Right out of the gate here: how is this so cheap? The regular price is under $3 just about everywhere, and I picked it up for the regular $2.29 price at my usual supplier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I felt like I was taking a chance on this, given how it costs so much less than… well, just about everything. I thought the can looked cool, and wanted to try a strong potion without spending a lot. Enter: The Emperor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a regular white portion, you’re going to get a lot of the same ol’ “it’s kinda like tea and tobacco”, but I found The Emperor to be quite a bit more unique. There’s a distinct sourness to it that almost has the tang of a quality sourdough bread. It passes after 20 minutes, give or take. It grabs a little bit, though, and is the strange sort of flavor that — at least, if you like<\/em> sourdough bread — makes you want to come back for more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next to Tre Ankare, this is near the top of my list for “regular” white portions I’ve found myself craving. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The portion itself is quite comfortable, and a little on the big side. Not the most discreet thing in the world, but you won’t double-check to see if you accidentally bought slim portions. And coming in at a hefty 2% nicotine, it never left me wanting. In fact, I hardly mind being out of cigarettes at the moment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of nicotine, I’ve found that higher nicotine levels tend to produce a harsher drip that leaves my throat feeling scratchy. Not so with The Emperor. The drip isn’t appreciably different than a regular strength portion. Really impressive. And to top it off, the drip is pretty reserved. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
