celtic talisman smell???

[Mike in Cincy]

Just got the tin of Celtic Talisman...

I took a whiff from the tin and was a little taken aback. Is it supposed to have a weird 'tinge' to it?

it actually smells like its been soaking in either urine or olive juice.

i dont smell the vanilla at all.

Does your Martini taste different lately?

lol...i hate the smell/taste of olives so I throw those two in the same category.

but seriously, I just don't know how to describe the smell.

Did you check for mold? Rare, but it has been known to happen.

 

[Mike in Cincy]

I did. I can't see any. The paper 'wrapping' has a few wet stains on it. I assume from the casing. I was expecting a scent similar to most of the cherry tobaccos i've used. Instead, it's pungent. Maybe I should email the seller. (pipeandtobacco.com) They may have received comments before on the smell (normal or not).

Maybe the person who put the tobacco in the tin was wearing Vegital Lilac.
