Man, no wonder my mouth was all tingly! There's probably more nicotine in there than I've had up to this point smoking cigars!

Thanks for the opportunity, IHT. From this experience, at least, now I know where some of my limits lay and what kind of moderation (in pipe baccy0 I need to look for.

Re: Pipe Forum - Blind Review #2

eh, all in fun. gives us something to do around these parts.

now to figure out what blind review #3 might be.

also, if anyone else wants to do their own, go for it. start your own, have some fun, i don't have a monopoly on blind reviews.

Tobacco Cut & Appearance = plug cut
Ingredients = dark virginias
Smoking Conditions = 50 degrees
Evaluated Aspects scale of 0-8:
Smell in Tin: 6 not a bad aroma, fairly strong
Packing : 7- tobacco feels good in hand
Lighting : 5- seemed like it wouldn't burn properly, got a fairly dark, unburnt ash
Taste Quality: 5- tasted basically like a full bodied cigar that had been plug cut
Room Note/Aroma: 7- good, rich cigar-like aroma
Overall Burning Quality: 5- see lighting notes
Tongue irritations: 6-slightest bit of bite, probably my fault
Nose irritation: 8 - none
Satisfaction of smoke: 6 good tobacco for a strong baccy lover
After-taste/Finish: 6- not awful, I decided to DGT my first bowl because of the taste, thinking it would improve, the aftertaste was tolerable

Impressionistic Evaluation (choose one):
___this is one of the best of this genre.... (20 pts)
___I wouldn't mind paying for it... (15 pts)
__x_only if someone gave me a tin, etc (10 pts)
___I don't like it, but can understand other may (5 pts)
___one of the worst tobaccos I've ever smoked (0 pts)

TOTAL SCORE OUT OF 100: 72

Freeform Thoughts/Impressions: I probably need to give this tobacco another chance. For me it wasn't much different from a cigar, and I really like the mild and nuanced quality of a pipe, so this probably isn't a tobacco for me. However, like I said, I'm gunna keep trying. Even if I don't like it, building cake is always good
my comments are filled in
