums right out of the tin, rubbed one coin out and packed up a va cob (no drying time)

This lights flawlessly, 2 matches for the entire bowl, starts with the sweetness of the vas and interplays with the tangy spiciness of perique which intensifies as the bowl progresses, stays lit pretty effortlessly

I think it has a descent dose of vitamin n, highly reccomend with great thanks to the dismaltrade I see more tins aging in my future

Seen your Post, and Thought why not, I got the Tin, Pulled out 3 coins/rolls waded them up and stuffed them in my Savinelli 622KS lit it up and bam, Nice tobacco of the month i am just glad I had already pulled the trigger on buying some 1 1/2 year aged tins of tobacco.....It is very nice all the way around. Very mild smoking tobaccos with nice rich flavors and some Pepper on the retro. The first time I smoked this I was little disappointed. However smoking it in the Right PIPE matters. I haven't tried to rub it out yet. I will on the NEXT bowl I smoke of it. Crazy thing is it looks like it went up in price since last week. Guess they were expecting the extra flow of buyers. Bought mine from a PVT party. Glad to have been able to give it a try.

Spot on review and yes, with age it is even better. If I could had only one smoke this might very well be it. Morning, midday or night it's enjoyable. Better than escudo even.... I have better than 20 tins and you didn't see me sending any of them to you. That should tell you something!
And you're welcome glad you enjoy it

Anybody else get a taste of this over the past few weeks?
I procrastinated on ordering mine, and it's just now en route...
Would love to hear some more thoughts, though!
