[QUOTE="monbla256, post: 237982, member: 2244"] Well, I finally had the "opportunity" to try this Lakeland staple last night at a local B&M I go to on Wed. evenings. One of the guys there had finally gotten his order in and was enthusiastic in sharing some with those of us their last night. Tonquin bean is supposed to be a sort of vanilla scented/flavored topping but from the smell that came out of his freshly opened tin somehow it had LOSt any semblence to vanilla! Instead it was a very cloying "old ladies soap" scent and TASTE when lit ! This has to be some of the wettest, stickyess tobacco I've encountered in my years of smoking ! The scent of this tobacco is STILL on my hands after washing twice last night and after I finally got the stuff lit I could only smoke about 1/4 of the bowl before I dumped it out ! The owner of the shop asked us to stop smoking it in his shop as he was afraid his HVAC system would keep the aroma and not be pleasant to others coming in. My friend was very dissapointed in it and all in all it was not a pleasant experience for any of us last night! Now I need to do a salt treatment with my GBD Century bulldog I tried it in!! For all you folks who like it, I'm sorry but I have to dissagree and for me, this has to be the WORST excuse for a tobacco blend! I've tried it, 'nugh said :P [/QUOTE]
