It contains more burley than I expected, but, as you mentioned, it is thoroughly enjoyable.I have been carefully using a pipe knife, however, i never seem to be able to keep the walls smooth, i do not take a lot off and use the blade gently. I may stick with this method, instead of £25 for a reamer i will get another 2 different tobaccos to try.
Reamers often remove as much wood as cake, so I use a knife. I also use cotton balls (as opposed to salt) and Everclear.
