[QUOTE="puros_bran, post: 14411, member: 10"] The first batch of Westminster,was it just a year ago? ) was wet and muted to me,very balanced but muted. The moisture level was adjusted at the factory or something because I love this stuff now. It is a weird smoke because it is easy to taste the seperate components or not. They fit together perfectly but the flavors are easy to spot. Westminster is like a well executed Salt&Vinegar Potato chip. Not in flavor, but in the merging of flavors. When eating a chip its easy to pick out the salt,the vinegar,and the potato chip flavor, but they fit together well enough that you end up questioning why you are spending your time trying to seperate them in your head. The Va's and Latakia in the mixture is topshelf but the Orientals are amazing. 6 months tin time doesn't phase the ability to pick everything out. I hope long term aging doesn't but it probably will. Even if it does this will be a fine smoke. I have two 1lb tins sitting in a box in the closet. That's the most of any 'tinned' tobacco. I guess that says something. [/QUOTE]
