Sillem's Green

One of the best things I ever smoked was Sillem's Black, so it is about high time I explore the rainbow and go Green! This one certainly has some fruit flavoring wafting off, and yeah, I can smell some pineapple in this Pina Colada Aromatic, which is certainly more inviting than the Panama Jack's Pina Colada laced blend.

The cut is a bit moist and retains some wetness in the thicker unrubbed bits, so you may want to let it air out a bit, conversely I would imagine the "sealed" bag it comes in will let some air in over time, so consider jarring this one ASAP. As I am impatient I dove in while damp, and honestly it burned great with few relights. The first few puffs tend to be somewhat sharp from the citrus flavoring, but nowhere near as tongue bitey as Sillem's Blue lime nonsense (avoid). While the flavoring is not refreshing as the drink it is modeled after, it is a pleasant puffer offering some Aromatic variety. While I certainly understand other reviewers categorising the flavor as strong, I went with medium since the flavor seems natural and I associate a strong flavor with cheap artificial toppings.

Sillems uses some quality additives atop quality tobacco, so I feel it is worth the extra cost, but if you are a first time Sillems visitor, make sure you go Black at least once!
