[QUOTE="Kyle Weiss, post: 217575, member: 1969"] More true than not. More ways than not. It was brought up recently, and now I can't find the thread, asking what tobaccos should be flakes that aren't. I figured it was a silly thing to ask, but finally, people started answering "...all of them." I found a strange, natural equilibrium in flakes that I took for granted until I chose some Squadron Leader today, the first time in a while, and I felt like a derp-headed fool trying to smoke it. I must have lost some of my touch being so spoiled by the goodness, even-burning, effortless packing (can you say...stuff and go?--okay, maybe a little breaking up of the chunks...) and smooth-burning of a good flake. These ribbons....were they packed right? Did a piece just clog my draft hole, and kept returning like a breeze-swept piece of paper on a fence? Where's my damn flavor? Wait...tamping...again? Are you kidding? Aarrg! :lol: It was a good smoke, but geez, talk about high maintenance. I began wondering how I could start re-compressing them in the tin. Curse ye, ribbon cut. May they ALL be flakes. (...or plugs....) Sorry, had to rant. Gotta keep up my ribbon-bacca kung fu up to practice. :x :x :x 8) [/QUOTE]
