Is a pure Black Cavendish tobacco.

Notes of Cocoa, Walnuts and Coffee. Is very sweat and slow burning.

Is a ribbon, but large ribbon, is difficult to fill in the bowl, and also more difficult to mantain it lighted. But is good.

I was not impressed with this tobacco. I found that I had to put the pipe down and then relight it over and over again. After a bit, about half way down the bowl I had a very unpleasant taste.. bitter. I did mix it 25% with a untreated tobacco and found it more to my liking. It may be that I just don't like very heavy infused tobaccos. I will try another batch and see how that goes.

I quite liked this tobacco. Pitch black Cavendish with a strong coffee aroma. Easy to fill the bowl and maintain a light. The taste is less strong than one would expect from the aroma but nevertheless this tobacco provides a mild, fairly smooth alternative if you're looking for a mild aromatic. Also on the plus side is the fact that this blend smokes relatively dry for an aromatic and doesnt gunge up the pipe like many others do.

This is a very fine smelling tobacco for an aromatic, but after smoking this, I found out I do not like aromatics. The people around me at the coffee shop enjoyed it.

4/8/09 Upgrading to 4 stars. I work nights on a flightline and I find that this is the pouch I dip into every night. Yes I know it's sweet and light, but for something comfortable and pleasant everyday at work, it's one of the right stuffs.

Now on MY time, it'll be heavier or an English. At work, when I might have to put her down at any moment and get back to it later, this will do. Relights easily and holds flavor. Bulk prices, gonna be around awhile more and you can use it to blend, I like it.

3/20/09 Damp with very little rubbing to do. Mostly to break up some soft chunks and let air a few minutes.

Chocolate brownie with walnuts and a little coffee flavor. Great at the end of the day with a cup of strong(I drink it black)coffee. Tastes like the aroma from the bag. Room note is very pleasant with lots of smoke. This is really decent stuff.

Wish it were a little stronger, but can also be used to blend. We go on...

Mocha Black has a slight coffee aroma in the bag but little, if any, flavor at the match.

A very smooth but ultimately bland and boring black cavendish.

I have to agree with reviewer Joseph Durham, this is a great aromatic. I think this is one of the "sleeper" Mc Clelland bulk blends. My local B&M recommended this blend, and I have been smoking it for three months. The mocha flavor is fantastic and dosen't bite. The room note is excellent and will be apporved by all. Mocha Black is a nice change of pace from the VA and perique blends I enjoy.

My friend recommended I mix Mc Clelland X-90 burley 1/2 & 1/2 with Mocha Black which he smokes all the time. X-90 has a light chocolate flavor, and combined with the Mocha, makes for even a better tasting aromatic. Give this combination a try and you won't be sorry.

Highly Recommended

McClelland has some wonderful blends, which goes without saying. However, #620 Mocha Black is one of their best. This is a simple Black Cavendish, but a true enjoyment.

If you are like me and want a cup of coffee every now ?and-then or all the time, this is a blend for you. When you open the pouch you are surrounded by the rich aroma of a hot cup of java. It smells just as good as it tastes, if not better

Load the pipe pretty tight and pack it well. There are a lot of extras to this blend, and sometimes it can be difficult to keep it lit. However, if you have it burning good, you should have no problems at all. Before you even light the pipe take a quick draw. You can taste the mocha; if you think that the draw tastes good, wait until you light it.

The first puff is as good as the last. You will forever smell the aroma of coffee during this smoke session. You will either want another bowl or you will want a cup of coffee, or you can be like me and do both. The tobacco will burn to a nice pure white ash. There is absolutely no chance in tongue bite. I have had it smoking so much that the smoke just continued to roll and never received the slightest hint of tongue bite.

I recommend this to everyone that enjoys a cup of coffee or just loves aromatics. I have smoked this blend for about a year now. I have 4 ounces open, and I have some in the cellar. This is a definite ?forever blend.?
