"Horrible, Heavily Dyed Stick"
I love this line in the Sungrown and Cammie wrappers, so I was excited when I won a 10 pack at auction. First thing I noticed is that the quality of these where no where near that of the other versions that I enjoy on a regular bases. The wrappers on these where very rough, and had a dull jet black finish that was obviously heavily dyed. Looked like they had been wiped down with charcoal or lamp black. I tried to smoke 4 of these over a period of 3 months, all with the same results. They where so tannic and mouth drying that I couldn?t get past the first inch, even with a full glass of water. Burn was bad and two where loaded with stems. I forced myself to go a couple inches on the last one, and it so scorched my palate that I couldn?t enjoy another smoke the rest of the day. The remaining six went into the trash. I can only hope that I was sent some mislabeled junk by mistake, as I?ve found this line in other wrappers to be top notch.
