[QUOTE="jj1015, post: 31917, member: 207"] I don't think it's my smoking technique -- I think I'm very senstive to one of the components. I've tried hundreds of blends over the years, and I've only had this reaction a couple of other times. A lot of people claim this is a bite-free smoke for them, and I'm not inclined to argue with those kinds of numbers. I think tongue bite has as much to do with personal chemistry as it does with smoking technique, and I'm genuinely curious as to what might have triggered that reaction. I had identical reactions to GL Pease's Cairo and Two Friend's Bed and Breakfast, but never anything else (although Westminster, for some reason, came close to doing that kind of damage and I avoid it for that reason). As for taste, aroma, and burning characteristics, Walnut is fine. I personally prefer Morley's Best, Epiphany, Gatlin-Burley, and Old Hollywood, but that's a purely subjective estimation. I'm glad you've found a blend that you like so much! [/QUOTE]
