New old sticks

big a · 01-16-2025, 09:03 PM

Recently purchased a box of tat blacks. Noticed the box is dated June 2017. Would you be concerned or consider that a score?

I’d say a score.

Score! (so long as they've been stored correctly)

I was thinking the same thing I’ll give them a couple weeks and give one a try and see

Not to be a Debbie downer but for me the Blacks fell off in that Criollo spice fairly quickly. That being said, smoother and less spice may be just the place I was in at that time in my life.

I would love to hear your thoughts when you fire one up.

Most of my old Tat's are smoking pretty smooth and I like them.

Yes I agree they are not what they used to be. I still want them to be like the ones from the jar, but I still enjoy them. I’ll report back how these smoke when I light one up.
