I'm a couple years late to the party it seems. I had 1792 on my list to try for a while, curious what tonquin was all about and equally intrigued by the love/hate reviews.

I have to say, this is going to be in my regular rotation for quite some time. The full mouth feel of this smoke is no joke, likely from the moisture levels from the new tin. This is a great smoke for those that want some additional flavor without going the Sutliff candy shop route.

I see brief mention of a difference in moisture between tinned and bulk (understandable). How, may I ask, significant is the difference and what effect does this have on the flake? I plan to keep several tins of this for aging but think buying some bulk for when the briar starts screaming "Feed me Seymour".
