[QUOTE="ofafeather, post: 19162, member: 223"] Hi, all. Smoked my first rope yesterday. SG Black XX. I was a little wary at first, because of the reported intensity of the nicotine power. I popped the tin which included one long section of the twist and two short ones. I took one of the small pieces, sliced it up with a sharp knife, rubbed it out and let it sit for about an hour. I loaded up an estate Greenwhich Dublin which had just arrived from an ebay win. The first few puffs were nice and full, not too strong. Overall, I enjoyed this tobacco. It was consistent it taste throughout the bowl and had many cigar like tones. My one complaint is that I had difficulty keeping it lit. I may have to cut it finer. Any other suggestions? How does this compare to the G&H ropes? I'm eager to try some of the Sweet Rum Twist and maybe even the Cherry Twist. Since the G&H is only available in bulk how does it do in jars and does it benefit significantly from aging? Any thoughts on other ropes and twist available in the US? Thanks. Eric [/QUOTE]
