My first one and it's VERY different than any stick I have had before. The amount of smoke I'm getting is just insane, and I get the whole "coats your tongue" thing now. Smells wonderful, and the retrohale is smooooth. I'm only a little ways into it. Peanuts? Rye bread? Wow. Maybe I've nothing to fear from Nicaraguan tobacco after all. This isn't the peppery, strong burning that I've experienced with it previously. Yum.
