Nothing impressive with this tobacco. I did not hate it, just found nothing really good about it either. I did not notice any "chemically" taste, just bland tobacco with no taste of vanilla (hardly any odor of it either). The only things I find notable about it is its very cheap price and the ability to blend it with other more tasty tobaccos and you don't notice it even there. Smoker's Pride makes a cherry that is horrible HOWEVER I found that by mixing three parts of this blend with one part of the cherry flavored, it turns something unsmokeable into something I actually can tolerate. I will not buy this product again but if given to me as a gift I would use it unlike the cherry which I can only recommend for use as a bug killer or plant fertilizer.

For a "drugstore tobacco" this one is great. Love the sweet room note. Perfect for when you want something very mild and aromatic. And you can't beat the price.

Smoker's pride is a cheap end blend but their Vanilla is worth while. It's not as tasty as other Cavendish based Vanilla blends but I do buy it now and then in bulk as a quick fire side smoke or when I'm mowin' the yard. It's very mild with a respectable room note. I don't really take pride in it and I hide it from my picky pipe smoking friends but I do find myself dipping out of the bag a couple times a month. But since I go for high end blends and only puff on my day off(sunday) now it sits there on the shelf most the time. It has a slightly bitter taste but the casing is pretty good for such a cheap blend. Not a bad bet but you will upgrade to a higher end Vanilla Cavendish soon. Tastes the best in a long stemmed pipe to mellow out the bitter bit.

Smooth mild Cavendish with a good dose of vanilla. Smells and tastes great. Not much more expensive than potting soil. What's not to like about this? Great stuff!
I think it'll be great blended with the cherry cavendish. I just mixed some to try out.
Yep! It makes a great blend! Neither overpowers the other. You can smell and taste both in a nicely balanced mix. Great stuff! A terrific "dessert aromatic." I love it! Be aware that any pipe you try cherry in will taste and smell like cherry for a good while if you switch back to other stuff, though.

I confess a fondness for vanilla aromatics, and this blend has vanilla flavor in abundance. The flavor lasts throughout the bowl, and burns to a clean ash. Not a wet or goopy blend, I have gone thru several pounds of this stuff and much enjoy the taste - only problem there is some element of this blend I don?t know if is the flavorings toppings or the base tobaccos that does not agree with my throat and sinuses, too bad as it is truly a bargain and otherwise much to my liking.

Okay, the topping is great, right out of the bag u just want to eat it. If u leave it in ur car, it will smell up the whole thing with a wonderful vanilla aroma. The downside, however is the tobacco used is not ur highest grade stuff which makes it hard to enjoy esp. if u have already been spoiled with some high grade tobacco. I dont know what it is, but it is hard to get througha bowl of this stuff without a thousand relights, maybe its just me, but i guess for what it is and the price is very cheap, it is an alright tobacco for the person on a seriously tight budget, but if u can, get some dunhill A21000 or MB Vanilla Cream, u will be amazed at the difference.

I like this blend. It makes a great cheap filler to add a little vanilla to the mix.It stands alone as a passable smoke which will never offend those around you. A great smoke it is not, but for $1.99 a pouch I am not real demanding.

I agree with the others that said you could do a lot worse for $1.99. Not great, but a decent smoke that would suffice in a pinch. If price was the only issue as to which tobacco to smoke, this would be a good choice.
I would say this is closer to Captain Black Gold than White. Captain Black White has a much nicer room aroma than Smokers Pride Vanilla.

Comparable in some respects to Captain Black White, but just a tad weaker. The vanilla wasn't as strong as I would have liked, but I got lots of "Mmmmmm.... that smells good!" from non-smokers who smelled it in the room. No adverse comments at all! Light, relatively pleasant, and certainly inexpensive. I added the rest of the pouch to the blend I'm making, and it smoothed it out pretty good. All in all, an excellent blending bulk, and one I'd like by itself at anytime, but especially for a mild, inoffensive "walking around" tobacco.

Nothing memorable here. An okay, inoffensive mixture for the novice piper. Light vanilla flavoring taste either disappoints or relieves the smoker, since the aroma from the (unsmoked) blend itself suggests a stronger flavoring. If one is looking for another inexpensive vanilla 'fix', Captain Black's White would be the one.
