Here is my progression over the last three years:
Month 1: Why doesn’t this 1-Q taste like cookies?
Month 3: Wow! Englishes are all I need because they don’t taste like cigarettes!
Month 6: Virginias are just Canadian Cigarettes.
Month : This Dark Fired stuff is so incredibly tasty, why isn’t it in every blend?
Month 12: Why is this Dark Fired stuff in almost every blend? Geez.
Month 15: I can finally enjoy the tobacco and the topping in Mac Baren blends like Mixture Scottish.
Month 18: I think I can taste nuts in this toasted burley!
Month 24: OTC burley (with coffee) was always brilliant! The rest of it is all unnecessary nonsense.
Month 27: This Full Virginia Flake doesn’t taste like cigarettes. Hmm.
Month 30: I could just survive on Virginia flakes of different kinds.
Month 36: I had to layer a bowl with two different kinds of Virginia flakes in to finish two jars, and could taste when the ember transitioned from one to the next.
I can taste the “lead component” in a JimInks review, and get some inkling of the “secondary players”, but I figure it’ll take a few more years to detect the stuff that’s listed as a “condiment.”
But I still don’t get Perique. Too tingly for my retrohale.
