![]() ![]() But Plante is very infamous here, known for making the most chemical and nasty tobaccos.so it took a while before I stuggeld through buying this blend. ![]() At first i thought I wouldn't like rum toppings, but after I like Salty Dogs Plug, as well as Navy Flakes with rum that concern was gone. In the past I hestitated for a long time before buying this. I bought this, because it was cheap and my father started out pipe smoking and I thought we can share the pouch. Rum and Maple was a real surprise to me the first time I smoked it. He told me that I had not been the first to complain and the pouch was not tainted, no, they had changed the tobacco. I brought the pouch back to my tobacconist of the time, and complained that I had gotten a tainted pouch. I learned this from the next pouch I bought: I threw it away after a few pipefuls refused to be anything but goopy, horribly bitey, burning unevenly and otherwise misbehaving (with the sole exception of the room note, which was still delicious). Then they changed the recipe (sometime in the early 1990s). The room note was beautiful, the taste helped in getting me off the BCs, and the tobacco burned down easily, without much maintenance, right down to the bottom of the pipe. At the time, this was an affordable tobacco (just the right price bracket for a college student), and my first pouch rewarded me with a very nice, sweet, somewhat rum-ish scent. I first tried this blend during my Black Cavendish phase, a long time ago. ![]()
