SilentBob Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 I ordered 500g of Tropical Punch with my last order, it smoked well for the first 3 times. Then, no flavor at all. I set it back out without the cover hoping it would re-acclimate. No such luck. I put the cover back on and put it away for almost 2 weeks, opened it up and now it barely has a smell. Never had a problem with Tangiers before and will continue to order it, but does anyone have any idea on how to save this? 400g of Tangiers is a lot of baccy goodness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zinite Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Eric mentioned in a thread today that you can put it in a sealed bag and freeze it for a few hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonthert Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 I wouldn't put it in a sealed bag. Just naked in the freezer. The aroma will return when you get it out of that humidity change. Alternately, you didn't stir it well enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the Green Apple Candy never had a good taste to it. It had a burnt taste but with out the burning. There was some hint of Green Apple Tasting but light to none. Static Starlight the first 150G were good but after that it had a weird smell and I would get a tabacco taste/feel of the mouth as if i smoked a cigar. I do have the tub usually open 24/7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentBob Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 Well my tropical punch has the smell back after taking it out of the freezer. I'm going to smoke some later and update the thread, hopefully the flavor came back too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just leave it out for a few hours in smaller portions and try that.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulldog_916 Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 I like the green apple candy. It's one of the stronger Tangiers flavors I've tried. It has staying power that only a few flavors really have. The last puff is as good as the first one. Most of the flavors start strong and mellow out to a good taste as the smoke goes on. This one just kicks you in the mouth until you're finished. Me likey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imsomint Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Can this have anything to do with why I cant smoke tangiers? I have tried every trick in the book and have produced thin, extremely harsh smoke. I have even left it out for an hour and let the cocos burn up, come out, pull on my hose and burn the back of my throat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
