Tambolaka "Tambo" Pipe Tobacco

This stuff really packs a whallop!!

I've probably smoked 75 g of Tambolaka, and it is certainly the strongest tobacco that I've smoked, but I like that. Eat before you smoke a bowl. If GH Brown Rope is a ten on the nicotine scale, Tambolaka is a fifteen.

If you buy it by the stick you get some 130 g for maybe a dollar more than the prepared tobacco. But be prepared for an arduous tobacco preparation-it took me 4 hours to prepare ~100 g the first time I tried it. That stick comes very dry and very, very dense.

For me, it's the most profound tasting tobacco that I've smoked.

Commensenseman on Puff.com has the most commentary about this tobacco online that I have seen.

Does the rope have the same cat turd look that SG XXX black rope has?

No, it looks like a small can. Think like a can of peas or peaches.

I was thinking about the tobacco itself. XXX rope comes in a tin, but when you open it, well it looks like a turd.

This was taken from the guy who ran the GB. There was a plastic wrapping around it, and the rope was used to keep it all bound together.
