[QUOTE="MisterE, post: 406859, member: 820"] It took me a while to get straight Virginia tobacco, too. When I first tried it, I couldn't understand what all the fuss was about. I felt it to be, at best, lifeless, and at worst, a serious case of tongue bite. My introduction to Ginnyweed was MacBaren Va. #1 (which wasn't the ideal starting point I later discoverd, lol). I tried a few different blends and still had the same impression. Meh. Eventually, however, I had one of those "magic smokes" when all the sweetness came through. It happened rather by accident. I later discovered that smoking it at very low temperature was what had brought out the flavor and nuance. Then I was able to repeat the experience regularly. [/QUOTE]
