NYC smoker of pipe tobacco and occasionally hand-rolled cigarettes.

I review and rate blends according to expectation, type, and comparison with other similar blends, not each blend on its own.

Have a recommendation, complaint, or you just wanna chat about blends? Email me at pinsky.leon@gmail.com
