Reiner Professional
(2.93)
A fine Virginia, burley and black cavendish that is seasoned for weeks in oaken whiskey barrels. Topped with a nut type flavor. A milder blend for the aromatic smoker.

I recently decided to have a fruit showdown with some other blends I was meaning to try (Rattray's Exotic Orange and Sillem's Red) - who will reign supreme?
Of the three, Professional had the least potent bag opening, though slightly. Kind of a berry, fruit mélange thing going on, that isn't to far off of a good quality cherry that had been dusted with some sweet Vanilla dust. Definitely pleasant, without artificial crutches. Not to sure about there being a Whiskey/Nut/Bean element however.
Springy, without much dampness to spare. Nice chunky bits, rough cut ribbons, and an occasional party-pooper stick. Once lit, it was the least flavorful of the three, but still maintained a 'soft flavor' which did compliment the natural smoke.
It is an aromatic you can smoke without breaking your teeth on sugar, has a quality to the product, and works as solid smoker.

A very mild-flavored, sweet-smelling aromatic. It does tend to give me tongue-bite. So I use a 9mm filter pipe when I smoke it. Why even bother to smoke it? Well, with the filter, I get a nice smooth flavor, and it gives me a dry, cool and relaxing smoke. And oh, the room note is awesome! My family loves it when I smoke this stuff.

Delightful, full-blown aromatic! Sadly I don't get too much from the nutty, nor the whiskey-ish notes, but moreso a distinct fruit-aroma! There's some nuttiness building up throughout the smoke, which I find to be pleasant. The fruits may be something along the lines of "Tropical Fruits". No tobacco flavor to be found, as said this is full-grown aromatic - but a good one for my perception! The flavorings aren't overly sweet, balanced - yet not what the description promises.
I'm teased to take away 1 star for that, as this tobacco was absolutely not what I was expecting it to be. But to be fair, it's a tasteful blend for aromatic lovers I suppose! so... 3/4 stars

As many know who've read my reviews I'm not much of an aromatic smoker. But, on occasion, I run across a good aromatic, and this is one of them. First, I love the cut on this blend, which I'd describe as something akin to a confetti cut. This type of cut both packs and takes a light well. The taste is interesting, slightly nutty, fruity, and with a hint of alcohol (Port? Whiskey? Maybe). Like most aro's it burns rather quick and a bit hot especially towards the bottom of the bowl, but these characteristics are not as pronounced as other blends. It was somewhat smooth but there was also a sharpness to it. I'd recommend a slow, measured draw. The scent, so others have told me, is "perfumy." The price point on this blend is high, but if you're going to drop money on a quality aro, which this is, it will be worth your investment.
