Alsbo Silver

(2.25)
The remarkable Danish with the unique flavor. Alsbo Silver is the ultimate Black Cavendish blend, Golden Virginia tobaccos have been transformed into this Cavendish blend, and special flavors consisting of Vanilla styles with sweet oriental notes complement this refined blend. Truly a pipe tobacco appreciated by the pipe smoking connoisseurs for his taste and experience, and by their friends for the delightful room-note.

I got a hint of cocoa along with the vanilla topping. There's a light fruitiness that I assume comes from the topping. There's a minor grassiness from the cavendish-style Virginia along with a few drops of honey. The Orientals are sweetly mild with a little spice. Has a mild nic-hit. Can bite if puffed fast. Burns fast, so it needs to be sipped. Has a consistent, mildly complex flavor, leaves little dampness in the bowl, and requires few relights. Not quite an all day smoke.

The tobacco shop near me had some Alsbo and I thought it might make a nice aromatic. Of the available ones in that store, this had the highest rating on this site. It has a very heavy pouch note but when smoked the flavor is not as bad.

I'm not one for aromatics, but this might be good for someone who is interested in pipe smoking. The tobacco is at a very good moisture level surprisingly and can be packed as is. The room note is very pleasant and usually gets positive remarks when I smoke it at bars.

Be careful because this will bite and heat up your pipe if smoked too fast.

This tobacco is sold in tins, or in beautiful elegant pouchs, aluminized foil, silvered externally and gold internally.

This is a Black Cavendish tobacco, processed from Golden Virginia and flavourized with Vanilla and Oriental Fruits.

Slow burning, amazing and mild, Rich in fruity flavors, notes of Chocolate/Cocoa, mainly in the room smoke.

Fantastic,very good and no tongue bite.

I have no words to described this... is almost the best Black Cavendish and one of best aromatics that I smoked!

Great stuff, Wonderful! Fully Recommended. Try this.
