Tobacco: Yellow "i" Vacuum Sealed G&H Brown Flake
Pipe: Sunrise / GBD Sable/ Flower Print Billiard Meer
Smoked both in and outdoors.



Observations
This is a dark flake tobacco resembling beef jerky with tiny sugar crystals all over. The bag note is extremely light and reminds me of a watered down soar wine. Extreme dry time was necessary before packing a bowl. I have had several bowls in three different pipes. Some were fold and stuff with a pinch of rubbed out tobacco on top and others were completely rubbed out. I had to keep a pipe cleaner on hand to absorb moisture in the bowl during smoking and when folded and stuffed many relights were necessary. The ash itself was quite powdery.



This tobacco kind of threw me for a loop as I found it so mild it was difficult to taste anything. I preferred it rubbed out as opposed to fold and stuff not only because it burned better but also the flavor was a bit more pronounced. The flavors being so mild it was difficult to put my finger on what it taste like. It has a very light molasses like sweetness with the occasional tangy note.



Comments and conclusion
This tobacco really has the appearance of something I would really like, but from sight to smoke didn't really pan out as I thought. To me this baccy was not bad, but it was bland. I did get the smallest bit of tongue bite trying to get some pronounced flavors from it.
