Cigar Bum Drugstore Pipe Tobacco Reviews

[BryGuySC]

Tobacco: Borkum Riff Vanilla Cavendish
Age: 6/11/2013
Blend Contents: Burley, Cavendish, Kentucky, Virginia
Pipes: “The Pipe” full bent and a Missouri Meershaum
Tin Note: Vanilla
Prep: No drying time. I pinched some off the brick, and loaded the pipe using the Frank method.

Notes:
The aging time has melded the tobacco into a brick. It broke apart easily into a nice mix of multicolored strands of tobacco.
The pipe loaded well, and I headed outside to light it up!
I got the char light done and began to enjoy this gifted jewel of the grocery store!
Well… that’s about as far the enjoyment went.
My tongue went numb almost immediately. I couldn’t pick up a note of anything, save a little vanilla and a bit of chemical.
On the positive side, it did burn, and it did make smoke! The smoke was of a good consistency.
I can't, in good conscience, suggest this to anyone.
