It's interesting that many say this tobacco was overly moist on opening the tin, because mine was bone dry! That factor alone has undoubtedly effected my experience, but you are now fully informed.

I rehydrated the tobacco a little using the damp cloth over a bowl method. To smoke, the tobacco burned well, and had a good deep latakia flavour. However, it was a little too one dimensional for this smoke-blower. Indeed, it lacked complexity of any kind and failed to beguile the mind or seduce the senses.

I sense that at some point this was a great tobacco, but being allowed to dry out caused it to loose most of it's allure. A great shame. A finer experience can be had from tobaccos of this type with Esoterica's 'Margate' or G. L. Pease's 'Charing Cross'
