[QUOTE="Kyle Weiss, post: 199884, member: 1969"] I certainly ain't gonna twist anyone's arm to try/like/re-try Penzance and "get it" (...I've had enough people do that Jonestown-style with FVF, and it kind of creeped me out--I just didn't get the hype...) but on the other hand, I don't see the same kind of rallying hype with Penzance that I do with FVF, either. Yeah, there's fans, but it's not an on-a-pedestal blend like FVF. Makes me wonder why the silly hyperbole (funny as it is...). :lol: Popularity does a lot of things to...well, anything, and one facet is a contrarian base. A lot of folks just pony up the yang to the herd's yin. Why? I'unno. A strange phenom. I see it happen all the time, not only with tobacco. Because something is popular doesn't mean it's hype, and just because it's hyped doesn't mean it's good--and because it isn't making headlines doesn't mean it sucks, either. Find what you like and smoke it happily. 8) Penzance can stick around my meager cellar. [/QUOTE]
