When i opned a bag the tobacco flavoring was a extramly strong sweet vanilla (not a good way) then ventilated an hour and after that a flavoring like a really pleasant vanilla ice cream The taste is pleasant vanilla, not too strong but dominant and not bite a tounge.

I loved opening the pouch for the first time, it was a pleasant smell. After packing my pipe, I couldn't wait to smoke this tobacco. When I smoked I could really taste vanilla, but it tasted a little bit artificial. Overall the artificial didn't really bother me and I would recommend this tobacco. But if you really what to enjoy Alsbo tobacco, I would recommend mixing this blend with the cherry flavored blend. I think that is sensational.

This tobacco has really strong vanilla aroma, with addition of something like pistachio or almond. At the beginning, tobacco taste is overwhelmed by this strong topping. After burning about 1/3 of a pipe, taste gets more balanced and from this moment, smoking starts to being quite pleasant, with strong aromatic and mild sweetness of burning tobacco. Biggest disadvantage of this tobacco - it is very wet and hard to burn, with tendency to extinguish. All kind of filters and denicool crystals, or/and drying before smoking are in my opinion necessarily here. In spite of all, I like this tobacco, really nice aroma, good price and easy to get in almost every newsstand in my city.

A nice "little brother" of Alsbo Black. Suitable for an afternoon relax. Its ice cream in smoke form. Sip it slowly for no tongue bite.

My very first pipe tobacco. I immediately liked the smell as I opened the pouch.
It has a very nice natural tobacco and vanilla taste and some whiskey undertones. The room note is pleasant and is as a pipe tobacco should be. I recommend this blend as a cost effective tobacco. I had not issues with the burning of this blend, tongue bite or gunk in the bowl. Unlike the Also Black which I found did seem to burn a little hot and did get wet towards the end.

If you got a leather tongue, this is your tobacco. It´s a good begginers choice to notice what is a tongue bit, but also a full pleasure taste. If you can smoke this, you can smoke everything. It´s one of the few tobaccos that really tastes vanilla, maybe because the satured flavoring. Just say: A cheap and easy burning blend but a little wet smoking.
