    Experiment gone horribly wrong

    I stepped into a local tobacconist. Always looking for new tastes, I saw a small tin of Oliver Twist "senior." I bought a tin for 6 bucks.

    Eager to try it, I tore off a bit and popped it in. Immediately, the most horrible taste imaginable filled my mouth. Seriously, it was the most terrible thing I have ever tasted in my life. It tasted like burnt tobacco with seasoned salt and tons of smoke flavoring thrown in. Like a BBQ seriously gone wrong. I almost vomited. I immediately spat it out, and went back in to buy a bottle of water. I swished and spat some more. I saw another twist tobacco product that said "sweet" twist from Denmark. This one tasted burnt as well, like tobacco that had sat in a fresh pile of manure with smoke flavoring added for disgustingness. I threw the tin in the trash and the twist out on the highway. The taste in my mouth was lingering. Thank God I had some Red Man in my glove box. It was warm, but far better, and got most of the taste out of my mouth. It took two big quids to eliminate the horrible flavor.

    I seriously want to meet the people who manufacture this shit, and punch them all in the face. Just thinking of the taste makes me queasy.

    was it expired? I know of Oliver Twist, but the "senior" variety sounds weird.

      It sounds like you got both that are "original" flavor. I don't mind them, but it's not my favorite. I'm partial to the mint and licorice varieties.

        Oliver twist licorice is a favorite of mine, but have liked most the others I have tried. Ii always have some in the freezer, but may be every 3 months before I think to have one. But I have always loved them.

          Rather visit your tobacconist again. OT Senior was discontinued 3 years ago! No wonder that it tasted weird.

          Cheers!
