This afternoon I stopped by the "Old Virginia Tobacco Co" in Manassas VA. They had a decent selection of Savinelli and some tobacco blends. I spied a few tins of tobacco and saw they had a few of Old Dublin. I'm still trying to make sense of the dizzying variety of tins available, but had read Old Dublin was a good way to transition from the milder blends to tins. A little research here saw a lot of recommendations for it, so I was looking forward to the first bowl.
I'm smoking it now in my Boswell, but it still seems too much for me. Like the Samuel Gawith Brown #4, it almost makes me a little woozy about halfway through the bowl. It sure smelled nice and mild opening the tin but is just too harsh.
I've only been smoking for about a month now. Is it me, or does it just take a while to work up to this type of pipe tobacco? Has anyone else had this type of experience trying tins?
