The passage "drum isn't clumped together to form a brick of tobacco" isn't true for the package that I have in front of me (bought in Austria). Also, the paragraph that contains this statement, reads like advertisment and lacks references.--88.117.122.83 (talk) 10:56, 11 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I just purchased a pouch of Drum "light", and I feel the same as the above poster. The tobacco is indeed in a "brick", and is packaged in the same manner as other rolling tobacco. Djsire (talk) 10:29, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder why the earlier image was removed and replaced with a grainy low-res image.... 60.254.114.125 (talk)

Yes, Drum in the UK and the packets I have bought on the continent, are usually 40gram, smaller than other tobacco 50g packs, and it is lumped together. Due to the fact it appears American Drum is a totally different product to the rest of the world, I suspect that this paragraph applies only to the US version, and yes it does sound like an advert. 86.11.142.24 (talk) 14:32, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with the problems with the about the product section and have entirely removed it. Hopefully this is a welcome change. It did not provide any new or non-vague information. In reference to 40 gram bags in the UK, can you confirm that? Portions in the UK that I have encountered are usually 50g and double checking with a few online stores confirms that drum seems to come in 50g packets in the UK. Please consider that perhaps you were illegally sold a foreign packet imported to avoid tax. If someone wants to add more information perhaps the taste of the tobacco might be worth while including if it can be done so objectively. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.194.35.228 (talk) 05:41, 25 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
