McClelland Mellow Mack
(2.80)
The mildest and smoothed of pipe tobaccos. This is a mild, smooth, rich pipe tobacco that improves throughout the smoke, owing to the slow release of the flavors inherent in the top quality leaf used in the blend. The aroma tends toward wild honey and, perhaps, pecan.

I had to try this one based on so many positive reviews. In the tin, the cookie smell is so wonderful that you're tempted to eat it, and it translates fairly well into the room note, but the flavor is too mild. I smoked bowl after bowl of it, hoping to pull some flavor out of it, but it wasn't there. Might be good for beginning smokers or those catering to others objecting to smoke odor.

A very nice classic American burley/cavendish blend. Very soft and mild, lots of smoke, lightly sweet and nutty. Burns easily and without effort. Primarily brown in color with a light sprinkling of black cavendish. It is lightly cased with something, but the casing is understated. Mellow Mack burns dry and clean (for an aromatic).
If you are a fan of the McClelland X series burleys, or like some of the old fashioned burley offerings, you will love this. This is a tasty yet simple burley tobacco.

I wanted a better all day smoke. Had read great reviews about Mellow Mac and to be honest, loved the name. So I tried a tin. I hate to go against the tide here, but I don't think it smells good and I don't think it is particularly mellow. This stuff didn't impress me in any category.

This is the best in the line of Premium Aromatics by McClelland IMHO. It is of course the least cased as well. The flavoring is subtle and the room note is phenomenal! The tin aroma is all chocolate and coffee to me. It definitely needs to be dried out, and even then smokes a little wetter than I prefer. I got a lot of comments when I smoked this in public, and all of them positive! I doubt I'll buy another can, but it is a worthy smoke.

Well I've been looking for a good aromatic to go to when the situation warrants and this is it. This with out a doubt the best aromatic I've ever smoked. Excellant burn, still has some moisture but tolerable. I really love the flavor problem is I'm kind of hooked on stronger blends now. I won't keep it on hand but I won't hesitate to buy it again when I'm in the mood for it.
