(2.79)
Inspired by a compilation of 1933-1934 Benny Carter recordings by the same name, Dan Tobacco's Devil's Holiday is a gentle Black Cavendish with tips of Golden Virginia, flavored with sweet wild forest berries. Hellishly good and heavenly delicious.

As aromatics go, this one is way over the top. This stuff isn't so much produced with the pipe smoker in mind as it is for those in the vicinity of the pipe smoker. Sure, it provides a room note not unlike potpourri but it offers only goop, steam and tongue bite to the smoker. It is absolutely wretched.
I threw it in the trash after just one bowl.

This is an exceedingly sweet berry flavored cavendish blend. The flavouring is very strong, but you can catch the taste of the tobacco in the background. It would not bite me, and I was all but daring it to. The one downside I have found with this blend is that it leaves a ghost that Pac-Man would be afraid of (Glad I tried it in a Grabow). If you are looking for a fruity aromatic that is actually of good quality give it a try.
Edit: what was I thinking? It has been years and I still can not exorcise the ghost of this blend. No. Just no.

This tobacco sounded so good when it was described to me. But to be honest it is just a very strong berry flavored aromatic. The worst part of it is that my wife keeps asking when I will be smoking it again. The room note is that good. I hate to brake it to her, it will be a cold day in hell before that will happen again.

Unfortunately I was very disappointed when the tins of this arrived at the tobacco shop. The folks there were kind enough to order this in just because I requested it. I find this tobacco tasting and smelling extremely synthetic and quite bitter. I really thought Dan Tobacco would have done a better job with this flavoring by their description. It's kind of odd that I didn't like this since I really like fruity tobacco's but this has "fake flavoring" screaming from my pipe with every draw.
