    First things first, outside of the cello it smells like a vanilla Tatiana.

    Second things second, it has a sweetened tip. Not as bad as an acid, but definitely sweetened and flavored. The whole bottom third to the band is sweetened. The top 2 are not. Cold draw is vanilla bean.

    Third things third, post light, it takes like the cold draw. Amazing. Not saying amazingly good, but amazing. Not as harsh as an acid for sure, but as harsh as the Dominican candela I smoked yesterday morning...at least on the retro.

    Thanks Frank, interested to hear your thoughts at the end.

    In many ways, it was a one trick pony. I think that's probably because the pipe tobacco dominated throughout. The light white pepper disappeared after a while. Once I got down to the last third, I could get a little brown sugar, maybe that was the sweetened wrapper burning?

    @ScotchnSmoke sux lots of large wéiners. And tons of small ones.

    Thanks Chris. I had kind of put it together when he came on. I had previously read about him buying and reproducing the Nat Sherman blends. When he said is wasn’t one of the Ferio Tego limited I had gotten pretty close.

    If it don’t bother me, it don’t bother me. Just leave me alone.

    Welcome back @Derek! A minute indeed!

    Super fruity Goliath from @Rdp77. Awesome smoke, thanks Rusty!

    Glad you’re enjoying it Frank...but that soup definitely screwed up your palette 😂
