Received this as a free sample. It had a strong sweet smell on opening the tin and was very wet. I was unhappy with the first bowl because it was hard to keep lit and it bit. Dried it out a lot and tried it again. Much improved. Tasted like it smelled, nice clouds of smoke, easy to keep lit. My wife asked what I was smoking because she liked the smell so much. If you like aromatics, this is definitely worth a try. Give it a lot of drying time. I don't know what the casing is, but I don't think it is possible to completely dry this stuff out.

Received this free sample and gave it a try. Found it to be quite enjoyable and just the right moisture content for myself. My wife relegates me to the garage to enjoy my leisurely past time. As I was enjoying the Molto Dolce, she stepped into the garage and said, "Now that is how a pipe should smell". Needless to say, she was quite appreciative of the nice, mellow aroma.

When you first open the tin the aroma is amazing. It's a little wet and pops and crackles when it's first toasted. It soon stops and burns cool with no bite. The room note is vey nice my wife loved it. The flavor was very nice. My only complaint is that it's so wet you really have to clean your pipe to get out all of the residue. If you let it dry out for a few days this seems to help.

I opened the tin and it was awesome. I enjoyed every minute of this smoke. The room note was excellent and my wife loved the smell both lit and unlit. Overall no complaints other than it was wet and I needed to wash my hands after packing the pipe.

I tried this a a pipe club meeting, and really enjoyed it. A little sweeter than I might want for every pipeful, but very nice, and everyone around loved the aroma. If I ever find any again, I will buy a tin.

This is easily my favorite. Great taste. Thought it was too wet but it seems to be the casing. As a cigarette smoker I tend to smoke very fast. There was no bite with this one. Got it as a free sample and now I'm sold.

The only really nice thing about this tobacco is it's room note and the delicious smell coming from the tin. It was extremely wet. So wet, I imagine you could wring water from it. I normally do not judge a tobacco on it's moisture, as most comes wet. Drying it is part of the "ritual". This however after an hour setting on the table under a ceiling fan was still as wet as it was in the tin. On lighting it stated popping like crazy, almost like it has oil in it or something. Taste was nothing really like the tin smell, just more of a plastic taste. I don't know where that came from but it wasn't really pleasant. Overall, I would not recommend this tobacco. It may be good if you are just graduating from captain black or something, but there is much better stuff out there.

I got a tin of this free from JR Cigar after purchasing some other pipe tobacco blends. Lovely tin note upon opening the lid, but a very wet tobacco offering. Literally drenched in casing. A predominantly dark leaf that was oily looking and stained my fingers with loading my pipe. While lighting, it sizzled as if I was lighting pure sugar. Surprisingly, it did not smoke hot. I could not actually taste any vanilla or caramel at first, but with slow smoking, both peaked through from time to time. There was a slight spiciness to the taste which I attributed to the honey - almost a combination of honey and sen sen, and mild at that. Not much in the way of tobacco flavor, and there was the ever present taste of PG. All in all, if you are looking for any tobacco taste whatsoever, look elsewhere. The room note may be appealing, but not enough of a draw to put this into regular rotation for me due to the lack of tobacco flavor and the PG presence. I can't recommend this one and most likely won't finish the tin. While I think about it, it reminded me of C&D's Pennington Gap which I did not care for.

Definitely a very damp tobacco due to the casing. I received a sample at my local pipe shop and after smoking it I immediately went back and bought a tin. It smells great and has a good mild but sweet flavor to it. Makes me want to have a hot chocolate. I also taste a little cinnamon in it which rounds it out well. I had to relight it a few times but that wasn't an issue. I can sometimes smoke a little quickly which can lead to severe tongue bite if I'm not careful but there wasn't any with this. The wife loves the smell of this, also which makes it a slam dunk to smoke in the house. A definite plus in the winter time. update Warning: this is a great smoke but it will leave your pipe a little soggy so make sure you want ONLY this in your pipe for a while.

Upon opening the tin you are greeted with what smells like a candy shop or bakery. Extremely moist to the point of goopy it stuck to my fingers while loading my pipe. You can smoke this tobacco hard with little or no tongue bite. I would think that if you are breaking in a new pipe that this tobacco could help build up your cake rather quickly. I smoked the whole tin before I came here to tell you what I think... It is OK. Extremely sweet, heavy on the caramel and vanilla. Great for aromatic lovers.

Reminds me of toffee truffles. For a juicy aromatic, this one has surprisingly little bite. Yum yum.

This was my first step away from a drug store tobacco and I must say it was a step in the right direction. When I opened the tin my wife grabbed it out of my hand and joked about eating it ! It was a very cool, pleasant smoke. It is a moist but not "soggy" and burns evenly. If you are into aromatics and like a hint of vanilla you might want to give this a try. It is, for me anyway, a definite winner. I give it 5 puffs up !
