[QUOTE="Jordies, post: 95365, member: 1094"] Has anyone tried either of these blends by C&D; Old Joe Krantz and/or Haunted Bookshop? I'm not a big Burley smoker, yet I have smoked some fine Burleys (Solani & Peretti). I purchased a tin of both of these a couple of weeks ago. Both are Burley/Virginia/Perique blends, with Burley dominating. Needless to say, I am not easily bullied by high nicotine blends. But these two blends, yikes..... Left me feeling queezy for hours, seriously. Before smoking these two blends, I felt like I could say I liked the way that all tobaccos taste. I no longer stand by this claim. The tobacco had a good tin aroma, slightly sweet, but nowhere near overpowering. Once lit however, both of these blends had the same taste. The way that an old stale smoked cigar smells, that is how both of these blends registered on my palate. I couldn't help but continue to smoke down the bowl, with the hope that the flavor would develop into somthing more. It did. It gradually began tasting like the way that two old stale smoked cigars smell, then three, then... The aftertaste lingered how quite some time, gag. I have been a fan of several C&D blends for quite some time, and still am. It surprises me that I can honestly say that I derived no pleasure from smoking these blends. [/QUOTE]
