I ordered my first 1.5 ounce of Golden Dice about a month ago, I was a little leary when it came in a cardboard pouch. What really caught my attention was a an advertisement stating CD-ROM Inside. The next eye catcher was MIX TOBACCO BEFORE USE! Okay I can live with that, but I have yet to find the CD-ROM. As a puffer who enjoys an aromatic tobacco I was up for the tantalizing of my taste buds to be fulfilled. This tobacco is Extremely Mild, the Strength #1 Level on the package makes that very clear and after smoking a bowl I came to the conclusion it was way too mild for myself. I have smoked a lot of aromatics in the last 40 years, although Captain Black put the aromatics on the market in the early to mid 70's to stay. I believe I would encourage a new smoker to try this one first just because it is Extremely Mild, No Tongue Bite and the aroma is Very Pleasant. My problem is when smoking a tobacco of this type I entend to inhale and I have with no coughing.

I approached this tobacco in a rather strange fashion. I ordered a pouch of this tobacco about eighteen months ago. Shortly after it arrived, a friend opened the pouch to smell the contents. The pouch was soon misplaced, and I only found it again a few days ago. I have smoked a few bowls since then, and have found Golden Dice to be a good, though unexceptional, smoke. The first light is mild and pleasant enough, but the stuff refuses to stay lit. When, eventually, the bowl is burning well, I get a flavour I can only describe as "pipe tobacco-y." I should think it's discretely sweet enough for anyone's taste, but no individual flavour stands out. Complex it is not, but it is certainly much better than the drugstore blends I have tried. Give it a whirl, you may enjoy it.
