Dan Tobacco Sweet Vanilla Honeydew

Great tobacco from the creation of Mr.M-A. The fresh and medium virginias combine perfectly with the aromas of honey and vanilla.

I like to enjoy it after a meal, a good coffee...it is an ideal dessert.

E.S

Tin note is sweet bread, vanilla and bubblegum, but it has a familiar chemical smell that I could not place, sort of like gasoline. It took me a while to pin point, then it hit me, that cheap pink industrial liquid handsoap they used to have in public buildings like restaurants, schools, factories etc. That bubblegum scented stuff, so strange. Don't get me wrong, I actually like the smell of that soap, and SVH, but it is an odd smell for a tobacco nonetheless. It tastes pretty good, surprisingly. Virginia forward and quality leaf, there is the bread, dough, hay, pepper and honey. The topping is mildly applied, the tobacco isn't wet, sticky or greasy and needs maybe 5 - 10 minutes to dry, if any. It brings vanilla confectionery and a nondescript fruitiness. Very smooth taste with a toasty, peppery finish. A terrific aromatic as it tastes strongly of virginia, with the topping being more noticeable to the room than the smoker. Very similar to Mac B's Vanilla Cream, except more vanilla/fruit and less floral/grass. Unfortunately, for me, SVH nips a little bit, not bad, but it's a sipper, a coaxer, and I think the flavour is worth it. Nice aftertaste too. I'd guess this will cellar alright as it's straight virginia and the topping is mild. 3.5 stars rounded down to 3, I could easily go the other way to 4, but I'm just not sold on it quite yet. Blame the tendency to nip my tongue if I stop paying attention. Not recommended for beginners, but definitely for the experienced who love good virginias with a little added sweetness. If you're a fan of MB Vanilla Cream, you will be a fan of Sweet Vanilla Honeydew. Final note, my gal says this one possesses her favourite room note... you've been informed.

As close to vanilla as you can get.Sometimes the taste gets overwhelming for me and i can't smoke it all day, but for the aromatic fan this is a must try blend.

a nice virgina lightely flavored with vanilla. a lite smoke and flavoring i find make it a very plesant blend. i am a fan of stright viriginas and this does not dissapoint

Very strong Vanilla/Honey smell out of the can, not as much while smoking it. Enjoyable!

First tobacco to give me tongue bite though.

Update:

The previous notes was made after smoking this tobacco using a pipe with a filter. Yesterday I tried it without filter. The taste is realy realy sweet. So I change the taste rank, but the recomendation rank remains the same.

The description says that it is very sweet aromatic tobacco, but I think it is quite mild indeed. Burns very stable and cool. No bite at all. The body is very mild, and if you try to draw hard trying get more nicotine, the smoke becomes a bit more hot.

I did not feel a vanilla smell, but honey smell is noticeable. Taste is very gentile and the aroma is very nice to me, but my boss told it stinks, so either she was in a bad mood or the tobacco is not so pleasant for no smokers.

I give 3 solid stars. Because this tobacco taste and aroma are too simple. Sometimes it is a good side of course. I think I will buy a new tin when finished current.

Super blend...my tin took a nice burn after just a moment. May need to rub it a little more but a wad poked in the pipe with a pocket below works well. Nice taste, no bite and no gurgle. A quality aromatic so I expect many will reject it out of hand. More the fool they.

I picked up a tin of this the other day and was pleasantly suprised by how good it was. It's a virginia tobacco which would not be my first choice, but it turned out to be a very good blend.

The sweetness of the Virginias is very good, then there's a nice touch of vanilla that comes through. This is one that you can force to bite if your a fast smoker, but it can be smoked cool too if you slow down.

Had no problems lighting and almost always finish the bowl without having to relight, but I must say that when I did have to relight the taste was very good right away, which is usually not the case.

I give it 3 solid stars because 4 stars are reserved for my favorite blends, but it is a solid smoke.

This is for the sweet tooth times for sure. It is very sweet and pleasant to smoke. Bites a tad but not where it cant be controlled with small samplings from the stem. I really do enjoy the flavorings in this one. Both are rather strong and stand out with every draw. Tends to favor the honey side but not by much. If you want a sweet tooth craving satisfier then this will fit the ticket. Burns down to a fine ash too. Most aromatics dont. It does leave a wet bottom in the bowl. A good Virginia follow up will remedy the situation.
