[QUOTE="Kyle Weiss, post: 398348, member: 1969"] Embarcadero, if really pushed to answer, is probably my favorite tobacco of all time. Its versatility as being good fresh to getting surprisingly dark and mellow with a few years of age, the mildness and yet honest "tobacconess" it provides give it just those few, difficult marks higher than others in similar category. Never too much nicotine, and I always feel a little bummed when the bowl is done. Fresh Embarcadero is a really interesting thing: it's picky, does not play well in unkempt or non-dedicated pipes, and takes some time to get to know. The subtlety and variations from such a simple mix have kept me entertained tin after tin. It likes to be smoked slow and with the utmost of attention to lighting, drawing and tamping. She earned the name "Princess 'Barc" for a reason. Aged Embarcadero is also equally interesting: it's wholly forgiving, mellow, can be smoked with a little less attention and gains a particularly chocolate-like character. I have yet to smoke a more versatile, fun, finicky, rewarding and challenging tobacco. Embarcadero leaves me wanting more at any and all stages. 8) [/QUOTE]
