The cut is quite different to what I'm used to. Those are slices from a cake (pressed ribbon). After rubbing out, I end up with a kind of rough cut quite similar to the old timer burleys such as Carter Hall.
The pouch aroma is delightful: Boozy and nutty, sweet maybe almond something.
Mechanics are easy: A tamped gravity fill is enough, takes the a light and a half to get t going, and burns down with little relights.
The aroma is pretty sweet in the beginning. A kind light caramel with a spicy rum scent. Those dark and spiced rums, Jamaican style maybe. The nutty burley develops and quickly takes the lead. As the bowl progresses, the topping dissipates and you get this full on burley taste with a sweet twist.
If I smoke this too fast, it can turn bitter. I just let it cool down and it's back to its normal delicious self.
A 9mm filter was useful to me as it does produce quite a bit of moisture. There's no bite or burley mouth. Just an easy flavorful smoke.
I've smoked multiple bowls of it in the same day and do not get tired of it. To me, this is a perfect all day blend. Not too much nicotine, easy pack and easy smoke. I regret not getting more of this!
