It is my first dive into VaPer tobacco (Virginia, and Perique blend). Looking forward to trying this over the weekend. Smells amazing.

Smoking a bowl, watching Ducks vs Chicago hockey game.

Wow, this tobacco is really good. There's a good amount of sweetness, and some peppery spice in the background. Very rich tasting that lingers on the palate. Has a very nice aroma. A bit of a head spinner as well. I was told this tobacco gets better with age, so I jarred it up and will revisit this tobacco in a year. Smoking it fresh tonight is turning out to be an incredible experience.

If you can find this tobacco, pull the trigger, highly recommend.

That sure looks great

. Question for you...how was the moisture content on this batch?

It is wet. Needs some drying time.

I just tried this tobacco for the first time last week as I picked up a couple of those boxes myself, was great, really like it. Of course the trick with SG is how do I get more?
