[QUOTE="Kyle Weiss, post: 287605, member: 1969"] Gee, thanks Kaiser. :lol: Mon, I wish the current Sobranie was just a little different in how the cut it...I struggle with the stuff a lot, and unless I smoke it exclusively and up my practice with really thin ribbon-cut stuff, I get thrown off by my flakes, plugs and other stuff. :lol: Meh. Hey, at least I found a Balkan I enjoy! Sir Lock, Presbyterian was one that I couldn't stand. Hated that stuff. So, I suppose it's safe to say B. Sasieni is nothing like it? :lol: *shrug* Now, with SL, I can say B. Sasieni less spicy, less "buttery," and thinner-tasting, but has a more savory and dynamic flexibility. Case in point, smoking it in a pipe right now that the briar has a slightly sweet taste to it naturally, and I get faint whiffs of sasparilla and root beer every so often--it won't last, the briar hasn't been broken in, but it makes me laugh. SL in a new pipe usually just gets edgy and REALLY spicy, so I will break in a pipe pretty good before I throw any of that stuff in there. B. Sasieni is a lighter-weight Balkan but no less interesting comparison, if not direct, at least in the right zip code. 8) [/QUOTE]
