tonight's tobacco
Smoked a half bowl of Sophisticate in my Peterson tonight, and it was sour. The pipe has been cleaned, and all I smoke in it anymore is aromatics and VA's, so it shouldn't be the blends. Had a nice nuttiness to it, although still rather subdued in flavor. I should let it dry out some more before trying another bowl. Hopefully it's just too wet. Either way, it's much better than Dark Star.
I made the mistake of trying Dark Twist tonight. The shop gave me an ounce or so, and I think I'll leave it at that. The smell alone is inexplicably wrong, and the taste is a cross between ghastly and tolerable. Granted, it was also too wet, but tobacco ought not to smell like that. I think I may have to cut my losses on Mac Baren, if everything is such a far cry from tobacco.
