Do the Twist 🍁

Product: Mac Baren Dark Twist 3.5oz
I’ve been on a mission to try as many blends as I can and by this point in my fairly new smoking journey I’ve tried somewhere between 100-200 blends and this is one of my favorites, amazing stuff! 5 STARS 🔥

New to pipes and after spending several hundred dollars trying to find the right tobacco(s) I think this will be a "go to". I'm not going to wax poetically about the nuances of this tobacco because to be honest, my palate isn't up to it, but in a nutshell this is a satisfying, and pleasant smoke. To me it is full bodied and has a subdued dark sweetness that I enjoy, it burns well, smokes relatively cool (if you do your part), and goes extremely well with my morning coffee. Between this and their Vanilla Roll cake I've found a couple blends that i can say I truly enjoy....Read More
My new favorite

This is simply heavenly. Dessert in a pipe. Smells like a molasses treat and tastes nearly as good. And for room note, it beats many candles I’ve burnt.
Very pleasant smoking experience

Wonderful smoke. Coins break up very nicely and pack easily into the pipe to note has barbecue barnyard smell that titillates the olfactory. Overall pleasant smoking experience overall with the mild sweetness. Stays lit and smokes easily with few relights if any.

Lovely blend but must not be rushed. A sip here and a sip there makes for a great smoking experience with this blend.

Every time I come back to this tobacco I am happy. It is constant! The maple flavor is subtle, perfect for the discerning pipe smoker wanting a bit more from tobacco.
Stoved 200°/300 minutes

It's awesome. Tin notes are a deeelicious rasin oatmeal.
After the stoving, opened can after 20 minutes of cooling, to let it breath. Gave it 30 minutes, and loaded a bowl. Taste is worth the effort. Jarred the rest. It isn't a substitute for aging, but does meld flavors like aging. I went and b
ought two of the one pound bags. On the date code it was 3/21. So already has a solid year and a couple months of age. Anybody that enjoys this should stock up, as the age makes the purchase a smart choice for the cellar or blending with an aged Virgina. Very tasty....Read More
Sweet coins

Trying this one out on my coin series. MB makes really nice coin cuts and these are no exception. The flavor isn't my cup of tea as much as some others but I think it's still a good, high quality blend. On the sweeter side of the spectrum, so if that suits you, it will be enjoyable.
