Seattle Pipe Club: PLUM PUDDING 8oz

我是个新斗客，听斗友说这款斗草很好，一直期待能够品尝到，现在终于买到了。

First time purchasing from 4noggins. They shipped the next business day. Will definitely use them again moving forward

"National Plum Pudding Day, eh? Alright, the price came down... I'll bite. Let's see what all the hubbub is about."

Described as a crumble cake, but really, it's a tin of thick, broken flakes. Proper tin moisture, doesn't require much rubbing out. Leaves my fingers black & dusty.

The Latakia is in the front of this Balkan, but otherwise it's a very balanced blend. Don't let that fool you into thinking this has any strength, though. It's mild-to-medium strength all around: body, flavour, nic-hit. Not bad. It certainly tastes unique enough for a Balkan, but definitely light in the loafers. A great tobacco for practising your retrohale technique, 'cause it won't burn your nasal passage and provides the flavour you expect out of such an expensive tobacco.

Still strikes me as a hipster blend, i.e. mostly advertising and hype. But worth checking out once, anyway. I'll stick to the Balkan Sasieni.
