[QUOTE="Kyle Weiss, post: 389900, member: 1969"] I still like the current Erinmore Flake a hell of a lot, the post Murray's stuff being actually better (gasp!). Here's the thing I grokked about Erinmore Flake that seems to evade some folks' classification: it doesn't taste like it smells. Now, those with no disconnect between the major parts of the human palate may disagree, but what we smell is different than what we taste, yet they are connected. Eat or drink your favorite consumable with a plugged nose. Half-enjoyment will soon follow. I'm pretty convinced Erinmore's sole contribution, besides being a fascinating curiosity, is to confuse the pipe smoking world. Erinmore Flake is what I've only been able to call a "scented" tobacco. Wherein Lakeland Old-Granny-Panties and most aromatics are pretty heavily sauced in various juices, flavorings and olfactory burnables (not all of them enjoyable to the masses), Erinmore Flake stands nearly alone smelling like a stick of fruity gum and stopping there. Don't like it, but dig the tobacco? Let a fresh tin "gas out" or even leave it open for small periods of time, and the scent will all but disappear, leaving you with some pretty good flakeleaf to set ablaze. It's not an aromatic in that classic sense. Those looking to get away from a sugar high would enjoy it, those into non-aros ought to give it a chance if they haven't. 8) [/QUOTE]
