So I tried plug tobacco

[devilock76]

Was at a place I buy eliquid, and they always have lots of interesting loose tobacco and us dry snuff there. Noticed a little package that was "Cannonball Plug".

So I bought it.

Disclaimer, I have dipped, snussed, those oliver twist things, e-cig, cigs, pipe, cigar etc...

I bought this as looking at it it seemed less moist (sweet) than I hear plug is so I figured why not.

Honestly not that impressed with it. Flavor was ok but still on the sweet side for me, hit was nothing to write home about either. Maybe I did not chew it enough...

Plug is convenient for carrying, and gives a nice deep south/west feel when using it, but I prefer loose leaf.

Part of me is thinking I just might not be a chewing tobacco kind of person. Dip is fine and he way snus is going has been the go to, but not sure about chew.

Out of curiosity isn't chew usually air dried and not flue cured?

I believe a large part is air-cured but some dark fired could be added in some products.

Tried the cannonball awhile back and liked the nostalgia about using something that was popular at one time. It was sweet flavored with a lot of drip.

The trend moved towards loose leaf maybe because it is faster/easier to grab a pinch? Plugs you need a knife or strong bite.

RedMan plug was good too.

I think you can smoke it in a pipe too, I have smoked Redman plug in a pipe once, i don;t recommend it! Stick to the loose leaf for chewin

A friend gave me a plug of chewing tobacco.
I searched on youtube and found only two videos about it and the people i saw chewed it directly, with all the paper around it.
I was wandering if it's the right way, or if the paper is not to be chewed with the tobacco.
I think I'll cut it by a knife, or break by hands, because my one is very dry, I think it will be hard to bite. May it be used if dried out or it's gone?
Thanks guys.
