I've been very impressed over all with this brand--it is an easy smoke and takes heat like a champ. That said, I would be remiss if I didn't discuss the price point--I am not convinced that the ~50% higher price than, say, Tangiers, translates into a product of ~50% better quality. And I do feel a touch cheated by that 50 gram difference. All that said, I would definitely recommend giving this a try at least once; you won't regret it.
