Yea, this is a loose cut mixed with small flakes of about 2" by 1", composing about 25 to 30% of the blend. The rest is a mixture of golden, brown and black leaves, of obviously high quality.
Yea, the casing in the tin is rum, my God it's making me thirsty! Somebody, give me my ration of rum!
Lighting is rather easy and the smoking is mellow but tasty, the flakes slowing down the combustion, preventing eventual tongue bite and adding a nice kick. Nicotine wise, it's a fair intake, nothing to make your head spin.
The casing is bordeline on the taste buds attack, but smoking it slowly and letting the bakkie dry out avoids it.
A nice, different tobacco, I liked it and I think I will buy some more tins and let them age, to see what it will give.
