Relatable Flavors:

  • dried wood

Nice simple review Mace. Would you compare this as similar to INW Garuda Absolute?

Thanks.

I wouldn't really liken it to Garuda. Turkish lacks the leafy taste that Garuda has.

This'll definitely be going into my collection then. Sounds like a perfect additive to round off a number of tobacco bases without the "green" effect which can be tough to weed out of a recipe.
