Hi Bill,
Way early in this thread you had rave reviews for Quick Nic's RY4 but later on it dropped quite a bit. What happened with that one as I guess I couldn't find what changed in the many pages of this thread? I just received some 2 days ago and tried it yesterday. As for RY4's, I end up comparing everything to Tribeca as I really love that one. So that is my established base point. Quick Nic's RY4 appears to me very woody and strong right now. Good tabacco base but I'm having trouble detecting the caramel and vanilla notes at all right now. Perhaps they are being overwhelmed by the strong woodiness and tabacco coming through right now so I'm going to give that one some steep time before trying it again. I can smell the caramel and vanilla undertones but simply cannot taste them yet. And I'm really getting no sweetness at all. Right now to me it smells much better than it tastes.
