[QUOTE="monbla256, post: 314467, member: 2244"] I wasn't speaking to whether the older version was/was not a VaPwer, which I'd have to say it was as I smoked it then as you did, but rather that a firm was trying to deceive smokers, which I don't feel is being done here. It's merely a tobacco firm doing it's business as many have done before and that the business has not, in the past, been known for a lot of detail as to what they sell. They are merely selling the blend as it has been blended recently, no great effort to "deceive" anyone. And yes it DID change in the recent past and the changed version was not as enjoyed so I stopped buying it. Doesn't mean it's not a good tobacco in it's own right. To expect a "classic" to taste as it did 40 years or more ago is really expecting a lot. One would have had to have been alive and smoking it AT THAT TIME to do that and that just don't happen. Some of us were fortunate to have experienced some of these blends "back in the day" as they say, folks now won't, that's life :twisted: [/QUOTE]
