Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note
Jun 12, 2023 Strong None Detected Very Full Tolerable
There is a distinct wood/spice/fruit tin aroma. The cake separate easily. Ready to smoke from tin. Burns nicely with a velvety feel on palate. Quite a full bodied and strong flavor tobacco. No linger to speak of and no bite detected. Ideal nicotine content for me. The Latakia is very present, but not overpowering. Nicely balanced.

Reviewed By Date Rating Strength Flavoring Taste Room Note
Feb 11, 2023 Medium to Strong None Detected Medium to Full Tolerable to Strong
Tin note of pungent sour smoky and tart fruit. Tobacco is a brown, dark brown and black marbled Krumble Kake. Moisture content is great. Kake breaks apart and rubs out with a little effort. Burns slow with a few relights. The strength is medium to strong and nic is medium. No flavoring detected. Taste is medium to full and very consistent, with notes of floral, smoky, herbal, spices, wood, leather, incense, musty vegetation, savory, dry, tangy, citrus peel/zest, fermented sour, ripe sweet fruit, bready, mildly bitter, a sweet grassy background note, and a peppery retro. Latakia is leading with Virginias and Oriental/Turkish supporting. Cavendish is cheering from the cheap seats. Room note is tolerable to strong, and aftertaste is great.
