[QUOTE="mike_68, post: 193433, member: 1856"] Ok...so I've had some time to get myself in a place to offer taste\smoking impressions of ConYan, so here goes: Having been to the middle East I have a good understanding of what dry is and this was shipped to me very Saudi Arabia-ish..now I think that is a P&C thing because the LJ Heart Burley I ordered at the same time was the same way. In my dad's words it was "drier than a popcorn fart"..but I digest... Given a tad bit of rehydration, this is almost at perfect. Still burns a tad quick which is a shame because it is SO TASTY! Bag aroma is solid burley with no pretense of anything sickly or syrupy. THIS is tobacco. There was some rough cut, chopped up tans and browns giving it a bright look..easy as pie to load and pack.. Charring light seemed to set off the nutty burley right away and it reminded me of when I first picked up the pipe. It was a brand new taste... By quarter bowl I could taste the cocoa essence on the back of my palate but the up front taste seemes.like citrus! Now THAT is neat! Around half-way something else crept in to the flavor mix..what is that?!? Ahh, pecan...roasted pecans...very nice indeed. Tons of smoke and never needed a second match, my only issue is that it ended too soon from the moisture issue. I WILL purchase again and do hope our newly created blenders will have a crack at another blend soon ! Good work gents! [/QUOTE]
