What he said. Recently became acquainted with Cask 7. It's now my go-to.

Altadis 1-M in the Bjarne bent brandy.

Park-Lane's Liebman's Scottish Flake in the Dunhill 4110 shell briar billiard.

H&H Mohawk River in the Nerrup Selection smooth bent brandy shape (32).

H&H Virginia Spice in the Savory's Argyll 342.

Perique and latakia do it to me too; but sometimes it's time-delayed.

Park-Lane Liebman's Scottish Flake (aka Luxury Scottish Flake), in the Savinelli smooth Bing's Favorite.

This is an old review, but it still holds true for me. If I were writing it now, I would tone down the perfervid prose a bit, but I still hold the main points. Begin Text: Now for the umpteenth time I've been able to confirm that the MacBaren "macbitey" reputation remains and will remain a...

The Ruler of the Queen's Navee, Sir Joseph, is a character from HMS Pinafore, not the Pirates of Penzance. But if you mastered the Very Model of a Modern Major General patter song when you were still in grade school, then I salute you sir.

I guess. And can only guess. From the official disclosures on pending legislation and the explanations thereof in the media, I invariably walk away with confusion and more questions than answers, as if they wanted and intended it that way. But I would hazard a guess: this is not good. Learn...

Ask for a sample of Edgeworth Aromatic (Red), if you can find someone who lives in the area in which the shop with some of it has a b&m.  Seek and you shall find.  (Hint: not me, I only received a sample of this recently from far away.) Astonishingly well-preserved for a 70s aro.  Nice birch...

If you and possibly GLP are right, then Samuel Gawith really wants us to smoke their blends at a very high moisture level indeed, including FVF! Also, some blenders may say that also because they want us to smoke their baccy right away, so we can buy more. There should be no such fear from...

I've found in my own experience that some tobaccos smoke fine right out of the tin, but even then usually with some "airing out" to benefit from the change of oxygen. I've also found however that most tobaccos do improve with some aging. Even the ones that smoke fine out of the tin benefit...

I'm very happy with my Radice Rubino billiard (or pot/billiard, come to think of it).  I must have lucked out because the stem is well molded and has a perfect, cushiony fit with the shank.  Great briar and engineering.  One of my best smokers for the last four years.  Would have preferred the...

I don't think it's your imagination or user error on the difference between the old and new Original Oriental. It used to be one of my favorites blends back in 2009. The last tin (not bulk, mind you) showed the same characteristics that you mention. This is not the only one of my favorite...

Ditto on the Mac B for me. But I suspect they're two different flavor configurations.

And there I was, feeling guilty because I had stocked 100g tin after 100g tin of my favorite MacBs. Feeling like, justified, right now.

I've been enjoying Connoisseurs Flake and Red Paramour for some years now. An iteration of Connoisseurs Flake, which some consider a deeper and closer version of the old Ed Burak classic, is Park-Lane's Liebman's Scottish Flake. I like both, but I give Liebman's the edge.

An interesting discovery. But be warned, you may have merely exchanged the proximity of stinkiness with the proximity of a fire hazard. :no:
