My dad used to smoke it all the time and I would often times open a pouch and smell it, etc. I remember it being moderately dry but not crackly when you smoke it. But then again, it may have been made by someone else back then.

SWR Aromatic is a very good blend too. It's called an aromatic but it's not like some typical goopy aromatics; it appeals to a lot of non-aromatic smokers. I'm not much of an aromatic smoker and SWRA is on my top ten list.
