That's a really excellent write-up. Thank you. Funny, it was a somewhat negative review, but it wound up making it more appealing to me. Any changes since? Also, you say "synthetic" but seems likely to be an actual NET. Thought all of Wlad's tobaccos are. No?
Thanks. It did have some positives, and it was easy to finish the bottle, but for Ahlusion it was more of a miss than a hit for me.
As far as I know all of Ahlusion's tobaccos contain NET, but some also contain synthetic tobacco flavoring. DC I'm pretty sure is a hybrid NET/arti based on the flavor I got. It did have the oily bass notes of dark tobacco, but I also tasted a synthetic Cuban Cigar flavor. I'm pretty sure Sahara is a hybid NET too, but with that one I really like the synthetic flavoring used.
My guess is how much someone likes DC will be based a large part on how much they like the synthetic side. The NET aspect that I noticed was solid, but seemed to play a minor role.
*note, this is my opinions based on my own guesses of how these are made, not based on confirmed facts.
