Sample Orange Z MacBaren Club Blend circa 2000
Dr Grabow Grand Duke straight
indoors


This sample is a dark brown ribbon cut,fairly moist.In the pouch
it has an aroma that reminds me of honey flavored cereal, Something
like Nuts&Honey but without the nuts.

Allowed to dry for an hour, and packed using 3 step method.It was still
reluctant to light and required constant attention or relights.

Right from the start and continuing thru the bowl this sample had a
constant tongue burn/bite.There was a clear taste of pepper that seemed
to overpower anything else.There was none of the sweetness and kind of
a soapy feel that made the pepper thick.The smoke was full and thick,
but the burn,even with a very shallow sip,took away from the enjoyment.

This is a tobacco I would use to cut with an over sweetened, dry blend.
While I'm greatfull for the opportunity to smoke it,this is not a blend
I will be stocking up on.


Thank You Pete for the samples,and You and Tobias for letting me join
in on the fun.With your generousity and guidence I know I am learning
from the best.
