Esoterica Stonehaven
Not sure how old. One flake had a lot of crystals, one flake had none.
Virginia/Burley
Smoked in a Savinelli Roma 626
I rubbed out the flakes and let them air for 20-30 minutes, then let the pipe sit for another 30 minutes after loading it up.
After work, I sat outside on the curb with some friends.
After the char light, the tobacco smoked perfectly with no relights needed.
The smoke was smooth and creamy, with no tongue bite at all.
As I was talking with friends, I did not spend all of my energies focusing on the nuances of the smoke.
The main character I got this smoke was a dark woodsiness. It was mild with a hint of sweetness. I also get a bit of "cigariness."
I really enjoy this tobacco. It is one of my favorites now.
This was the end of my sample. Now I have to wait to see if my order at Mars Cigars processed before they were out of stock.
Keeping my fingers crossed that I'll soon have this in my cellar! :pipe:
