i don't know... i need to work on the review sheet.
any input on what should be scrapped, i'll listen. i've asked Evan, and he's PM'ed me some good thoughts on it as well.

the sheet isn't just for me, it could be a tool for you all to review your own tobacs for future references.

I just smoked some more of this, I still think the flavor is excellent, but it is not that complex, I think I would enjoy this most in the morning

I really do think a common sheet would be a great idea for the forum though as it provides a true commonality in how a review is performed. Maybe it's only used for special cases like this, but that's enough reason in my mind

slight off topic, but FYI....

I personally like Dorchester quite well, a little darker and smokier than some VA/Pers, as was noted. I am about to crack a tin of Dunbar as well, so for those of you that liked Dorchester look for a bit of a review shortly on the Dunbar. Dunbar seems to be considered to be Dorchester's big brother

exactly. it would NOT be a requirement at all.

ps - i had my next to last bowl of this on the drive in from lunch. bottom half of the bowl is more perique filled in flavor.

Good to know .... that was my first taste of Dorchester & never tried the Dunbar. I migrate to Penzance and Stonehaven quite often in Esoterica blends ... just hadn't gotten around to trying others.

Fine, I'll just take my ball and play elsewhere.

there are times when i go and re-read what i have typed and shake my head, not in disgust, but ammusement at what i could've possibly been thinking at that time.
