Iway Ries Three-Star Blue

People rave about the pouch aroma of this blend.

I really think it's nasty-smelling. Am I missing something here?

I guess you're missing what everyone else is smelling.

In any case, I find that 9 times out of 10, the aroma in the tin has little to do with the flavor you taste in the pipe.

Eh, they threw it in with my pipe order (great gesture) but it just didn't do it for me.

Dude, would suggest saving such in the future. Maybe we can generate a box pass of pipes and bacci, of which you can share that awful stuff with us all..just a thought..samiam
