English, Va, or aromatic.....

A very nice BOTL sent me a sample of escudo which I planed to fire up here soon and I was wondering which type of backy this is.

One of the best VaPers of all, a true benchmark tobacco. Enjoy!

Re: English, Va, or aromatic.....

my very, very favorite of all time.

if you're a little skeered of the "coin/curley cut" shape of the flake... just take a "coin", fold it in half, put it between your palms, then gently rub it together until it seperates into thin ribbons... depending on the size of the pipe, you will probably use 1.5 "coins" total for a bowl.
if it feels a little moist to the touch, let it sit out for 30 minutes on a plate/bowl/napkin (and i would advise rubbing the tobacco over whatever it is you intend to let the tobacco sit in).

the backy has been sitting in a vacuum packed bag for a few months. I hope it's good to go

Re: English, Va, or aromatic.....

it should be, but i was saying that it may still be a little too moist, and should be left out to dry for about 20+ minutes.
