At first I didn't like this much...too light, not enough flavor, etc. Then, as I smoke a few more bowls, then a few more, and then started to reach for it as a 'go to'...it dawned on me: this is a subtle and nuanced experience. I still can't taste the "fruity casing" or even smell it. What comes through to my sensors is...a musty perique-ness...a light sweet-n-sour...subtle orientals. This stuff takes a few to understand I guess - but Steve has touched it with his artistry for sure.

This is now one of my favorite VaPers. I found the fruity topping a little strong at first but after letting this one sit out open overnight, I found the fruit smell had dissapated a little. The flavor is absolutely perfect. Well aged, top quality tobaccos make this one a real treat.
