All in all, personally I'd give it a one star but I'm giving it two because I'm not fond of burley and someone else may be.

Oh! Also, NEVER retro-hale with this. It has some kind of ammoniated smell to it and really did a number on my nasal passage.

This should be delightful for fans of lighter, aromatic fare. The taste is typically Danish (tastes like tobacco with a fruity background flavor), and burned clean rather than gooey. Not much punch though and I had to supplement this blend with a follow-up bowl of Five Brothers to satisfy the "Nic" craving.

Skandinavik Full Aroma is better than most chemically flavoured tobaccos I've tried. It is well-made, Dutch-style cavendish-processed leaf with a subtle fruit note in the background. The taste is very light but it's there, and it smokes smoothly and cleanly. I submit that if you are a habitual aromatic smoker you might really enjoy this. It is also an obvious friendly choice for public smoking.

In a week's time the odour of fermentation was gone, leaving behind a nice light aroma of fruit, predominantly cherry. I have been smoking it for more than a week now. As aromatics go, Full Aroma goes reasonably well. The casing is mildly applied, and the tobacco burns dry and - for an aromatic - fairly cool. But for all these virtues the tobacco itself is not of very high quality. Amphora scores over it in this regard.

In all fairness I must add that I do not know exactly what I am reviewing: does fermentation in the tin substantially alter the character of the tobacco, and if so, for better or for worse?

Close but not the same. It is milder and the tin aroma is also different - but not by much.

But, at least, there is something close to it!

The flake cut is great, and crumbles very easily between my fingers. This tobacco is a pleasure to pack, all the while inhaling the scent as I crumble it over my desk.

It can get hot fast, so I have to take it easy and not draw too deeply. For the price, this is a winner if you want a very mild smoke.

Let me also mention that there is nothing "bunk" about this blend. A lot of locally available tobaccos that I've tried lately have been of poor quality, regardless of price. This one delivers a clean taste through and through.

Agree with a couple of reviewer comrades that this tobac is better in a smaller bowl and needs to be sipped as it can roast on the heavy draw. Found it to be an excellent mixer, satisfying my craving for sweet and fruity aro blends. Added some "condiment" Paladin Black Cherry and it kicked up the taste quite superbly. Solid, steady smoking pleasure from our Danish friends. Happy hunting...

Like with Regular, filling and lighting were a breeze. Full Aroma was more Virginia forward than the Regular, but very mild as Virginias go. It was a much fuller smoking experience than the Regular and did not smoke harsh for me. It had a nice spiciness to it. A mild fruitiness did translate into the smoke, along with a mild tobacco presence with that. Not a cloying aromatic by any means. Is Full Aroma better than Regular? Not necessarily, as it depends what you are after. A simple, unadulterated smoke would be best served by Regular. If you want an aromatic presence with some flavoring, Full Aroma would fit the bill nicely. Although I prefer the Regular overall, I can recommend either as a pleasant smoking experience - especially recommended for newbies to pipe smoking. I can't say if Full Aroma is similar to Amphora Red as noted by several reviewers, since I never had the opportunity to try that tobacco. Although milder than what I am used to, I would sum it up as a solid smoking experience.
