Hello there...any recommendations for tobaccos would be appreciated?
Someone else may have jumped in, but I have to live up to Seanchai's belief that the tobacco fanatics always show up in the forums in the morning.
MBV tobaccos need a *loooong* steep time. Some will say 6-8 weeks - I tend to see it more on the 8+ week side.
Coumarin pipe is a lovely, mellow vape. USA Tobacco has a little bit more of a bite to it, but it's still one of my go-tos.
My vanilla tobacco is finally coming into its own - but it needs at least another 3 weeks, in my book. Buddy of mine falls in love with it at about 4 weeks, though, so I just may need them to mellow more than others.
My east coast tobacco is 4 months old, and I still am not in love with it, but it's ok. I seem to like deeper, richer tobaccos - this one tastes lighter and sharper to me than the others.
I have Ankara Tobacco steeping. It smells lovely, but doesn't seem to be quite ready for prime time yet. It's also only 4 weeks old.
I also have Virginia Fire Cured Tobacco steeping. Haven't dripped that one yet, so got nothin' for you there.
Oh, and I forgot to mention the 555. There are a lot of folks here who love it. My bottle and I don't get along so well. But I also haven't tried in in a couple of months. Thanks for the reminder to go dig it out of the box and see how it's matured.
Hope that helps!
