This tobacco is so refreshingly herbal! It never bites. It smells yellowgreen and floral, a bit of mown hay too, in the tin, which is a nice treat when loading up my pipe. When smoking, its taste reminds me I’m enjoying a product of nature - something that was farmed, its leaves once tended to and cared for as growing, vibrant, plants. Those around me when I light up this leafy treat have remarked that it smells pleasant (they’re prejudiced to expect stench from someone else’s smoke). And lady nicotine comes along for a ride here all dressed up in a floral sundress.

I really like this blend.

Since March or April 2022, batches of this have changed. Not for the better, in my book.

Newer batches smell completely different in the tin/bag than before. Gone is the floral/hay scent Yemeni scent of late summer. It seems to burn hotter, and its taste is more akin to an English blend, perhaps, than before. Darker somehow.

Newer batches of Engine 382 have lost the magic that had made it a fairly unique, and oh-so-pleasing smoke.
Pipe Used: many. Vauen cavalier especially
