D & R Tobacco - Rowland Silver.

I should have realised this wasn't my day when the ring pull snapped off. So, out came the tin opener. I kind of wish I never bothered! To put it politely I feel disesteemed towards it.

My initial thought was 'how dry?!'. Not a little dehydrated, but crunchy. First bad point. However, I carried on! The blend's made of light and medium brown ribbons and has little in the way of a tin-note.

It lights, as I expected, without any hinderance, but burns faster than I'd like; again, that's putting it politely. It goes like lightning! The tobaccos seem quite even in proportion, and taste ok. It's the topping that ruins this, rather than a rich, chocolate, top-note, it just tastes bitter, and nasty. Because of the hydration, well lack of hydration, it burns too warm.

Nicotine: mild. Room-note: not the worst.

Rowland Silver? Although I don't like to vilify a blend there's no way I can give this a recommendation:

One star.
