I done bin afraid to order this badass tobacco till I saw some in a shop and bought it in a moment of machismo.

Anyway, it's really, really, really good. Very subtley flavored... a real soft lakeland-y type essence, but way in the background, and the leaf is evil dark stuff - very stout but like a mean cigar, you know to go slow - you know the hammer is in there if you go hard on it.

Anyway, I'm really impressed.

Good to know, Sas. I'll give it a try. I've been subsisting on SG Black XX. Now that's like smoking steak, blood, and saltwater....delicious!

Never had the chance to try many ropes, but I have been seen smoking SG Black Irish XX a few times. How does it compares? (I love XX but darn thing likes to come at ya when you lest expect it and suddenly you are all sweating and dizzy...)
