Reviews
I was told this was a condiment leaf, not typically smoked alone. But I'm trying to learn about different leaves and processes, so I decided to try it by itself. And it's honestly beautiful. The nicotine is extremely strong, but the flavors are just like people describe: dark fruit, spices, a lovely autumn-winter taste with mild sweetness. It burns so cool and easy that if you don't deliberately slow your puffing down, the nicotine will sneak up and clobber you!
