W.O. Larsen Scarlet Passion
(2.93)
A superior aromatic mixture characterized by extra mild black cavendish tobaccos, mature Virginia and a touch of burley. It has been flavored with an extremely mild blend of sweet vanilla type flavors and fresh fruity notes to obtain a longmlasting taste and a very pleasant aroma. Easy to fill into a pipe, slow burning with a cool smoke.
Notes: Previously known as "Sweet Aromatic", it was renamed in accordance to EU regulations.

This was my first pipe tobacco I ever tried and must I say, it is tasted somewhat bland compared to many other blends. When I first got it, I expected the taste to be as glamorous as how people praised pipe tobacco in those pipe forums, but it was , like I said, bland. As for tongue bite, take it slow because the bowl tends to get real hot with this puppy.
In retrospect, it was a horrible starter pipe tobacco for me and it still sits in my drawer till this day. I am not sure if i'll be able to finish it...

I used to smoke this when it was called Sweet Aromatic. Bought my first tin from Knox Cigar.
Lots of vanilla and chocolate notes on a cavendish base. This was the first tobacco that made me think, "I could smoke a pipe for the rest of my life." It smoked wet and required some relights but I loved the flavor and aroma.
The reason I give this two stars is because my palette has expanded. I still like aromatics but there are better ones this out there.

A quite decent aromatic with a pleasantly sweet-tart flavouring which remind of vanilla and red berries (something like red currant and sour cherry) it smokes easy, cool and is absolutely tolerable to the mouth, the hitch is that it has just a bit of tobacco taste.

Of course good quality for a Larsen product but again... nothing special, I thought it would have the fine burning and the full taste of "Mellow Mixture" combined with some stronger aroma but I got disappointed. Not the tobacco I expected, as it is one more ordinary Danish blend.
