Take a Picture of Your Tobacco Thread

This thread will be devoted to how different types/brands of tobacco LOOK, in the original tin or out in bulk.


-Take a picture of the tobacco (one picture should be enough).

-You can post a link of the tobacco from your review of it or a link from another site such as Tobacco Reviews

-Please don't quote photos if you reply. When we're talking multiple pages, it's tedious to scroll through the same pics.

Let's see that tobacco!

Note:This thread was originally conceived by Vox3l. Thank you for coming up with this GREAT idea! Here is the original thread: Tobacco Appearances

Re: Take a Picture of Your Tobacco Thread

Woohoo the first post........a turd in a tin or a prawn . Haven't smoked it yet so I know nothing about it and I don't know if there is a review of this here at CS, because I'm lazy, but here's a little bit about it.

Re: Take a Picture of Your Tobacco Thread

I'm glad to see this played out! Nobody had posted in the last thread for a while and I didn't want to start a new one!

Here's Escudo, as posted in the first thread.

Re: Take a Picture of Your Tobacco Thread

One of the great humblers...



A dictionary reference to "tonquin" refers you to: tonka bean - fragrant black nutlike seeds of the tonka bean tree; used in perfumes and medicines and as a substitute for vanilla

Tobacco Reviews (http://tobaccoreviews.com/blend_deta...PHA=1&TID=1004) says a tonquin flavor is added to Tanzanian leaf that has first been baked and pressed; contents include VA and oriental - is the oriental the Tanz? I don't know what's what with this stuff but I finally bought a tin and, after the first five minutes I was ready to dump the bowl before I ruined my pipe. Dag.... what a strange taste. Lakeland-ie floral running parallel to a kick-ass stoved VA punch.

Before I pitched it I slowed down a bit and gave it a little more thought; it isn't like anything else I ever smoked. Kind of "wow" and weird. The flake, folded and stuffed, was flexible but not moist. The light was easy and the burn was steady. Only a tamp or two was needed to smoke the bowl to ash. Scads of smoke if you want it.

Over the next half hour the weird gave way to the wow factor.

Re: Take a Picture of Your Tobacco Thread

I think 1792 is like the birch beer of the tobacco world. First sip and its Yeow! What the frick is this crap? I better have another sip and investigate...

Next thing you know you get excited whenever there is birch beer on the menu.

Re: Take a Picture of Your Tobacco Thread

Murray's Warrior Plug



'... a blend of, say, 70% va and 30% burley/kentucky, with perhaps a hint of tonquin flavour. Almost black and very compressed, medium-strong. deep, rich, semi-sweet taste, slow burning'.
