It is pure Havana tobacco. The country is Cuba. If you like cigars, you can smoke it all alone, but it is very strong and it is not the same pleasant smoke you could have with a real havana cigar. The best thing is to use it as a blending tobacco. Really it is very difficult to find a pure havana tobacco for pipe. This is not exceptional, but it is quite good. My mark is 6.

I finally cracked my dry 1 pound brick of Partagas, expecting it to smell/taste slightly different from a cigar (why I thought this, I don't know). It smells/tastes like a cigar. I'm reminded of an old German film("M"), where men are smoking stubby cigars lodged into their pipes, perhaps to keep their fingers free of the muddy brown of the smoke.
As others have suggested, I'm going to use this as a blender, (O Jeez, not another amateur!) and I am hopeful I won't completely ruin some nice, mild virginians, etc. with this dark snake bite. I will use it as one would a hot sauce. When I want a pipe, I don't want a cigar.

A friend of mine gave me this tobacco just to try. I enjoy smoking cigars once or twice a year so this tobacco should be good to me. The first bowl I liked it (the discovery of a new blend maybe). The second I've found it too dry and too tasty. The third and last it was the same even remoistened. Maybe some cigars smokers can enjoy it but I found it too tasty (almost overwhelming in the end of the bowl) for me.
