Odd question, but I find it very salty. I’m speaking of the tobacco of course😉 Anyone else notice this? Any other tobaccos that have a salty flavour? What would make a tobacco taste and feel salty on the tongue? Any general opinions about this blend are encouraged.
This only happens to me with latakia blends after I burn out on latakia. An overload issue. If I take time off from latakia it goes away.
Yes I've experienced a little saltiness with many blends. I think some people refer to this as savory. Mississippi river is so mild and flavorless that a tiny bit of savoriness really jumps out. It is an extremely mellow crossover blend that really is more like a aromatic. But it does make loads and loads of white smoke. Tobacco taste? Basically non-existent. If memory serves, Mississippi River tastes a little ketchupy, a little bit like barbecue sauce also, and a little bit salty.
I think this flavor absolutely comes from some sort of topping or dressing that they add to this tobacco. It seems like it has a tremendous amount of flavorings added.
