Tonight is apparently international pipe day.
So I am reviewing blend #2
It was dryboxing since yesterday night.
Same pipe as usual, same packing method. Except I am starting to be somewhat good at it. Or not suck.
The blend smell sweet. Like the cakes we'd get in our lunchboxes in elementary school. Not quite vanilla but not sugar.
Mixed with some dry tea.
Its very dry. For once theres at least two bowl in my box.
Packing it I feel like the gf might prefer the avent of that blend. Might have to let her try it.
Packed loose but with an ok draw. The draw has sweetness to it but nothing much.
Lighting with matches for comparison with the two other blends.
So light tap light. The first draw is a lot less sweet than anticipated. Theres a bit of bitterness that won't stay and the flavors erupts. They remind me of chocolate coffee with a dark tobacco cigar feel. Its very enjoyable.
Trough the bowl the smoke is thick and flavorful with no bite. The finish is on the long side and sweet. Kinda almonds chocolate.
The flavors remain in the dark coffee style with some nuts. theres a flavors that lingers that I enjoy but can't quite describe. It is similar to what I once had on an old Padrons cigar but in a different direction.
Having left it dryboxing for that long must have helped with the flavors. I certainly will have to revisit the two other blends with a longer dryboxing.
I could manage to relight only about three times trough the bowl.
This blend seems to burn lower than the two other's. At least for me.
The room scent is awesome.
Overall it is a very good blend that I'd recommend
@USHOG your blends are all amazing. I can't decide which one I like the best, but I like them better than my David's Blends.
