So for those who don't know a Cosmopolitan is Vodka, some form of Triple Sec, cranberry, and lime juice. Assuming Vodka by definition has no discernable taste, we are left with an Aromatic that ought to just be citrus flavored, so was it?
I would say the bag certainly gives off a deep fruity smell, that is certainly strong, but less so than their California Dream, which is a living, breathing orange. Good chunky ribbon that wasn't overly damp, and fired up without issue. Once lit, I would have to agree with other reviewers that lemon was the predominant fruit here. It wasn't the kind of flavor I wanted to smoke, being (as they mentioned) sharp, blotting out most of the natural tobacco elements.
I would not be inclined to sip lemon juice, nor smoke it as it turns out. If lemon is your jam, then I would say this Cosmo mix does a good job delivering and would be a 3 star for you.
