Wow, coconut on opening the tin.
Two-match light; practically undetectable vanilla; slightly more detectable melon; slight hint of coconut and base VA comes through mid-bowl; surprisingly, not too sweet.
~~~ Worthwhile whim investment.

I've never been overly fond of what I call "blatant" aromatics, but 'Sweet Vanilla Honeydew' is a pleasant surprise. The aroma seems to indicate that the flavour of the tobacco is sweeter than it is. I can taste quality Virginias in this mixture, with only a slight element of sweetness present. The room aroma, however, led a friend of mine who visited me shortly after I had had a bowl of 'Sweet Vanilla Honeydew' to ask what I had been baking.
Good stuff! If I ever become primarily an aromatics fan, I'll upgrade my rating.

I have downgraded my recommendation to "Might try it again, but will not keep it on hand". I still think this is a fine tobacco, but I have come to realise precisely why I don't care for aromatics that much...and this is the epitome of an aromatic.

A mild and smooth aromatic blend that has quality tobacco as its base. Not over-cased, this tobacco burns clean and dry.
Probably a great choice for lovers of aromatics, but for me, not one that I'm likely to purchase again - when spending this much for a tobacco, I'm much more inclined to buy a virginia flake.
