The topping is sweet Irish with a very slight sour note, and tones down the tobaccos to a moderate extent. The burley provides a slight nuttiness and earth as the lead component. The golden cavendish adds an extremely mild honey hit and a little grass. Hardly has any nicotine. It's an all day smoke with a consistent flavor that burns at a reasonable pace, but it may bite if you puff hard. Leaves a little moisture in the bowl, and requires an average number of relights. Has a decent after taste. It's pleasant enough for the mild aro smoker, but overall, suffers from lack of body and flavor dimension.

House Aromatic from Kramer’s is another old style American aromatic blend. Like Cary Grant, the topping doesn’t get in the way of the tobacco flavor. The TR description of House Aromatic lists only Cavendish, but Burley is for me what dominates the tobacco flavor. The topping is lightly added and is sweet, but HA doesn’t have the bolder flavor of Kramer’s Cary Grant blend. It can burn hot if pushed. House Aromatic isn’t a bad blend, but wouldn’t be something that I would pursue in the future as it doesn’t stand out in the crowd.

Kramer's - House Aromatic.
It's quite a coarse mixture that includes a few pieces of broken flake. The aroma from the pouch is a little aromatic, but not overly so. It's a medium brown blend with a few lighter and darker specks. Moisture's good.
The smoke's good, but nothing special. The Burley accounts for much more flavour than the Cavendish, being nutty and rustic. The topping comes across as a definite taste, having some alcoholic piquancy, but isn't too heady, at all: mild. It burns fairly cool but can sneak a bit higher if it's pushed too hard.
Nicotine: mild to medium. Room-note: quite nice.
Kramer's House Aromatic? Two stars:
Somewhat recommended.
