Actually taste the rum.

as in Fribourg & Treyer's special brown flake, but is definitely present, and is stronger than the flavorings in most of the other ropes I have tried except brown rope aromatic.
This is smoother than the plain brown irish X and quite a bit sweeter. Has a good taste and nicotine is exactly the same as in the maple twist.
Has a very light smoky taste in the background.
This came wet and needed to dry overnight. It smelled pretty good in the bag and I cut up a 1/2" slice across, then a few times lengthwise as I have found these smoke a lot better with a coarse cut.
I was expecting the top note to be faint and burn right off as in the others but it surprisingly lasted to the end of the bowl. This smoked a bit wet so I had to fling the moisture out of the pipe a couple times, then use a pick to work the tobacco off the bottom of the bowl where the moisture was accumulating on the first smoke. On subsequent bowls I simply dried it out more.
The flavor is very rich without any bite (I smoked it in a larger pot churchwarden with thick walls) and extremely satisfying. I will definitely cellar a few 500gr boxes of this one.
Leaves a good scent in my moustache and beard and my wife likes the smell of this one.
It has a very good nicotine level and is milder than the cherry, which is so far the strongest of the ropes due to whatever it is topped with transfering a lot of the nicotine, but none of the ropes are as strong as the dark flakes or dark plug.
This is a must in anyone's tobacco cabinet as sometimes a good rich tobacco with a just right nicotine punch (which this has) is called for.
The aftertaste from this is better than most anything I can think of, and it is very easy to smoke due to how smooth it is.
All of the ropes are a 5 star smoke so far and this one really shines due to the ever present rum topping, which did not burn off. I could still taste it at the bottom of the bowl with the same intensity as the first quarter of the bowl.
Nothing bitter at all in this one, smooth, very rich, full tobacco flavor without any strange toppings nor any tongue bite. It won't bite even if pushed as long as it is dried out sufficiently.
I would highly recommend this one to both veterans and new pipe smokers alike....Read More

Every restocking comes with a hike in the price. A year ago, it was $102 for 500g. The year before that it was $68. Now it’s selling for $123. They almost doubled the price in 2 years.

Good enough to chew on.

y’all on this page. I bought a pound and soon I’d like to buy another before all hell breaks loose. As far as the tobacco: the rum is slight, the smoke does not bite at all, the retro is wonderful; it arrives a bit moist so dry it out. I cut coins out of it, but I’m also a bit unorthodox and I rather untwist the rope, peel the tobacco leaves off and cut it into fat, dry ribbons. World class leaf for sure. Willing to trade away all my other virginias for more of this blend....Read More

rly prepared you can push your puffing hard without bite, but relaxed sipping is how to get to the deeper flavor. The sweetness lasts to the last puff, but never gets cloying.
