Before and after running a chunk through the Space Case grinder

Wow, that grinder does a great job grinding that tobacco. What are your thoughts on the Dark Plug?

I like it, though it seems a little lighter than Dark Flake? Definitely a full and heavy smoke, but the flake seems just a bit more full if possible?

Well further down the bowl it's definitely getting more full. This stubby Savinelli Pot smokes perfect with this tobacco!

Andy sent me a sample of GH Kendal Dark Plug. Easy to slice and prep for pipe. From first light, it was strong. It’s very spicy, strong earthy and bright tobacco flavors. Its a Virginia and burley blend but the Virginia tobaccos are Dark fired variety so it’s not sweet. It’s a Kendal tobacco but I get no flowery or soapy flavors. It’s intense. Slow smoking brings out the best this tobacco has to offer. Heavy nicotine hit, a real head spinner. Nice strong tobacco.
