Firstly, this tobacco needs to be purchased in a large 7oz can, worth approximately $16, which is worth the price. Secondly, canned tobacco does indeed have a smell of engine oil or oil additives when opened, but please do not be discouraged. Let the tobacco dry thoroughly and then use a big bucket to smoke. It is not like the typical Latakia, but rather a seasoning like jazz, half and half, which is very sweet and has a nutty taste....Read More
There’s a reason this is one of the few Wessex blends that is always in stock, it’s foul. I find it hard to believe that the same company that produces Burley Slices can turn out this monstrosity, did no one at the factory smoke this stuff before putting it on the market? Farkas is spot on with the tin aroma and right not to smoke it, I on the other hand thought I’d give it the benefit of the doubt and regretted it immediately. The unmentioned topping is piled on, there’s no way an unstopped blend could taste like this, as to what the top is I honestly couldn’t say but it doesn’t smell or taste natural and is incredibly overpowering. The tin went in the trash, I wouldn’t pass it on to my enemy. A note to the people at Wessex; do yourselves a favour and totally overhaul this blend, go back to the drawing board and start from the beginning and keep it natural please....Read More
Look. I mean... who is smoking this stuff?? Dear god. When i first popped the tin i was very excited to allow my sense of smell to bask in what this was all about. No reviews going into it so what the hay. Upon first whiff of the tin note.. I mean... look i can really only characterize the scent by saying it smelled like an unrefined petroleum-based byproduct. Unbelievable. I had to keep going back to it weeks later to make sure i was smelling it correctly, or that the pungent gas pump fuel smell would vaporize off! It hasnt! I still havent smoked this and its been a while since i bought it. Im a bit afriad to pack this into my pipe. And the texture of the tobacco inside the tin reminds me of industrial machine crud! Who is smoking this??? Is this suppose to be what it smells like. I cannot imagine this to be a satisfying smoke. And for safety reasons i wont smoke it. Also this was NOT a ribbon cut, it was an unpleasant looking cake. As if i opened up a tin of plum pudding but recieved toxic waste instead....Read More
