D & R Tobacco - Windsail Original Blend.
Recently I've smoked and reviewed three D & R blends: Ramback, Rimboche, and Two Timer. They were all too dry and this lessened the results for them. I thought this might be different, but I was wrong, it's exactly the same: crispy. Once lit this imminently ruins the experience: fast burning, hot, dry, smoke. It's a shame as this seems as though it would be a tasty Va if it weren't for the hydration issue. Windsail also bites me, something rotten.
It's not all bad, I guess: the nicotine's mild and the room-note's pleasant, but these features don't rescue it; I hope the bin enjoys it more than I do!
Not recommended.
