Dipping My Toes Into The Tangiers Waters.


Recommended Posts

Albiet it the Lucid line [I still think flacid would have been funnier tongue.gif ]

Questions that arise now that's it's here.

  • It's drier than I expect (although not dry, but nahkla like wet, oily even) is that normal
  • It's been opened to the local air/environment for a good 24hrs before I will smoke it
  • Packing in a FUNNEL. Mod or not?
  • Holes in a funnel - Just over the Middle hole only, or around the tobacco?
  • Packing - overpack like regular Tangiers?
  • Heat, Exotica or Japanese style?
  • Heat - Package suggests LESS heat than regular tobacco - Is that right?

Thanks again to MNH for another package swiftly delivered 7 days door-to-door (Minnisota to england)

mix it, if it smells good its ready, i pack in funnel, no mod, to the top, fluffed (not overpacked). I use 3/4 of an exotica stick, do a spiral of holes from out to in.

Hey JD

Same cut as baccy as before. I use the same heat and personally pack it the same way, some say you can sprinkle it, but experiement and see what works for you. I use 3 coco's on a phunnel or 3 on a normal bowl. Dont use a mod. And dont worry about over packing it, make it even with the phunnel and ur good to go!

THAT'S interesting....

Any chance of a photo Scoop? I've not seen that kinda hole arrangement without a mod before.

Cheers,

  • It's drier than I expect (although not dry, but nahkla like wet, oily even) is that normal
    • It is rather on the dry side, so nothing to worry about there
  • It's been opened to the local air/environment for a good 24hrs before I will smoke it
    • Smell it every couple of hours..when it smells "right", pack it and smoke it!
  • Packing in a FUNNEL. Mod or not?
    • No need for mod!
  • Holes in a funnel - Just over the Middle hole only, or around the tobacco?
    • I personally do three rows, the ones close to the center are a little smaller.
  • Packing - overpack like regular Tangiers?
    • This is all about preference, I suggest you try packing it normally and over packing it later.
  • Heat, Exotica or Japanese style?
    • Exotica FTW. Cocos are also great.
  • Heat - Package suggests LESS heat than regular tobacco - Is that right?
    • That is correct. Tangiers can afford less heat. 3 Cocos or 3/4th of an Exotica should do.

I was wondering what you guys meant by acclimating the tobacco. Does it mean you have to open the package and let it lie in the open air for a couple hours until it smells right? Sorry if it's a noobquestion, but I had never heard of tangiers till a couple days ago

The people demand pictures!!! JD + Tangiers = Wicked fun times!

What are you going to be smoking first?


Not sure - the K Cherry scares me... So I'm going to probably opt for the brambleberry.

T- 4Hrs until smokey time.
