Penzance Revisited

I was very lucky to acquire a bag each of Stonehaven and Penzance back in 2011. A customer of one of my online shops ordered these bags and ended up not being able to pay for them. The opportunity was there and I was able to acquire them. I recall trying the Penzance and Stonehaven at that time, I was left underwhelmed. The flavors were just not there for me. So I jarred them up and sat on them for 3 years.

What a difference 3 years age made on this tobacco. The flavors came alive. Some sweet, some bitter, some zest, the complexity is what really impressed me. There's all kinds of flavors going on in this tobacco, at the same time, and it is all good. Very rich tasting with every puff. Even the room note is fantastic. Ok, now I get why this is talked about so favorably in the reviews.

Looking forward to revisiting the Stonehaven next.
