I've already said too much... smoke some first. I don't want to change your first impression. Tell us what you think about it when you've had some.

Tried the Solani the other day and it was quite good. Not that it will be my favourite but I can't say I disliked it. It had a kind of harsh aftertaste that I noticed, but maybe I was smoking it too fast.

So, what are your experience with Solani?

I just cant stand the stuff... it just tastes like cigarettes, cheap roll your own tobacco. The smoke is bitter. The taste it leaves in your mouth is foul. It's just the worst.

I see. Well I didn't think it was that bad. I'll give it a few more bowls and see if I can get rid of the aftertaste...

FWIW, I think ABF is a great tobacco. Cost is the only thing keeping me from smoking more of it.

Quite a bit in your order that I want to try, myself. I hope you get around to sharing your thoughts once you've had some time with everything.

I've been thoroughly enjoying roughly 1:1 ABF and VA flake leavin's (whatever is left from a broken up flake gets tossed into one jar) for my morning smoke for the last week or so. And yeah, it's partially because it hits the cigarette spot...but it's a really really tasty cigarette!
