Described as in picture
It is ok to smoke but I’d say is more for cup of tea it ain’t what’s needed to relieve a smoker from its weight as blokes the nostril meaning tabaco is better to smoke than this (not provider fault,the seller) but whom so ever did in fact suggest it as tabaco replacement but am happy with product thank you

Great value!
I could not believe the amount I got for my money; smokes well; not quite the same pull on the smoke as the more expensive brands of marshmallow leaves.

Brought as a tobacco substitute
As a tobacco substitute it is terrible! I was expecting it to smell/ taste sweet but instead it smells & tastes like dried grass (lawn clippings) and has loads of stems and stalks in it. I’ve smoked 3 cigs of it now & no more, it’s going with the rest of the lawn - on the compost heap!

Taste
Alright product, full of stems but resolved if you buzz through a grinder. Nice alternative to tobacco, but tastes like crap.

Needs grinding before rolling
Good taste but it definitely needs grinding before rolling .. lots of small spiky stalks which ruin rolling papers.. this should be done before bagging and selling but it does have a good taste when smoking .
