This is why I don't like Dunhill baccy, I get this same heavy spice on the tongue from EMP and Nightcap.I don’t think it was tongue bite. I tried to smoke it slow purposely so I could see how long it took to go out between draws & how often I needed to puff on it. I just got a red pepper taste & smell from it in mouth & nose. Got it from the tobacco when I opened the tin before I even put it in the pipe too. Not a bad thing. I enjoy spicy & peppery. Just not first thing in the morning.
Glad to know it’s not just me! I’m still developing a pallet. I don’t necessarily not like it. It’s just not what I want first thing in the morning.This is why I don't like Dunhill baccy, I get this same heavy spice on the tongue from EMP and Nightcap.
The pipe smoked good. I could get into this. Not something I’d do every day, but every now & then. That tobacco was definitely not a morning blend for me though. I guess I could tell that when I opened the tin before I even put a flame to it, but I wanted to try the pipe out. It was pretty spicy tasting to me. I’ll have to find something a little lighter for the mornings when I want a bowl.
